CAN YOU GET THE CALL CORRECT? Canadian Football (CFL) Rules Riddles 

I think a “single” is actually called a “rouge”

As a Canadian this was gold to watch lol got 4/6 and some of them even had me hella confused. Great video.

American football basically went through way more of an evolution from rugby and Canadian football stayed more true to its rugby roots

As an American, I think Canadian football should be shown more often here. So entertaining

I just picked whichever rule sounds the most ridiculous and I got them all right. What the hell is this

4 out of 5 right and I'm from Finland and familiar with both American and Canadian football. In my eyes there are both not insane sports. Just sports with slighty different rules. I'm sure we have that sport in our contry that we follow. Then we watch something that is different and call it crazy, instead of seeing it as different and trying to understand the sead sport. Same thinking can be aplied to food. If you go to foreign country and eat a food that you have never seen. Are you going by look if it and say "I'm not eating that because it looks so foreign", or try it because it's different? Had a friend go over America to watch NFL playoff game live (forgot what the game was). He coud along with few friends coud not understand the gameplay at all. It was foreign to them, these people with Ice Hockey association football (soccer) and Finish Baseball (Pesäpallo) understanding did not understand Griddon. Because it was foreign to them and did not know the rules... Myself I have allways tried to know the rules and history of the game. Both American and Canadian football codes came from Rugby Union. Canadian one was there 1st, but American one evolved more while Canadian one has more Rugby rules on them. Rules that Americans changed more. That's why we have two different Griddon codes... Football... Association football, Rugby Union, Rugby League, American Football, Canadian Football, Aussie Rules Football, Gaelic Football. All different sports, take one fan from one sport and drop it to a another one. What is going to happen? The fan will not understand it and prefer there sport. Calling the other sport insane... When in the end, it is lack of understanding... So people, understand the sport before judging it. Nothing in the end is insane. It is just lack of knowledge.

As a CFL fan, this was too easy. Of course PI applies on all forward passes, and the punter recovering the ball is the same as the onside guy recovering. Pretty easy, I thought you'd pluck out some arcane, almost never seen rules. Great league!

As a Canadian who doesn't watch the CFL, i found this both educational and hilarious. Thank you!

The nuanced kicking game is one of the dozens of reasons I prefer the CFL's game over the United States's game.

Got'em all. Watching CFL football for the last 20 or so years paid off.

I just watch the CFL to fuel my football addiction (love the Argos btw)

Also please do a whole video on the differences

I am actually a NFL and CFL football fan I enjoy both leagues

I got them all right. For CFL fans, these are pretty easy tbh, but I get you're making a video for a subscriber base that probably doesn't know too much about the CFL.

Ayyye CFL videos, We need more of these, This is the first year i've been getting into football and I'd love to see more people talk about the CFL, it's really cool

I am from Toronto and I remember watching that game that you showed at the end and at that moment I asked my dad who is a long time CFL fan "Wait they can do that"

Perfect 😎😎 It sometimes pays to be one of the few Americans who watches CFL football.

So...I live on the US border with Mexico, had 0 idea about Canadian football, and somehow got 3 right. Now...I’m really interested in Canadian football. Oh no...am I becoming a hoser?

5/6 As an Australian this game seems very initiative, didn't know about the neutral zone on kicks. The CFL seems to make a lot more sense then NFL.

finally!! fave series of yours

I need to watch the CFL now.

As someone who plays football in Canada, I got 4 and this was amazing. Loved the video

Having played the Canadian game, I did get all correct, but there are some funny plays that are so rarely called lol. Good video!

The CFL is great. I just wish that we had tsn in the US. Toronto against Edmonton is on Espn on Friday.

CFL sounds way more interesting than NFL 😂😂 that shit is nuts. A very strange mix of NFL and Rugby

As a Canadian CFL fan I got all of these right but that's not surprising I guess. Also Johnny Football played for the Montreal Alouettes you mentioned in the last riddle but was released by order of the league for reasons that were never disclosed. Thank you for the great video!

CFL actually looks really cool

If the 1 point (single) kick rule was true in the NFL, Blair Walsh may still have a job...

#2 is also a rugby thing. The Onside rules are pretty much the same, and many rugby teams design first phase plays around it.

I got all those. I like Canadian football more than I do American football.

Got four of them right. I've seen the footage from the last one before. Good 'ol Moose Rugby

I’m glad I stumbled on your channel. Your vids are very entertaining. For us rugby heads down here in the Southern Hemisphere, the cfl is like that intermediary between rugby and afl. I can understand cfl, I don’t need to have a drink, but that always helps.

I got a lot of these right because I live in England and grew up playing Rugby Union. Canadian football seems to be halfway between Rugby Union and American Football

Good video...big fan of my home country's version of professional football....so this was fun! And I love it when players and coaches are so studious of the rules, especially these more obscure ones, that they utilize their knowledge to the advantage of their respective teams! It does make the game more interesting. I got most of the quiz correct but was unsure on a couple of points. Nice digging!

True story, the CFL rules are the older form rules of football. That’s why they maintain most of the aspects of rugby.

Watched some CFL games when I was in Maryland in the 90's and Baltimore (briefly) had a team. Great variant of football IMO.

I’m a huge cfl fan and a fan of the Ottawa red blacks and I got all of these right

This video was great, as a Canadian who loves the CFL, was funny as hell. Can you do some more CFL videos in the future please

LOL...I only got one wrong (pass interference) and I'm 110 percent American. But I love the CFL and know the rules pretty well.

My brain's hurting and I'm not even drunk... this was one of the best FPV vids of all time.

Very entertaining presentation of some mind-boggling rules ...

As a Canadian I knew all of those, and am kind of shocked the NFL doesn't have onside kicks for punts too (or DPI behind the line for that matter)... I know they're missing the Rouge, but wow, this is further evidence for why the CFL game is more entertaining to watch than the NFL game! Edit - As you were describing the last play, I was remembering that exact game! Kick-outs are quite possibly the most exciting play in pro football!

As a HUGE CFL fan I appreciated this video. 👍

That kicking play was glorious to watch I remember that, returning kicks is such an important aspect of the Canadian game there are several kick/punt returns TD's every year in the CFL, but in the NFL kick returning is dying its kind of sad Devin Hester and Cordarelle Patterson are some of my favorite players

Great video! I live in Saskatchewan Canada, henceforth a big CFL fan and of course a Saskatchewan roughrider fan, this missed field goal being kicked back and forth situation also happened in the 1972 Western final playoff game between Winnipeg and Saskatchewan roughriders on the final play of the game-sending Saskatchewan to the Grey Cup game, ( missed field goal - kicked out of the end zone, picked up by the holder who was Ron Lanchaster the QB - went to kick it back in but was immediately tackled ) game over right? Wrong! In the CFL you have to give 5 yards to the receiver on any kick , even a chaotic back and forth missed field goal episode- thus Winnipeg is penalized for not giving the 5 yards, Saskatchewan gets another crack at the field goal and wins the game! I love the CFL!

"iT's cOmInG hOmE"

Omg a CFL VID!!!!

I personally like cfl better then NFL. But that could just be I go to a lot of cfl games and watch them on t.v .

Yay, part 3 is here! Can’t wait for part 4! 5/6

I am a huge CFL fan and got all of these right with ease but great vid

5/6 didn't know pass interference was applied everywhere. Other than that piece of cake

that was a joy to experience. bless your soul kfivepoints bryant

I'm a United Statesian who has watched Canadian Football occasionally for close to 50 years. It still freaks my eyes out every time I see the 55 yard line. It goes against our socialization. That and the rules differences are what make watching the CFL so fun.

My brain hurts from that.

I remember watching that last one and as soon as you said it was caught, I knew which match it was

Beautiful! Americans get introduced to exiting Football. Maybe you also should explain time management inside the last three minutes of a game. But that might be too much to understand at once!

As a Canadian, And CFL fan. These were ez pz!

I got them all right but I'm Canadian and a hardcore CFL fan :) GREAT VIDEO! Here's one more you might not know: After a touchdown, when the scoring team attempts a convert (either kicking for 1 or throwing for 2), if the ball is intercepted, the play is NOT DEAD. The intercepting team can run the ball back! This happened at least once in my memory - a two-point convert was intercepted and run back to the opposing endzone. Result? The intercepting team got TWO POINTS (and won the game by one point)

Awesome vid, man. Also could have added that about 20 years ago, the CFL had two teams named the Roughriders (the Ottawa team was spelled Rough Riders) in what was just an 8-team league. What a crazy country, eh? Go Argos!

I got every one right. I love the CFL.

Is being Canadian considered a performance enhancing drug for this quiz? Got em all right, no problem. The CFL is a shitshow but that's what makes it great, it feels like every rule is designed to maximize chaos. Its the Mario Party of professional sports.

Football as a nation of hockey lovers enjoy it - Fast, flowing, and a little crazy around the edges!

Okay so, I’m an Australian, I play rugby, I got all of them right

Qualified Canadian here, I even play Canadian highschool football and won my provinces provincial championship last year. Q1: no. (Correct) Q2: it is a td but I’ve never seen or heard of a play like that off of a kickoff (correct for first part) Q3: yes (correct) Q4: B (correct) Q5: A (Correct) My bantam team had a play like this we used on long second downs where we would punt but the punter would barely be behind the line of scrimmage so we would surprise our opponents and have like 3 onside players (behind the punter) so they could play the ball. We scored a TD with it once (against the second worst team in our league), but our punter also once nailed our centre in the head, which was a penalty because he wasn’t onside and touched the ball before the opposing team. Q6: A (I think this happened in the CFL before where the two teams punted at each other a bunch I remember seeing it on a video somewhere) (Correct) Another weird CFL rule that you didn’t include is tandem buck, which is where you get a penalty if you push one of your teammates carrying the ball and I only know it because I got called for it last year in our first game and it’s stupid and I hate it

They must kick a lot balls in in Canada

6/6 really easy being a CFL fan. Also Manzel hasn't even started a game, because he can't grip the Canadian Football (It's too big for him).

I got them all, but that's because I am Canadian and watch every game. 4:25 If the receiving team doesn't pick up the ball, the kicker can get there first and recover it, as can any player of that team that was onside (behind the kicker when ball was kicked).

#5 - I watched that one on another RU-vid video about crazy finish plays. I got 3 of them right! The CFL is gaining some momentum in Texas. I've been hearing people talk about it and even saw a game playing in a pizza restaurant featuring the Hamilton Tiger-cats, Johnny Manziel's team.

1. No 2a. Onside punt 2b. Yes 3. Yes. Since flankers and slotbacks take a running start at the snap, they're usually 10 yards downfield in under a second. Because of this, bump'n'rub is impossible because the already-at-top-speed slotback or flanker would leave them in their dust. As a result, the defence doesn't really benefit from having a zone for legal contact so to reduce injury, the CFL makes contact like that illegal at all times. Take heart though, pitch-out runs are quite rare because you only have three downs to make ten yards, not four. 4. No yards penalty of ten yards. There is no fair catch in the CFL so the kicking team MUST stay 5yds or more away from the ball until it's touched by the opposing side or they'll be penalised. 5. Touchdown, kicking team. The punter and anyone beside or behind him when he kicks is considered onside and may recover the ball without the opposition touching it. This is similar to question #2. This is an onside punt. 6. HAHAHAHAHA!! I saw the game you're referring to. It was Alouettes at Argonauts in 2010. The game was tied 30-30 and Montreal missed the FG to win with no time left. The Torontp kicker at the time, Noel Prefontaine stopped it at the back of the end zone and punted it right back to Als kicker, Damon Duval. Duval put it back deep in the end zone and Noel's second return kick attempt was blocked. The Als recovered it in the end zone and so beat the Argos by a TD.

Do a episode of states that produce athletes in every sports and witch one has the most to least

As cfl fan this was so easy and love the video

Given the fact that any player behind the kicker is onside in CFL, a box kick (technique from rugby) would be a very useful and legitimate tactic. I felt quite pleased, I only got one of these wrong. The kicking rules in CFL are very similar to rugby.

Good job on researching the rules of the CFL. Being a Canadian, I got them all correct. An alouette is a lark in English, just so you know.

😂 😂😂😂 I actually did pretty good (3 questions answered correctly), I’m pretty familiar with the CFL rules so this was not too bad

As a canadian I'm proud to have gone 6/6

Awesome. In the CGI you made demonstrating all players have brown colored skin, sept the quarter back 🤣🤣🤣👍👍👍

Wow this is great, CFL seems to have retained a lot of the rugby rules, field is same size as rugby pitch, offside rulings for kicker and field kicks etc. Much easier for rugby peeps to understand!

It helps that I've been a fan for a long time. Go Bombers!!!

It's the Grey Cup today! If any American wants to see what Canadian football looks like in a live game. It's not that complicated and it's the championship game.

Bring back the American CFL teams..Baltimore, Memphis, Las Vegas, Shreveport, Sacramento, San Antonio. Maybe CFL will expand again to pick up the teams from the two new US spring leagues after they fold.

You said I would get none of them right Well, about that... I got 4.5/6 correct

got em all, this was great though!

All but one correct... Also it's not a single it's a rouge

Great job, I have no idea how I got 5 right, I may be Canadian, but I rarely watch the CFL.

I got 2 and a half points, just by choosing the option that sounded more like a peyote hallucination.

It’s actually called a rouge when you miss a field goal. It is pretty much a consolation prize for playing.

CFL is an awesome league

My fav play that Winnipeg pulled off a few times over 10 years ago. They would go for a long FG and purposely short it to one side of the field. So while everyone is paying attention to the kicker cause he's onside and can recover the ball. The other team failed to notice that they also put another player onside, so he'd come in and bat the ball out of bounds inside the 10 yard line. It was pretty creative and haven't seen it done since. Just love the quick kicks when players are on side.

Cool. I got one right.

I got 4/6 correct and I don't even watch the CFL LOL ! That was fun. :)

Origins of Canadian Football: A drunk Canadian moose, who happened to be a fan of Rugby, and American Football, was watching Arena Football, one night... The drunk moose thought to himself, "why doesn't Canadia maked it's own form of fooseball, eh?!" *insert montage of drunk moose pounding down five cases of Molsons while writing down the rules to the CFL* After this, Dudley Do-Right signed the bill into law, and he freed Quebec... Umm... What was I talking about?

Jaja super hilarious Got the second right eh!

I always think the outro music is gonna be different every time I watch one of your videos, but I have yet to learn lol

Kinda like Rugby vs Rugby League - two sports that look similar on the surface but in fact have significant differences. I got three of these right (including the stumper), but only because of my Rugby / Rugby League background. Seems there is a lot more Rugby in CFL than I realised.

Definitely matches the name "Football" a whole lot more 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽💯🔥

C: we both don’t know we take another shot C: we took too many shots C: we die of alcohol poisoning How are these wrong all of them are the perfect answer for anything especially the last one when your wife asks you to go shopping for cloths

I actually like the cfl over the nfl. Because there are less of those really dumb exceptions that could completely turn the tides on a game just from one obscure rule. Edit: Also CATCHING the ball isn't a bunch of stupid exceptions

Nailed em all!

Benefits of being Canadian is I knew most of these even though I don't really follow football
