1: An interception is when one team throws the ball and the opposing team catches it which results in a turnover.

2: A fumble is when one team drops the ball and both teams have the chance to pick it up. But If the opposing team picks it up, then it is a turnover.

3: The line of scrimmage is an imaginary line where the last down ends. It is also where the ball is placed at the beginning of the down.

4: A quarterback is the player on the team who throws the ball to one of the receivers in the beginning of the game.

5: The wide receiver is the player who catches the ball thrown by the quarterback and tries to run and get a touchdown if the pass was successful.
