Storyline:
You're the quarterback of the ATARI offensive team, and you're really feeling
the pressure. Down by less than a touchdown in the closing seconds of the
game, you have to maneuver that ball into the end zone somehow for the winning
score. How will you do it?
You could run with the ball and try to evade that wide-ranging middle
linebacker. Be careful, though. He's a littel bit faster than you and will
catch you over the distance.
Fortunately, you've done your homework by practicing your passing in the
one-player game against the computer. But this is head-to-head competition
against a real person, and people aren't always as predictable.
It's your ball. Hurry! Time's running out. Can you call the right play and
get that touchdown?
