Order by the year each player joined the Atlanta Falcons. You place all 52 cards on one timeline, one at a time. You start with three lives, and ten right in a row wins a lost one back.
Atlanta's players are dealt one by one, and you order them by the year each first joined the Falcons. Each card prints his position as an abbreviation, such as RB or LB. A single player starts on the timeline with his year showing. Find a gap for every new card. Right placements reveal the year and stay put; wrong ones send the player to his true position and cost you one of three lives.
Atlanta joined the league as an expansion team, and the deck follows it through tough early years, some hard-hitting defenses, the occasional surge and the Super Bowl runs of more recent times. Running backs and receivers are the most common labels, with linebackers, cornerbacks and quarterbacks a step behind. With plenty of quiet seasons in between, journeymen and short-term starters are the cards that do the most damage.
