Only Americans and their once colonised or suck ass countries for other reasons watch their American sports. So pretty much just America, Japan and Taiwan.

Same reason why India likes to play cricket more than baseball.

So bottom line. No one else in the world cares. Let them enjoy their own sport. They even call their hand egg sport, football when its actually played by holding it in your arms most of the time.

When was Britain colonized by America?

You realize that there's talk of Britain getting an NFL franchise by 2025, right?

Oh, and American football is actually pretty popular all over Europe, with semi-pro teams all over. A big news story a couple years ago was someone from Germany (Moritz Bohringer) being drafted in the NFL. Yeah, a waste of a pick, but the idea that "nobody cares about American sports" is asinine.

Besides - what about hockey? Played worldwide, and America dominates.
