I had Broncos/Cowboys. Pretty much a useless toy that I couldn't figure out, but played the hell out of it.

He must have invented the game when he was pretty young. The first one I remember was 1965. Maybe he was inspired by the Beach Boys. You know - "Gotta keep those good vi- vibrations ahappenin' with her!" ;)
As for the passing attack: The set we had had a QB with an arm on a spring. You cocked that felt FB back and if you could hit any player it was ruled a catch. You stuck the ball under the players arm and then you turned the machine on.Twenty years of Cheers.

I always ran 'student body left/right/middle' by mushing everyone together with the ballcarrier in the middle. crappy game but I spent hours on it too.
RIP
