Report

1995 saw large-scale change in the National Football League. Debutants Carolina Panthers and Jacksonville Jaguars played in the Hall of Fame Game in Canton, Ohio, to open the Preseason, with the Panthers winning the battle of expansion franchises 20-14. The two Los Angeles teams also embarked for new patstures: the Rams to St. Louis and the Raiders back to Oakland. Two American Bowls were played that year – Buffalo Bills defeating Dallas Cowboys 9-7 in Toronto, Canada, and Denver Broncos winning 24-10 in Tokyo, Japan against San Francisco 49ers.

Elsewhere the Houston Oilers, a year before they left for Tennessee, played two preseason home games outside Houston: versus Washington Redskins in Knoxville, Tennessee, and Dallas Cowboys in San Antonio, Texas, losing both. Miami Dolphins and Tampa Bay Buccaneers also played a game in Orlando, Florida, with Tampa Bay Buccaneers winning, while the New England Patriots lost a ‘home’ game in Stanford, California to the Oakland Raiders, and the New York Jets similarly lost a home game versus Philadelphia Eagles at Jackson, Mississippi. Preseason Division Champions were Indianapolis Colts (3-1, AFC East), Cleveland Browns (2-2, AFC Central), Kansas City Chiefs (3-1, AFC West), Philadelphia Eagles (4-0, NFC East), Detroit Lions (3-1, NFC Central), and Carolina Panthers (3-2, NFC West). Only the Kansas City Chiefs went on to win their Division durling the Regular Season.

National Football League Preseason Results 1986 [Reference: 1]

Report

The National Football League Preseason of 1986 featured the American Bowl ’86 in London, England, where the Chicago Bears defeated the Dallas Cowboys 17-6. The Preseason, as usual, opened with the Hall of Fame Game in Canton, Ohio, where the New England Patriots won a tight game 21-16 against the St. Louis Cardinals. After four more weeks of games, Preseason Division titles went to New England Patriots (4-1, AFC East), Cleveland Browns (4-0, AFC Central), San Diego Chargers (3-1, AFC West), New York Giants (3-1, NFC East), Chicago Bears (4-1, NFC Central), and Atlanta Falcons (2-2, NFC West). Four of these teams went on to win their Regular Season Division title, only the San Diego Chargers (who lost out to the Denver Broncos) and Atlanta Falcons who lost out to San Francisco 49ers, failed to translate Preseason form into Regular Season Championships.

Report

Weeks 1-3 23 April – 8 May 2021

Playing a 3-game schedule between themselves to start the 2021 Indoor Football League schedule in USA, Green Bay Blizzard (Wisconsin) and Massachusetts Pirates both got off to 2-1 Wins-Losses starts while Bismarck Bucks (North Dakota) started 1-1 and expansion franchise Louisville Xtreme got off to an 0-2 start. The Blizzard lost their opening game 36-41 at home to Bismarck, but then won 40-36 at home to Massachusetts before a much easier 49-29 victory over the Xtreme. The Pirates had big wins over both Louisville Xtreme (49-18 on opening day) and 36-18 versus Bismarck Bucks.

Week 4 15-16 May 2021

Bismarck Bucks moved to 2-1 with a win over Green Bay Blizzard, which dropped the Blizzard to 2-2. Meanwhile, most of the rest of the League played their opening games. Iowa Barnstormers defeated Sioux Falls Storm 56-36, early indication that the Storm’s long-standing record of Bowl wins and appearances may be threatened in 2021. Making their debut were Frisco Fighters, from Texas, who triumphed in their first ever game 36-33 at Spokane Shock of Washington State, one of the oldest of the Arena Indoor Football teams.

About

For the 2021 season the Indoor Football League added the Louisville Xtreme and Northern Arizona Wranglers. The Indoor Football League is a AAA American Football League played Reduced Numbers (8v8) Arena Indoor American Football primarily in the American Mid-West & West. Previously AA, it has since the demise of the AAA Arena Football League after the 2019 season, it has expanded its Geographic Reach, and has taken the AFL’s position as the AAA League in Indoor/Arena Football. This version of American Football is most popular in Mexico, hence names like Tucson Sugar Skulls. LEXFA (Liga Extrema de Futbol Arena) in Mexico is the Major League (and also one of four Mexican Majors)

About American Football

American Football, and its close cousin, Canadian Football are two variations of Gridiron Footbal, the dominant codes of the game in both countries. Both codes evolved side by side from Rugby fron the 1850s onwards, with Canadian Football currently employing 12-player squads as opposed to American Football which plays 11v11. Unlike in Rugby forward passes are allowed by the Quarterback (each position in Gridiron Football is highly specialised). Scoring is similar to Rugby except a Touchdown (Try) is worth 6 points, and a conversion kick one point. teams have the option of passing or running the conversion into the endzone (where one must score the touchdown) for two points. The main object of the sports are to get the ball into the other teams endzone (endzones are at either end of the pitch). Teams do not have unlimited attempts to do so, however, and if they do not make 10 yards in four downs (attempts) the ball is turned over (3 downs in Canadian Football). Teams have the option of kicking a Field Goal, worth 3 points, if they think they won’t make the 10 yards. In Canadian Football there is also a ‘Rouge’, whereby one point is scored if the ball is kicked through the other teams endzone. Another popular version of the game in Mexico and USA is Arena or Indoor Football, which is played on a 50 yard field with two 8 yard endzones, with teams having 5 downs in which to score, three of which must be passing plays. It is played on converted Ice Hockey Rinks. A Canadian Football field is 110 yards long with two 20 yard endzones and an American Football field is 100 yards long with two 10 yard endzones.

Report

A new 8-team fully professional American Football League in Europe – the European League of Football is planned to start in June 2021 with a 12-week 10-game schedule announced, playing by NFL rules as opposed to NCAA as everywhere else in Europe.

It will be the first fully professional league since the demise of NFL Europa in 2007, and has been met with much criticism by the German Football League – the current top league in Europe – as 6 of the franchises will be based in Germany, with two more in Spain (Barcelona Dragons) and Poland (three times Champions Wroclaw Panthers).

Following the demise of the NFLE/WLAF, the Central European Football League, featuring teams from Poland to Turkey and France to Hungary was a weekly Football League, but not fully pro, lasting until 2016.

The six German teams are Berlin Thunder, Frankfurt Galaxy, Cologne Centurions and Hamburg Sea Devils (all using the same names as their previous NFL Europe/World League of American Football team), Stuttgart Surge (using the name of the old Sacramento Surge team in the WLAF) and Leipzig Kings. Barcelona Dragons is also a resurrection of the previous NFLE/WLAF team name.
