Description: The intent here is to enable the simulation of
        plays/drives and evaluate game-play strategies in the National
        Football League (NFL). Built-in strategies include going for it
        on fourth down and varying the proportion of passing/rushing
        plays during a drive. The user should be familiar with
        nflscrapR data before trying to write his/her own strategies.
        This work is inspired by a blog post by Mike Lopez, currently
        the Director of Data and Analytics at the NFL, Lopez (2019)
