Wouldn't it be cool if it worked like one of the robots was the QB, and other a WR, and the final robot trying to play defense?

I agree with Pikachu...as cool as it would be to have different roles, this would severely limit the number of possible alliances, especially if those roles were FIRST-defined. I'd expect much of the challenge of a football game to come from developing a mechanism that can effectively collect, orient, and shoot a football.

Ultimate Ascent had the only irregular flying game pieces that I can think of, and Frisbees are a lot easier that footballs to deal with.
