I've added some clarification to the role of the line judge and back judge, in regards to official timekeeping responsiblities in high school games; in 4-man crews, the line judge is the official timekeeper, while in a 5-man crew, the back judge has this responsibility. -- BucInExile 02:03, 17 August 2005 (UTC)
I am trying to determine who marks the point of change of possession for determining return yards.-- TonyTheTiger ( t/ c/ bio/ WP:CHICAGO/ WP:LOTD) 03:39, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
I am working on Total offense, Yards from scrimmage and All-purpose yards and need to know how yardage is credited if a team executes a successful onside kick where they are able to advance a fielded ball. Also, do all forms of return yards count toward All-purpose yards? Sources welcome.-- TonyTheTiger ( t/ c/ bio/ WP:CHICAGO/ WP:LOTD) 03:42, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
How is this different from any other kind of sports official its not close to unique to american football-- 69.146.158.35 ( talk) 02:19, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
How are the officials' uniform numbers selected? Could this be addressed in the article? The fairly complex system of the number assignation of players by their positions is well-documented, so why is this not so for the officials as well?-- 74.235.10.18 ( talk) 21:32, 10 October 2009 (UTC)
Should replay assistant and video operator be mentioned here? They are part of the officiating crew. Danthe4th ( talk) 16:03, 27 January 2010 (UTC)
You probably would've noticed the NFL have experimented with an eighth official, lining up behind the Back Judge. Should this little experiment be incorporated somehow into the article, and in what section? Bettia (talk) 15:13, 31 August 2010 (UTC)
Is an interception considered"good" if the receivers knees or knee is in contact with the ground? 72.189.244.74 ( talk) 20:23, 29 October 2011 (UTC)
