Every running play takes into account both the offensive line and defense located where the play is to be run. PC Football has the most realistic penalty system in the hobby. Penalties can occur on any play. This means any play, even long touchdowns may occasionally be called back. The offending players are even singled out by name.
Every player has an injury rating.
Injuries, depending on their severity, can affect a few plays to as much as a big portion of the season. Wind, precipitation and temperature all play a role in game results. Rules regarding penalties, clock usage, kickoffs, field goals and goal post location are built into the game. The game user can customize the rules for his particular league. PC Football is very flexible.
