Also known as: NFL Quarterback Club '95

This game was released for several formats (including Genesis and Super Nintendo) in 1994. The 32X version is very similar to the Genesis version, but has the usual improvements: slightly bigger sprites, clearer sound and more colors. So as usual, if you have the Genesis version already, there's no need to go after the 32X version also. Since I know as much about American football as I do baseball, I don't have much to say about this. This is the only choice if you want a football game for the 32X though.

Pick a mode and then pick a team. You can play a full season and can set various options, such as what the weather conditions will be and the length of each quarter. Battery back-up lets you save your progress.

Along with the season there is a pre-season mode, where you can pick whichever team you want and then also pick the opposing team to play a single game. The playoffs is a tournament mode where several teams will compete. Whichever teams lose will get knocked out until there are only two games left, and then the final game will play.

Simulation mode lets you play custom games, where you can re-live historic football moments. These scenarios give you a short amount of time to achieve a specific goal.
