What Are the Qualities of a Football Team Defender?

Who is a defender in a football team? Are there various kinds of defenders? Are there certain qualities that a defender must possess? Read on and you will find out.

A defender is a player that helps to protect the goal area of a football team. He or she does most of the work that the goalkeeper would have done if he or she were not there. A defender takes care of the opponent ever before he or she gets to the goal area. A defender makes sure that the opponent does not find a chance to shoot the ball or attempt to score a goal.

There are various kinds of defenders. Some defenders are called left full backs because they take care of the left flank of the team's area. Some of them are called right full backs because they are in charge of the right side of the team's area. There are also some defenders that are called central defenders and sweepers.

Now, look at the qualities:

1. Stamina: A good defender should be very strong on the ball. He or she should not let go easily; he or she should have enough strength to mark the opponent especially when the opponent is heading towards the goal area. A good defender should be determined to resist the opponent at any time during a football match. A good defender should be resilient. This is why a defender should be 100% fit before a match.

2. Speed: He should be swift. This is one quality that makes a very good defender. He should not allow the opponent to outrun him or her. A good defender should be able to go front and come back with relative ease especially at this time of modern football when a team defends en masse and attacks same.

Football Vs Soccer - How They Are Related, and How They Are Not

Two of the most beloved sports Football and Soccer have much in common. Lately, many are wondering why there is such an international pull for soccer while football remains an American sport. This articles intent is to bring out some of the similarities and differences between soccer and football based on: history, team size, and fan size.

History: Football vs. Soccer

Football is actually a relative from soccer. Though the date is unsure of when the sport was first known to be played, there were many professional teams starting to spring up in the late 1800s. It was not that much different from its closer cousin rugby, but was showing some far different plays from soccer already.

Here is an interesting fact. Soccer or "football" as is as known in most European and South American Countries is actually the founder of both rugby and football. The major disconnections occurred when the rules for soccer changed to a "no hands" rule. At this point rugby was born. Later as rugby split into two different kinds of play: traditional rugby which allows drop kick goals and more footwork, and American football which has kickoffs and field goals (reminiscent of its soccer days) tackling and hand offs (similar to rugby) and forward passing, options, and other additions.

Soccer on the other hand has a long history, according to the Munich Ethnological Museum there is a Chinese text dated around 50 B.C. talking about "soccer" games in china. Though it is unsure how similar these games were to what we know as soccer today.

Team Size: Football vs. Soccer

There is a tremendous size difference between football and soccer. In football you not only have players that make up a team, but you have specific teams within your team. There are three major teams that consist of a football team: The offense, the defense, and special teams. Each one has a specific objective. The offense with a quarterback, receivers, and guards' objective are to score touchdowns, while the defensive team's job is to stop the opposing team from scoring by tackling the quarterback, runners, or blocking passes. Special teams deal with punts, field goals, and kickoffs. All in all there are anywhere from 30 - 60 players that combine to make a football team.

Soccer is a continuous sport. Meaning unlike football where you have set plays and an offensive and defensive team, in soccer the ball is always going. That being the case there are still offensive and defensive parts to the play of soccer. One can tell whether a team is on the offensive or defensive by where the ball is on the field. If the ball is on your side of the field then you are on defensive, if it is on your opponent's side then you are on the offensive.

Fan Size: Football vs. Soccer

Determining which sport has a greater or more loyal fan base is difficult. Here in the United States American football by far has the larger fan base. However, outside of the United States (and perhaps Canada) you do not hear much about football, only soccer. Entire cities have been known to shut down for the world cup, and yet the most watched event was last year's super bowl. One thing is a fact. Both soccer and football have loyal fans that are not going anywhere.

Conclusion

Soccer or Football? Well when it comes right down to it, you are choosing between two very popular sports that will continue to gain momentum in the years to come.

Washington Redskins - The Five Greatest NFL Teams in the History of Football

While a lot of people may contest and debate the five greatest NFL teams in the history of football as listed here, everyone will agree that these were awesome teams that deserve the honor and accolade one way or another.

1985 Chicago Bears

The 1985 Chicago Bears was a phenomenal team composed of a mismatched group with raw and exciting energy and interesting personalities. They were great and they knew it, recording their championship video, "The Super Bowl Shuffle" even before playoffs started. Led by the Mohawk-wearing quarterback Jim "Punky QB" McMahon and an impenetrable running and defense line, chief of them William "The Refrigerator" Perry, Super Bowl MVP defensive end Richard Dent, and NFL Defensive Player of the Year Mike Singletary, the Bears finished the season with a 15-1 record and scored a total of 456 to 198 points. During the playoffs they won 21-0 against the giants and 24-0 against the rams for the NFC title. They won the Super Bowl, scoring 46-10 over the Patriots.

1972 Miami Dolphins

The 1972 Miami Dolphins is the only NFL team that ever had a "perfect season," with a season record of 17-0. This is also the reason why they are considered as the greatest NFL team of all time, particularly by the documentary America's Game: The Super Bowl Champions, produced by the NFL Network. Their undefeated team was led by coach Don Shula and football greats such as Earl Morrall, Bob Griese, and Larry Csonka. They won all three playoff games and finally won the Super Bowl VII against the Redskins. Some argue however that the '72 Dolphins had the advantage of playing one of the easiest schedules in the history of modern NFL, and this when equally matched with the '85 Bears, they were no contender.

1962 Green Bay Packers

A dream team consisting of a list of football hall of famers including Paul Hornung, Max McGee, Jim Taylor, Boyd Dowler, and Vince Lombardi, the 1962 Green Bay Packers set a 13-1 record earning them a first place at the Western Conference. In the NFL Championship Game, they won 16-7 against the New York Giants, marking the Packers' 8th NFL Championship.

1991 Washington Redskins

The 1991 Washington Redskins topped the NFL in two important stats: the yards gained per pass and yards allowed per pass, with star player Mark Rypien averaging a whopping 8.5 yards per attempt, gaining a total of 1,340 yards on 70 receptions. The additional contributions of Redskins' Ricky Ervins and Earnest Byner with a combined 1,708 yards make their stats legendary. Even with a tough schedule, they were able to outscore their opponents 485-224.

1999 St. Louis Rams

One of the most exciting personalities in the 1999 season was then barely-known night-shift grocery-clerk and St. Louis Rams' star quarterback, Kurt Warner who led the Rams to a record of 13-3 in the regular-season. He was both NFL MVP and Super Bowl MVP. The Rams defeated the Tennessee Titans in the Super Bowl XXXIV with a score of 23-16, and claimed their 1st NFL World Championship since 1951.

Golden Gopher Goofs--Two that Got Away

I wasn't around during the 1930s and too young to appreciate football in the '40s, but at one time, the University of Minnesota was a football factory producing some of the nation's best college football teams. The school had long been noted for its football program before the thirties. The joke about Bronko Nagurski was that Doc Williamson, the coach, had travelled about the state looking for football players for his team. When he found a likely candidate working in the field with plow in hand, he'd ask directions for a nearby town. If the candidate just pointed, he'd thank him and drive on. But if he used the plow to point, Williamson would sign him up on the spot. Nagurski pointed with the plow.

Though Williamson produced good teams, it wasn't until Bernie Bierman took over in 1932 that Minnesota became a household word in college football. According to his biography with the College football Hall of Fame, Bierman was a native Minnesotan who graduated from the U of M in 1915. He coached high school football for a year, served in the Marine Corps for two years, then went to Montana State University where he compiled a so-so record. After marrying in 1921 he became a bonds salesman, but his wife talked him into getting back into coaching because she didn't like staying home alone while he was on the road.

After assisting at Tulane, Bierman became head coach at Mississippi A & M (now Mississippi State) in 1925 and had an 8-8-1 record there in two seasons. At Tulane from 1927 through 1931, Bierman won 36 games, lost 10, and tied 3. His 1931 team won all 11 of its games, then lost 21-12 to Southern California in the Rose Bowl. He took over as coach at the University of Minnesota in 1932.

Bierman had 6 undefeated teams in ten years at Minnesota and his 1934, 1936, 1940 and 1941 teams won National Championships. Perennial champions Michigan and Ohio State went winless against them, including Michigan teams that included the legendary Tom Harmon. The attack on Pearl Harbor changed many things in America. One of the effects was to end Minnesota's dominance in football. Bierman returned as coach in 1945, and the 1949 came close to winning the Big Ten Championship, but he resigned after the 1950 season, winning only one game.

The coaching position was open early in 1951. One of the applicants was Bud Wilkinson, who was born in Minneapolis and had played for the University on the 1936 championship team. Another applicant was Wes Fesler, a coach at Ohio State University. The selection committee chose Fesler. Bud Wilkinson moved on to the University of Oklahoma and became the architect of the Sooner Dynasty that has produced fine teams to this day. Fesler retired in 1953, best known at the U of M as the man who coached Paul Giel.

Hindsight is 20/20, but this ardent Gopher fan wonders if things could have turned out differently if Minnesota had hired Wilkinson.

Another might-have-been for the Gophers occurred in 1954 when John Wooden applied for the job as head coach of the Minnesota Basketball team. Wooden at the time was an unknown, but I wonder if he could have worked his magic at Williams Arena. Ah well....
