ATARI FOOTBALL

2 different control panel graphics designs were made. The original releases had graphics around the trak-ball (picture #1), and the later releases didn’t (picture #2).

BUG: In some two-player models built in late 1978 and early 1979, there was a bug that would allow the QB to throw a pass after crossing the line of scrimmage, then going back behind it. When the QB crossed scrimmage, all the defending X players would leave their receivers open as they pursued the run, making long completions easy.
