When a football team is on offense, they have four types of plays that they can perform. 1. They can run the football to gain yards. 2. They can throw a forward or backward (called a lateral) pass to gain yards. 3. They can kick a field goal to try to get 3 points. 4. They can punt the football to the opposing team with the hopes of putting the opposing team in "bad" field position.
