There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?

A turnover is the loss of possesion without the use of a punt, a score, or four tries at a first down. This comes in the form of an interception, where the ball is thrown and a defensive player gains possesion of the football. Also this comes in the form of a fumble, where the offensive player in possesion of the football loses control of the football and the defense recovers the ball.

A turnover is when one team has the ball and the ball is given to the other team by the referee. There are a few reasons for this to happen, such as touching the ball with two hands (goalie is not included) and putting the ball underwater. Another way a turnover can happen is if you are too aggressive on offense.
