How many yards are their behind an football team yard line?

Answer:
Sounds like you are talking about the endzone measurement. The football field is 100 yards and then the endzones are an extra ten yards each. So when a team is starting a drive on the zero yard line there is still ten yards behind them to use to their advantage.
