National Football League on television
Since 1998 , the NFL has owned the rights to game broadcasts once they air -- a copyright disclaimer airs either before the start of the second half or after the first commercial break of the second half , depending on the broadcaster ( `` This telecast is copyrighted by the NFL for the private use of our audience ( and ) any other use of this telecast or ( of ) any pictures , descriptions or accounts of the game without the NFL 's consent is prohibited . '' Beginning in the 2016 Playoffs , this was slightly changed to `` This broadcast is copyrighted by NFL Productions for the private use of our audience . Any other use of this telecast of any pictures , descriptions or accounts of the game without the consent of NFL Productions is prohibited . '' ) In the 2017 preseason , this was reverted to the original version . Only the NFL Network can re-air games and they choose a few each week .

Cleveland Browns
Over the years , the Browns have had on - again / off - again periods of wearing white for their home games , particularly in the 1970s and 80s , as well as in the early 2000s after the team returned to the league . Until recently , when more NFL teams have started to wear white at home at least once a season , the Browns were the only non-subtropical team north of the Mason - Dixon line to wear white at home on a regular basis .
12th man (football)
Coaches can take steps to minimize the effect of the crowd noise on their teams . Some American football teams bring large speakers to their practice fields and broadcast loud noises such as jet engines to prepare their teams for the anticipated noise level . Crowd noise tends to diminish after a long lull in play , such as a pause for instant replay . Former NFL player Brian Baldinger speculates that some coaches draw out reviews as part of a coaching strategy to quiet the crowd for their next play .
Curling
Much of the yelling that goes on during a curling game is the skip calling the line of the shot and the sweepers calling the weight . The skip evaluates the path of the stone and calls to the sweepers to sweep as necessary to maintain the intended track . The sweepers themselves are responsible for judging the weight of the stone , ensuring the length of travel is correct and communicating the weight of the stone back to the skip . Some teams use stopwatch timing , from back line to the nearest hog line as a sweeping aid . Many teams use the Number System to communicate in which of 10 playable zones it is estimated the stone will stop .
NFL Kickoff Game
The Kickoff Game was introduced in the 2002 season , under the leadership of then -- NFL marketing executive John Collins and then -- NFL Senior Vice President of Special Events Jim Steeg . It was conceived as an effort to boost economic recovery in the New York and Washington areas in the wake of 9 / 11 . It was considered a success , increasing NFL sponsorships by $1.9 billion over the next 14 months .
New Orleans Pelicans
During the first two seasons in New Orleans the Hornets competed in the NBA 's Eastern Conference . The 2004 -- 05 season saw the team move to the Western Conference 's Southwest Division to even the number of teams in each conference after the Charlotte Bobcats started play in their inaugural season of that same year . In a season marred by injury to the team 's three all - stars , the team finished the year with a franchise - worst record of 18 -- 64 .
Cowboys–Redskins rivalry
To build the roster of an expansion team , Dallas was allowed to pick certain players from certain teams per League rules . In addition to selecting 3 players from the Redskins roster , the Cowboys traded their first round ( # 2 - Norm Snead ) and sixth round ( # 72 - Joe Krakoski ) draft choices in the 1961 NFL Draft to the Redskins in exchange for Pro Bowl quarterback Eddie LeBaron , convincing him to come out of retirement to become the franchise 's first starting quarterback .
2018 NFL Draft
Five quarterbacks were selected in the first round for only the third time in the history of the draft ; the first since the 1999 NFL Draft . Also , a pair of siblings -- safety Terrell Edmunds and linebacker Tremaine Edmunds -- were both drafted in the first round , marking the first time brothers have been selected in the opening round of the same draft .
National Football League Rookie of the Year Award
Every week during the NFL regular season , five finalists are chosen for the Pepsi NFL Rookie of the Week award , and the winner is determined by fan voting online . Those results are used to help determine the finalists for the Rookie of the Year award . Voting occurs throughout the postseason and concludes the week before the Super Bowl . More than 350,000 votes were cast for the inaugural award in 2002 , 1.002 million votes in 2009 , and more than 1.59 million votes in 2010 . Since 2011 , the winner of the Pepsi Rookie of the Year award is announced at the NFL Honors show the night before the Super Bowl .
Logos and uniforms of the Pittsburgh Steelers
Although both Rooney and NFL Films 's Steve Sabol liked the look ( Sabol mentioned that you could easily tell when the Steelers played ) , the players did n't , adding that they looked like clowns or Batman , which is likely where the `` Batman '' rumors began . Due to primitive washing techniques at the time ( as well as NFL teams frequently reusing the uniforms , unlike today where current athletic supplier Nike gives teams new equipment every game ) , the Steelers had trouble washing the uniforms because the gold triangle faded easily . Rooney was even asked on a radio show in Dallas when the team was playing the Cowboys on October 30 , 1966 if the team was wearing the uniforms for Halloween .
Monday Night Football
For the 2015 season , the graphics were completely overhauled to match the motif that has been used for ESPN 's NFL studio programming since the year prior . However , the studio programming uses the new motif only for introductions and transitions , while the actual insert graphics use the standard ESPN package used for SportsCenter and all other sports . Meanwhile , MNF uses the NFL motif for all insert graphics , not just introductions and transitions . Most notably , the NFL motif uses a horizontal score bar across the bottom of the screen , whereas the standard graphics package uses a score box . The layout is standard , with teams on the background of their color , with timeout indicators also displaying in team colors . Experimentally , the score bar `` auto - hides '' itself during plays , though it is shown permanently during the final two minutes of each half and , if necessary , overtime . This is also the first time that ESPN has used the full 16 : 9 frame for its NFL graphics .
I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For
`` I Still Have n't Found What I 'm Looking For '' has been acclaimed by many critics and publications as one of the greatest songs of all time . In 2001 , the song was ranked at number 120 on the RIAA 's list of 365 `` Songs of the Century '' -- a project intended to `` promote a better understanding of America 's musical and cultural heritage '' -- despite the group 's Irish origins . In 2003 , a special edition issue of Q , titled `` 1001 Best Songs Ever '' , placed `` I Still Have n't Found What I 'm Looking For '' at number 148 on its list of the greatest songs . In 2005 , Blender ranked the song at number 443 on its list of `` The 500 Greatest Songs Since You Were Born '' . In 2010 , Rolling Stone placed the song at number 93 of its list of `` The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time '' . Los Angeles Times critic Robert Hilburn called it U2 's `` Let It Be '' , in reference to the Beatles song . The staff of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame selected `` I Still Have n't Found What I 'm Looking For '' as one of 500 Songs that Shaped Rock and Roll .
Mercedes-Benz Stadium
The stadium also includes features specific for college football use . It opened with two oversized locker rooms , each capable of housing 100 players , reflecting the much larger size of college football rosters compared to those of the NFL . However , the stadium did not initially include another feature important in that context -- staircases connecting the seats to the field , making it difficult for bands to enter the field for halftime shows ( most NFL teams , including the Falcons , do not have bands ) . According to ESPN , `` You can bet , after the ( 2017 ) Chick - fil - A Kickoff Games exposed the oversight , the stairs are there now . ''
History of the Cleveland Browns
The AAFC proposed match - ups with NFL teams numerous times during its four - year existence , but no inter-league game ever materialized . That made Cleveland 's entry into the NFL in the 1950 season the first test of whether its early supremacy could continue into a more established league . The proof came quickly : Cleveland 's NFL regular - season opener was against the two - time defending champion Philadelphia Eagles on September 16 in Philadelphia . The Browns lit up the Eagles ' vaunted defense for 487 total yards -- including 246 passing yards from Graham and his receivers -- in a 35 -- 10 win before a crowd of 71,237 . This decisive win quashed any doubts about the Browns ' prowess . Behind an offense that featured Graham , Groza , Motley , Lavelli and running back Dub Jones , Cleveland finished the 1950 season with a 10 -- 2 record , tied for first place in the Eastern Conference . After winning a playoff game against the New York Giants , the Browns advanced to the NFL championship match against the Los Angeles Rams in Cleveland . The Browns won 30 -- 28 on a last - minute Groza field goal . Fans stormed the field after the victory , carting off the goalposts , ripping off one player 's jersey and setting a bonfire in the bleachers . `` It was the greatest game I ever saw '' , Brown later said .

History of the Cleveland Browns
Without Graham , the Browns floundered in 1956 . Injuries to two Browns quarterbacks left relative unknown Tommy O'Connell as the starter , and Cleveland finished with a 5 -- 7 record , its first losing season . Dante Lavelli and Frank Gatski retired at the end of the season , leaving Groza as the only original Browns player still on the team . While the Browns ' on - field play in 1956 was uninspiring , off - the - field drama developed after a Cleveland - based inventor let Brown test a helmet with a radio transmitter inside . After trying it out in training camp , Brown used the helmet to call plays during the pre-season with long - time backup George Ratterman behind center . The device allowed the coach to direct his quarterback on the fly , giving him an advantage over franchises who had to use messenger players to relay instructions . The Browns used the device off and on into the regular season , and other teams began to experiment with their own radio helmets . Bert Bell , the NFL commissioner , banned the device in October 1956 . Today , however , all NFL teams use in - helmet radios to communicate with players .
History of the San Diego Chargers
In the 1961 season , their first in San Diego , the team 's defense made forty - nine pass interceptions . The term , `` Fearsome Foursome '' described the 1961 Chargers ' defensive players ' lineup . The anchoring players were Earl Faison and Ernie Ladd . The `` Fearsome Foursome '' phrase was later used by other NFL teams . In 1961 , the Chargers lost the championship to Houston by ten points to three with 29,556 patrons attending the game at Balboa Stadium .
Los Angeles Chargers
They played ten years in the AFL before the merging of the league into the older NFL . Their only coach for the ten - year life of the AFL was Sid Gillman , a Hall of Famer who was widely recognized as a great offensive innovator . The early AFL years of the San Diego Chargers were highlighted by the outstanding play of wide receiver Lance `` Bambi '' Alworth with 543 receptions for 10,266 yards in his 11 - AFL / NFL - season career . In addition he set the pro football record of consecutive games with a reception ( 96 ) during his career . With players such as Alworth , Paul Lowe , Keith Lincoln and John Hadl , the high - scoring Chargers won divisional crowns five of the league 's first six seasons and the AFL title in 1963 with a 51 -- 10 victory over the Boston Patriots . They also played great defense , as indicated by their professional football record 49 pass interceptions in 1961 , and featured AFL Rookie of the Year defensive end Earl Faison . The Chargers were the originators of the term `` Fearsome Foursome '' to describe their all - star defensive line , anchored by Faison and Ernie Ladd ( the latter also excelled in professional wrestling ) . The phrase was later appropriated by various NFL teams . Hilton sold the Chargers to a group headed by Eugene Klein and Sam Schulman in August 1966 . The following year , the Chargers began `` head to head '' competition with the older NFL with a preseason loss to the Detroit Lions . The Chargers defeated the defending Super Bowl III champion New York Jets 34 -- 27 before a record San Diego Stadium crowd of 54,042 on September 29 , 1969 . Alworth once again led the team in receptions with 64 and 1,003 yards with four touchdowns . The team also saw Gillman step down due to health and offensive backfield coach Charlie Waller promoted to head coach after the completion of the regular season . Gillman did remain with the club as the general manager .
2019 AFC Asian Cup
The draw of the final tournament was held on 4 May 2018 , 19 : 30 GST , at the Armani Hotel in the Burj Khalifa in Dubai . The FIFA rankings of April 2018 were used as basis for the seeding . The 12 teams that secured their place in the final tournament by the end of the second round of the qualification process were placed in Pots 1 and 2 while the remaining teams which qualified during the third round were allocated to the remaining pots . As hosts , the United Arab Emirates were seeded into Pot 1 . The 24 teams were drawn into six groups of four teams , with the hosts placed in position A1 . Four renowned Asian players : Ali Daei , Sun Jihai , Sunil Chhetri and Phil Younghusband were chosen for the seeds .
National Football League team captains
Because of the nature of the game , most teams include their starting quarterbacks as an offensive captain . The starting quarterback has no other responsibility or authority on field . However , he may , depending on the league or individual team , have various informal duties , such as participation in pre-game ceremonies , the coin toss , the trophy presentation , or other events outside the game . Often compared to captains of other team sports , the starting quarterback is usually the de facto team leader and a well - respected player on and off the field , even before the NFL implemented the team captain 's patch in 2007 .
Pro Football Hall of Fame
The Pro Football Hall of Fame uses only media representatives to select inductees . This , along with its policy of inducting only a maximum of seven players a year ( six in certain years past ) , with a current maximum of two `` senior '' candidates and five `` non-seniors , '' has been criticized by sports columnists , former players , and football fans . Such critics would like to see solutions such as expanding the number of selectors , rotating panel members on and off the selection committee , and allowing former players to participate in the voting . The small number of candidates elected each year has helped foster what some perceive as an inequality of representation at certain positions or in certain categories of player , with defensive players in general and defensive backs and outside linebackers in particular , special teams players , wide receivers , deserving players who primarily played on bad teams , and those from the `` seniors '' category , being slighted . This has included a 2009 New York Times article which criticized the Hall for not including punter Ray Guy on its ballot , also noting that the Hall did not have an inductee at the time representing the position . ( At least two inductees , Sammy Baugh and Yale Lary , punted in addition to playing other positions . ) Guy was eventually inducted as part of the 2014 class for the Hall of Fame . There has also been criticism that certain players get overlooked because their team underproduced during their careers .
Andre Johnson
Andre Lamont Johnson ( born July 11 , 1981 ) is a former American football wide receiver who played the majority of his career with the Houston Texans of the National Football League ( NFL ) . He played college football at Miami , and was drafted by the Texans third overall in the 2003 NFL Draft . He is eleventh all - time in NFL career receptions , and 10th all - time in NFL receiving yards . Johnson holds nearly every Texans receiving record . He was also a member of the Indianapolis Colts and Tennessee Titans .
National Football League team captains
Players who have been named a team captain typically have a `` C '' patch on their jerseys . There is a standard design used by all teams participating in the captaincy program . The patches are in team colors and are worn on the front left or right breast ( depending on other patches , etc. worn by the specific team ) . The number of stars filled in on the patch represents the number of consecutive years that player has been named captain by that team . If they 've been named captain for longer than four years , the `` C '' on the patch is gold . Some teams ( e.g. Pittsburgh and New England ) do not have this patch on their jerseys but still designate captains . In the case of the Green Bay Packers , they would use weekly captains during the regular season , but would switch to assigning captains whenever they qualify for the playoffs .
Oakland Raiders relocation to Las Vegas
On January 31 , 2017 , in the aftermath of Adelson and Goldman Sachs ' withdrawal from the Las Vegas deal , the San Diego Union - Tribune reported that Mayor Kevin Faulconer reached out to an NFL official to let them know they were eager to engage ; a city official also spoke to a Raiders official on the phone . The Union - Tribune noted that any possible Raiders relocation to San Diego or bringing a team to the city would have been aided by a proposal for a soccer - specific stadium and mixed development . NFL commissioner Roger Goodell reiterated , during his State of the NFL address , that San Diego would need a new stadium in order to be a relocation possibility . Another roadblock for a Raiders relocation to the city would have been the owners of the current Los Angeles teams . Stan Kroenke and Dean Spanos would block any team from sharing Southern California , especially if that team is the Raiders ( given the team 's continued popularity in the region ) . San Diego , as an option for the Raiders , was remote .
History of the Cleveland Browns
While the Browns came into 1954 as one of the top teams in the NFL , the future was far from certain . Graham , whose leadership and throwing skills were instrumental in the Browns ' championship runs , said he planned to retire after the season . Motley , the team 's best rusher and blocker , retired at the beginning of the season with a bad knee . Star defensive lineman Bill Willis also retired before the season . Still , Cleveland finished the regular season 9 -- 3 and met Detroit the day after Christmas in the championship game for a third consecutive time . This time Cleveland dominated on both sides of the ball , intercepting Bobby Layne six times while Graham threw three touchdowns and ran for three more . The Browns , who lost the last game of the regular season to the Lions only a week before , won their second NFL championship 56 -- 10 . `` I saw it , but still hardly can believe it '' , Lions coach Buddy Parker said after the game . `` It has me dazed .
