Realsports Football is a 1982 football video game made by Atari for several of their platforms. The game was released on both the 2600 and 5200 platforms.

Realsports Football presented a greatly simplified version of football for play. Players in the game cannot fumble the football and there are no penalties in the game. Also touchdowns automatically score 7 points - there is no kicking for extra points in the game. But the game has very good graphics.
