The difference is that in the NFL, you have athletes that are far superior to what you will find in any Rugby league, and the speed and force of collisions are far greater. Part of that goes into what Felix referenced earlier - the huge money that draws all the best athletes. So yes, if WE were to play football or rugby, our rugby match would be rougher. However, an NFL game is not soft, and I would say more violent than a rugby game.

And just to be contrary, how can a soccer fan call the NFL soft?
