If football is replaced as the most popular sport in America (and that's a big if), I think it'll be soccer.
I don't think it's a very big if.
With all the lawsuits and head injuries coming out couples with the rule changes that are pissing fans off, I think it's inevitable that football will eventually go the way of boxing.
either that or it will be very different as we see it today. Like flag, 7 on 7, or even going back without headgear.

I don't think that it would be very different.
I think that we'll see some rules and equipment changes that make it less dangerous over the next few years.
A great first step would be to mandate wrapping up in tackles.
