3. I think its marking yardage.
I don't remember seeing it before. Maybe its a SuperBowl thing. I would like the job measuring the "downs".

2. that's the line the team with the ball has to pass in order to get a first down
a first down means you moved the ball 10 yards.

4. Is it a light or is there actually something on the field?
I don't want anyone to trip or get hurt out there.
