This chart looks complex at first brush but spend a minute with it.

This chart illustrates that the average time of play in an American Football game is just 10 minutes and 43 seconds of a 3 hour ordeal.

There's six times as much footage of players standing around than actually playing.

Another great perspective from the WSJ.
