Do you remember reading a Shakespearean sonnet at some point in high school and learning from your teacher that it was "iambic pentameter"? That means the syllables were alternating between unstressed and stressed, like, "a YUMmy CHOC-late FOUN-tain". The exciting part is that there are many more meters and rhythms than iambic pentameter, and many of them reveal themselves within the names of our favorite NFL teams. It's important to note that to qualify, it has to complete each foot of its meter, (12 34 56, not just 12 34 5). Let's take a look!!!!!!

AFC

PITTSburgh STEELers - Trochaic Duometer

CINcinNATi BENGals - Trochaic Trimeter

BALti-more RAvens - nothing

CLEVEland BROWNS - nothing

HOUSton TEXans - Trochaic Duometer

IND-i-an-A-po-lis COLTS - Nothing technically, but Indianapolis itself is dactylic duometer

TENnesSEE TItans - nothing

JACKson-ville JAGuars - nothing

las VEGas RAIders - almost iambic tetrameter (I'm assuming the las's and los's are soft, since no one says LASVEG-as Raiders)

DENver BRONcos - Trochaic Duometer

KANsas CIty CHIEFS - nothing

los ANG-e-les CHARgers - nothing

NEW eng-land PAT-ri-ots - Dactylic Duometer (some also say new ENGland PAT-ri-ots, which is nothing)

BUF-fa-lo BILLS - nothing

NEW YORK JETS - Spondaic Meter

MI-a-mi DOLphins - nothing

NFC

GREEN bay PACKers - Trochaic Duometer

deTROIT LIons - nothing, but it's funky

MINneSOta VIkings - Trochaic Trimeter

chiCAgo BEARS - Iambic Duometer

atLANta FALcons - oo, close to Iambic Trimeter but nothing

new ORleans SAINTS - Iambic Duometer

CARoLINa PANthers - Trochaic Trimeter

TAMpa BAY BUCcaNEERS - nothing, but feels like something

los ANG-e-les RAMS - nothing

SAN franCISco FORty NINErs - YOOOOOO trochaic quadrameter

seATTle SEAhawks - nothing

ARiZOna CAR-di-nals - nothing

NEW york GIants - Trochaic Duometer (and yes, I do think people say New York differently between the New York Giants and Jets, they kinda bury the York when saying Giants, trust me bro)

PHILaDEL-phi-a EAGles - nothing

DALlas COWboys - Trochaic Duometer

WASH-ing-ton comMANDers - nothing

And that's that. Unused in the NFL naming scheme is anapestic meter, which would look like, wash-ing-TON com-mand-ERS.
