Grab the football, put your helmet on and buckle in for the ride. Quarterback is a game for the football enthusiast who wants to simulate the experience of being a quarterback. It works as follows:
1. Alexa gives you the play call (either passing, running or run-pass-option), the ball snaps and you get your first read on the action. 2. Either pass (say "pass the ball") or run the ball (say "run it") or ask for another read (say "read options" or "read"). You can get four additional reads but the probability of being sacked increases per read. 3. Alexa tells you the result of the play, the game status and the next play. 4. Keep playing until you either lose possession or get a touchdown. 5. You total score is calculated as a function of the number of downs per metre gained and if a touchdown is achieved then the time taken to get the touchdown is also included in the score calculation. So the fastest and most efficient drives get the highest scores.

We are committed to regularly updating this skill based on user feedback. We will be adding features such as persistent stats, more plays, defence match-ups, user selectable reads from the route tree (e.g. "get a read on the post runner" etc.), probabilities tightly aligned to real game statistics and audible calls. So please let us know what features you would like the most via the feedback below or email to steven.bowden@protonmail.com
