Question
I have been looking for a game called..."Quarterback Football"...I'm not sure, but I think it was made by Milton Bradley.   The game consists of an offense, and defence plays that you choose once you insert the plays....( elongated card s that show the different plays ....once both have selected a play, you push a square button and it lights up to give you the result...I would appreciate any info...you may have...

Answer
Hi David,
Thanks for your delightful question.  I am not familiar with a game by the name of Quarterback Football that plays as you describe, however there is a game called Foto-Electric Football by Cadaco that closely resembles the description of game play you provided.  The game cards with offense and defense plays are about 10 inches long and 8 inches wide.  There is a light bulb inside the game box that is turned on to determine the outcome of each play by shining through each of the cards (offense & defense) that are put together into a slot.  Let me know if this makes sense.  If not, please describe the size of the game box, the defense and offense cards and related game information with more detail so that I can pursue a better answer to your question.
Best regards,
Don
