Pro Football (1968 Edition w/1989 Complete Season)

This is the 1968 edition of the boxed game with the 1989 complete season player cards.

One of the several statistically-based sports simulations produced by the Strat-O-Matic Game Company. The game consists of player cards and team defensive cards that accurately reproduce play outcomes and player, team, and league statistics of the National Football League for the season on which the cards are based. Play progresses with the gamer on offense calling his play (run or pass, where the play is directed, the ball carrier or primary receiver, etc.) and the gamer on defense setting a defensive configuration (blitzes, double coverage of receivers, stacking the line, etc.). In the cards and dice version, three dice are then rolled, with one die determining whether the play result comes from the offensive or defensive cards and the other two determining the result from the specified card. Play takes place on a game board that resembles a football field, and the gamers keep track of the ball position, the down, and the time remaining in the quarter being played. Penalties and injuries are part of the game. Gamers play from the perspective of a head coach and/or general manager.
