From kickoff to trophy

The Football on a tee opens the page: 74 squares on the easy grid in brown, orange and green, with three white laces left as paper. The Goalpost has a ball flying between its uprights. The Jersey is the longest easy sheet at 108 squares and needs only blue and yellow.

Made-up colors

The Helmet is red with a yellow stripe and the Jersey is blue with a yellow 7. Open More options, choose Detailed 24 by 24 and the Jersey grows to 388 squares, the Whistle turns gray inside a black outline and the Trophy gains an orange star.

Football here means the American game: the ball is the pointed one with laces.
The Pennant carries no letters; the detailed one adds a yellow star and blue edges.
