An aging football coach finds himself struggling with his personal and professional life while trying to hold his team together. A star quarterback has been knocked out of the game and a naive football player replaces him only to become exposed to the world of sports and become a danger to himself and to his players. Meanwhile, the coach finds himself constantly at battle with the team owner's money and power hungry daughter intent on moving the team out.
Rating:8/10
This was almost the perfect football movie. It had a good story that went along with a good script. The acting was amazing all the way through. A lot of emotion portrayed by the cast. One of the weaknesses of the film was that it was way too long. There sould have been a half hour cut on this film and I think the intensity of this movie would have played better. The uniforms were horrible as well. Really bad looking and really ugly looking.
