NFL Quarterback Club '99 expands upon its predecessor's gameplay significantly through the addition of more fluent controls, animations and graphics. While these are seemingly minor additions to the game, these improvements can serve to make the game much more enjoyable and appealing to fans of the NFL.
The game allows the user to play as every NFL team that was available at the time (1999 NFL Season) and control all of its players, including newly drafted early round quarterbacks Peyton Manning and Ryan Leaf. Each team has ratings based on certain strengths and weaknesses observed in the 1998 NFL season and projections by the developers. This provides a realistic lack of power balance between a team like the San Diego Chargers and the Green Bay Packers.
In addition, the game featured teams from NFL Europe.[4]
Like its predecessor, the game features many glitches. The most notable is a glitch that allows a player who is controlling a quarterback the ability to gain a significant amount of speed, or sort of teleport, by using the pump fake technique.
