The yanks can chuck out there all the stats they want it doesn't mean anything because those big guys are trained to play 20 seconds at a time and wouldn't last in a rugby match. All that muscle and size takes a lot to move and they'd be having an heart attack after 5 mins playing Rugby.

Stamina wise the NFL players wouldn't come close to rugby players. When Rugby players get tackled the play continues, they lay it off to a team mate get up and carry on. When they get tackled players just pile on elbowing and standing on others.

Those helmets become battering rams
Players get concussions in every game and theres always injury timeouts
The NFL is trying to make the game safer because ex-players are suing them for brain damage
I've seen very little rugby but to me playing a WR going across the middle in coverage with a LB or S running at you full speed and launching his helmet at your head is way tougher than rugby
