this would be a perfect for an olympic event, low risk injuries (parents would be willing to let their children participate leading to more fans), easy to understand and follow along, gives people from other countries a chance to play football, and very entertaining
@@rch5991 well yes, but we are talking about the international scale. Only America has such an emphasize in such big (and frankly, unhealthy if you look at the long run) athletes. Other countries with focus on soccer will value speed and skill
Us Americans are very proud of y'all Italians for loving our game, make it yours, we will help when you need help. Y'all got this, now add your take on football. Hell yeah! That Italian QB can play. If that Italian QB sees this, we have a XFL team in Vegas and I really love them and don't want to lose them, if you could play for the vipers and take us to to the playoffs or win a championship, you could probably save us.
@zeezooklives the NFL is working on games in countries other than the US more and more every year. In a couple decades it could become a international sport.
Im pretty sure that's their goal, they recognize that flag football is obviously way less physical but also a lot cheaper without the gear. The Olympics are coming to the USA in a few years and I think they want to pitch it during then
I'd rather not risk any of our guys with these nonsense games The NFL is good enough as it is minus Browns management but come September I wanna see everyone out there grinding for the Lombardi trophy.
It feels like American football's international interest rises with each passing year. I know there's still a long way to go before making it an international sport but I love how the NFL is trying to spread the game to other countries
Unfortunately this is the beginning of the end of American football. Once the world catches on to this style of flag it’s game over. Taking the physicality out of the game benefits the owners more than the players. That’s why the NFL will make the switch in the next 20 years.
1 - I hope they accept the NFL bid to make this an Olympic sport, 2 - NFL should have there own celebrity game on pro-bowl weekend and make it a flag football game
Fun fact: I played against Darrell Doucette at Nationals at Southern Miss University when he was at Xavier (Louisiana) in 2010. I was our pass rusher - quickest player on our team. He absolutely humiliated me that day. I played for a small community college in GA and had no business being on the field with him. Watching him humiliate some of the Italian players makes me feel much better!
I lost 2 times to this dude on last play of the game🦾 in tournaments. I always loved watching him and playing against him. He is lightning quick. I KNEW he would beat the pros and I KNEW he would win this game no questions dude is THE truth!
No way. In fairness though, I can see what that QB was talking about how it’s a very different sport. With those laterals and all that. But just imagine guys like Lamar and Tyreek playing against a bunch of Italian car salesmen.
I played alot of flag football throughout my years and can say those big boys with long arms can snag those passes. Also, they are good at positioning themselves in bound. As a defender, you can't do much but hope they drop the ball.
The U.S. decides to put their best foot forward and forms a team of: Barry sanders, dante hall, mike vick, Alvin kamara, Randy moss, tyreek hill, and Lamar Jackson
Flag football is honestly the ideal form of gridiron football for international competition, at least for now. The US (and Canada to some extent, and to an even lesser extent Australia and maybe the countries where Rugby is popular, but my point stands I think) has kind of an innate advantage internationally until the sport grows. We have an entire country of teens growing up playing youth, high school and college football, plus the NFL. So tackle football is just going to be a slaughter. But flag football kind of evens the playing field so that any big athletic guy from any country can stand a chance.
This “Italy” team just full of Americans who couldn’t make it to team USA, I imagine the rest of the teams are like this as well since nobody outside of America plays football.

That is a crazy size crowd for flag football. Wow. Impressed
Football making waves love to see it
Bruh that Italian side arm dot was clean
Not gonna lie this is the hardest flag football game I’ve ever seen and I would def watch this from home. USA 🇺🇸
This is it, this should be the pro bowl. Some Sort of tournament maybe by divisions or team captains
Love it. Worked with Duce in New Orleans a few years back. Congratulations!
Flag Football should be an Olympic sport. It would quickly become one of the most popular team sports at the Olympic games.
Italy's QB resembles Aaron Rodgers. This is cool to see✌️🏈
Kinda throws like Trevor Lawrence imo
@@DangitTaylor facts lol
I said the same 😂
Italy’s QB is American 😂. But he has a double passport, American and Italy. So he can play for italy
Aaron fraudgers
I'm hooked. This looks incredibly fun to play and watch
Oh yeah those CTE results are pourin in for sure. Flag football here we come
Wassup?
@@cte3109 😂😂😂😂
Flag with never replace real football smh
As long as MMA and boxing is still a thing, American football will never die. You face far more trauma in those than American football.
@@Twisty757Yes it will more people are playing flag than tackle at the youth level and at the college level. Flag is now a professional sport
I came to hate on the video.
I am now leaving satisfied. :)
Love this! Make this an Olympic sport!
Let’s go USA!
they may have lost but boy can italy play ball
You telling me NFL players would let an Italy team put up 24 at half??? Trippin
No way. In fairness though, I can see what that QB was talking about how it’s a very different sport. With those laterals and all that. But just imagine guys like Lamar and Tyreek playing against a bunch of Italian car salesmen.
Bro Lamar and Tyreek eating these dudes alive😂
I’m not saying they would thrive in the NFL, but some of these throws and catches are beautiful and athletic AF from these guys.
Kudos to Italy, way to compete and play.
You mean the Americans of Italian ancestry? Lol

Had no idea Italy wanted anything to do with American football
we are european champions too

American Football has been played at the semi pro level in Italy since the 80's or maybe earlier.

I’m very proud of the boys but I did not expect anything less
The Italy qb deserves a shot on a roster his accuracy was lethal
He's the best qb in Italy. by a mile
He js from New York
Dude is a menace, watched him live here in Italy, he’s the real deal
This is dope. Now more countries can pick up the basics of the game.
They are the nfl is expanding their youth flag football league internationally all the time
Here after the QB’s comments on NFL players playing in the Olympics
Italy apparently having a professional football league is crazy
clicked this ironically but actually enjoyed watching it. I enjoy the varied play design.
And this game is going to be an Olympic sport now! So excited.
GO, TEAM USA! THE FUTURE OF FOOTBALL IS HERE! Congratulations to them.
Never knew they had flag football
There is a movement to add it to the Olympics at the moment

Better than this past Super Bowl 💯
This the future of gridiron football right here. We want to see more athletes play

Dead sport then. But a nice intro to the sport.
I CANNOT BELEIEVE IT! AMERICA WON!!!!!! COMPLETE UPSET
Make it 7 on 7 and two hand touch instead of flag grabs and you’ve got something the world would love.
Bro I can’t believe Corey Webb is my football coach I’m so happy
God that was amazingly fun to watch!
why dont we use NFL players for this like how NBA players play in the olympics
No NFL player that is good wants to play flag football

Could you imagine if Jamar Chase, Justin Jefferson and George Pickens were playing on team USA with Lamar Jackson as QB. 😂
Following the rugby 7’s model but without the physical contact
Very impressed by the Italian teams effort n didn't know they had a pro league. Goin to check it now
Yeah the world needs football 🏈 in the olympics
This was a VERY fun game to watch, but there was a CLEAR speed difference favoring the US team
wow, that is really different, and its hard game. Got touchdown really fast, just like that.
Should be a pro bowl and Olympic sport.
Are we sure this isn't usa vs new jersey
I legit thought that was Liangelo Ball in the thumbnail 😂
How the hell are we not smoking Italy.
This is our sport.

USA's QB has a very interesting throwing motion. It's almost like a little kid who has to wind up to throw the ball.
