I hope no one minds me using this forum to quiz a few people from the US about (American) Football. Much as I love watching it (the Giants won me £1500 in 2012) I cant help but feel its the sport where players have such set and individual roles that glory gets hugely focused on one or two players (QB's, RB's and WR's). Does it suck to play as a lineman, getting smashed all the time with little to show on the highlight reel? I know some positions in rugby are less glamorous, but even props get to run and pass and score the odd try.
