Super Bowl correction

The Super Bowl is not a football "team". It is a football "game". So I deleted that from the article.

A better picture

Could anyone provide a better picture for this page? The current one is all blurred (intentionally to hide player's faces), dark, blotchy, etc. and we could do better. -202.155.162.184 04:06, 10 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Football club is not the same as football team

Football club should not redirect to football team; they're different entities. The club is the registered company that operates the team. 92.3.187.131 (talk) 14:20, 28 January 2006(UTC)

I agree. Even if it remains one article, it should be renamed "Football club", and should distinguish the term "football team". A football club is an organisation, whether incorporated or unincorporated, run by a board of directors for a corporation or company or a committee for an unincorporated society or club (in the narrower legal sense), which has one or more teams playing football games, either in a league or cup competition, or friendlies, against teams from other clubs. An association football club may have more than one team, for example, a first team, a reserve team, a women's team, an under-21 team and a youth team (all 11-a-side), plus the possibility of 5-a-side teams that play indoor or 5-a-side football, or futsal. Each team under one club may have its own squad, managers, coaches and pitches. Rainjar (talk) 04:03, 22 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

....or across other sports called football by their fans, such as gridiron football, Australian rules football, Gaelic football, rugby league and rugby union. Their are many permutations of the arrangements among all those sports right round the world, and in the vast majority of cases, a football club does not equate to a football team.

Needs more content

This article has very limited information regarding football teams. This page has very little sources for reference and needs more. Article also needs more topics and subheadings regarding different topics such as positions and their importance to the team. It could also use a section informing its readers of the different responsibilities of the franchise and its employees including the players. Information regarding these aspects can be better assessed here: ^[1] — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aaron.somerville (talk • contribs) 19:22, 18 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
