    Call them both football, even though one is obviously hand egg.

        There are actually two. Maybe three, if you separate FGs and extra points.

          4: Kickoff, field goal, extra point, and punt.

          Though kickoff is the only one where an entire legal play can occur without hands touching the ball, since the others require a deep snap from the center.
