Using the Fast Play System, I was able to replay the entire 1969 AFL season schedule (10 teams, 14 game season, total of 70 games) in just 45 minutes.

Here are the season final standings:

Eastern Divsion
New York Jets 10-4-0
Miami Dolphins 8-5-1
Boston Patriots 7-6-1
Houston Oilers 7-7-0
Buffalo Bills 6-7-1

Western Division
Oakland Raiders 8-5-1
Cincinnati Bengals 6-7-1
San Deigo Chargers 6-7-1
Denver Broncos 5-8-1
Kansas City Chiefs 4-9-1

I did allow games to end in a tie since that was the AFL rule in 1969. The AFL playoff format in 1969 was for the second place finishers in each division to play the first place finishers in each division in the first round and the winners to meet in the championship game.

I will actually play these games. First game will be the Cincinnati Bengals vs. the San Diego Chargers in a special playoff game to determine the second place finisher in the Western Division. Then the winner of that game will play the New York Jets in one divisional playoff game and the Miami Dolphins will play the Oakland Raiders in the other divisional playoff game with the winners of those two games meeting for the AFL Championship game.

I guess I see the fast play system as merely a quick way to determine playoff teams.
