Can I Just Say...

As a Brit that doesn't know much about American Football - granted - which is on where I'm working...

...can I just say the phase 'Moving the chains' sounds.....

Silly ?

Sorry to upset....

I does sound kind of silly, although they are physically moving the markers that are 10 yards apart and attached by a chain. "Moving the markers" may be better, or simply saying a "A new set of downs" as we know the markers get moved when that happens.

@Bowenw Thanks for that. Yes, I understood about the marker and the chain attached to it, but still sounds silly....🤣
