From BoardGameGeek
Every football game tells a story. The underdog claws back from a big deficit to force Overtime. The favorite destroys the competition. Two evenly matched teams trade lead changes back and forth in an epic tug of war. Welcome to Breakaway Football: Red Zone where these stories develop quickly like a TV highlight package. The Red Zone expansion set allows players to simulate games between any two Breakaway Football teams in under 15 minutes. Using core playbook and new defense AI cards, players resolve whole drives with a single play card, then populate the Drive Summary with the results. After 8 drives per team, the game ends, making for a fast, fun simulation that accounts for team strengths and weaknesses, how teams matchup against each other, and Home Field Advantage. Red Zone is perfect for quickly running complete seasons or non-coached tournament games. -description from the publisher
