All language subtitles for Friday Night Lights - S01E02 - Eyes Wide Open.eng

MAN: Sports Illustrated
has this as

the number one high school
football team in Texas.

Got yourself a heck
of a quarterback.

He's a good boy.
Very proud of him.

Is it true, Mr. Street?
That I love Lyla Garrity?

Here's to God and football,
and 10 years from now, Street,

good friends living large
in Texas.

We feel fully prepared to
represent this beloved community

this Friday night
and every Friday night.

You've earned this,
the right to win.

COMMENTATOR 1: Street throws a wobbler.
It gets picked off by Chandler.

Street, the only one
able to get to him.

COMMENTATOR 2.'
That's a gigantic hit on Street.

Doctor.

TAYLOR: Saracen.

COMMENTATOR 1: ...quarterback.
No one's seen this guy...

TAYLOR: Start
throwing the ball, son.

COMMENTATOR 1: Matt Saracen dropping
back to pass. He throws the ball.

Oh, man.

COMMENTATOR 2: Man,
can this kid throw the ball!

TAYLOR: Give all of us the strength to
remember that what we have is special,

that it can be taken from us,
and that when it is, we will be tested.

GRADY: It is a blessing to be in the
house of the Lord amongst believers.

CONGREGATION: Amen.

We do know that on Friday night

one of our brothers, brother Jason,
was injured in a football game.

The doctors are saying that it's
possible he Could be paralyzed.

But we know of a doctor
who's greater than any doctor.

CONGREGATION: Yes! Amen!

[CONGREGATION CLAPPING]

I have prayed with Mitchell
and Joanne Street.

And as an entire community,
we have come together in prayer

and hope and faith.

And with these prayers,
this thing, this hope,

I believe Jason Street
will once again walk in

on his own two feet
and join this congregation

and rejoice with us.

BILLY: I saw that tackle,
little brother.

I saw him hit that turf.

Tell you what I think,

he's talking about
wanting to play football.

He ain't ever gonna walk again.

And we know he's gonna be fine.
He's gonna walk again.

LYLA: We've just got to go
through rehab.

Best-case scenario,
Jason's probably out for a month.

You know, it's probably
a lot longer than that.

But we need a plan
for Friday night.

We...

Heck, we need a plan for the rest of
the season, is what we need, Eric.

So, tell me, you think little

Matt Saracen can get it done?

I guess we're fixing to find out.
Yeah.

That was a nice sermon,
wasn't it?

Hey, Matt?

How's it going, Coach?

We got a lot of work to do, son.

Yes, sir.

MAN: Hey, Lyla.
Hi. There he is.

How you doing?
Better now.

You ever hear of Nathan Foreman?
Who?

Excuse me, Doc? Can you come
help me with this, please?

Just grab this side, please.

You ever heard
of Nathan Foreman?

Uh, no.

I was on the Internet last
night reading about this guy,

had a terrible spinal injury,
kind of like yours.

He's now playing varsity
basketball for UC San Diego.

I'm surprised you've never
heard of this.

DOCTOR: No, I'm oncology, actually.
I was just passing.

Oh, right. Well, can you hold this up for
me, please, while I tape this? Thanks.

LYLA: Isn't this amazing?

The cheerleaders and rally girls
have actually joined forces.

It's real nice.
Thanks so much.

You know, Nathan Foreman
missed one season

and the NCAA voted to give him
an extra year of eligibility.

Look at me, Jason.
Look at me.

This is gonna be okay.

Yeah.

Okay?

Okay.

I love you.
I love you, too.

RADIO ANNOUNCER: Well, there's
no silver lining to this one.

This is just a tragic blow to
the season any way you slice it.

Jason Street is the Panthers.

The team's been built
around him.

Now you've got this kid,
this 160-pound sophomore, Matt Sorenson?

He didn't get your name right.

RADIO CALLER: He just closed
his eyes and threw that ball.

That kid comes in with three
minutes left in the fourth quarter

with that kind of
adrenaline rush,

and anyone could throw
one nice pass.

RADIO ANNOUNCER: All I'm saying
is you better to go to church

and do a little praying.

We're still waiting to hear.

They got a specialist coming
in from Houston.

In the meantime, it doesn't make any
sense and it does nobody any good

to make any predictions one way or the
other until we get the official word.

Understood?
ALL: Yes, sir.

As far as football,
we got a game Friday.

We've got a lot of work to do.

MAN: Go, go, go.

Two, two, two, two, two.

Blue 80!

Hut!

Hit him deep! Hit him deep!

[WHISTLE BLOWING]

Time!

Matt, you've got
to throw faster, son.

Dolia's open on the break,
you gotta hit him on the break.

Sorry, Coach. I thought that he...
I don't want you to say sorry.

I don't want you
thinking out here.

I want you to throw the ball.
Dolia runs deep, hit him deep.

He's open on the break,
you hit him on the break.

Four seconds for a five-step drop, Matt.
That's all you got.

Come on.
Let's do it again.

[WHISTLE BLOWING]

McGILL: For God's sake, Matt!

TAYLOR: Come here.
What happened?

I didn't see the linebacker.

You didn't what?
He's bigger than my front door, Matt.

South Milbank runs five-three.

They're gonna drop the linebackers,
we set up in the gun.

You got that?
All right, Coach.

I've gotta work
on reading the coverage...

You need to look at the wide receiver
coming underneath the linebacker.

Timing patterns.
Yes, sir.

Hit them on the break.
Yes, sir.

Hit them on the breaks and play faster.
Yes, sir. Yes, sir.

BOY: Hut!

[WHISTLE BLOWING]

TAYLOR: Saracen.

I need you to work a little bit harder.
You need to learn this offense, son.

You need to know this offense
in your mind, in your body.

You need to know this offense
so well

that your children are gonna know
this offense in their own DNA.

Do you understand me?

You understand?
Yes, sir.

All right. Go on.

TAMI: Okay, you all,
I'm out of here.

I'm telling you,
you shouldn't go to this book club, Mom.

They're just going to turn
you into a pod. I know.

I'm just gonna go one time and
show them my literary prowess.

And then I'll be done with them.

Hey, come here. Come here.

I love you.

I love you, too, babe.

To the girls' night.
Girls.

Cheers.

We are so glad you're here.
Thank you.

We are thrilled that you're
here with our book club!

Thank you. I'm so thrilled to be here.
I love the book.

Oh, that's great. No one told you.
We don't really read the book.

You all didn't read the book?
Oh, no, we're just here to have fun.

Get away from the boys,
you know.

So, tell me, how does your
husband feel about the team?

Exactly. Let's talk
about what's important.

He's excited about the team.

You know, are you sure?

Listen, he should play
my Robby deep more.

But he should be doing...

He should be running more drives
that count straight ahead.

Do you have any idea what his
plans are for Robby? I don't.

Smash mouth football.
Smash mouth football.

I'm telling you,
about three yards

and a cloud of dust...
This boy is ready to rumble.

So, look,
you got my math homework?

Well, where is it?
In my home.

I got to come to your house
and pick it up, huh? You bet.

You gonna be there?
Of course.

Okay, all righty, all righty.

I can't believe it.

Just three days ago,
we were right here.

Jason Street was literally
sitting right over there.

Could they be more annoying?

I mean, seriously.

Hey! Hey, yeah, you.

You don't even know Jason Street,
so stop crying.

Okay, no, seriously, stop.

So, just how drunk
are you right now?

SMASH: Look, we can't just
sit around and cry about it.

Somebody's got to take control.

You know, like,
when one person drops the ball,

somebody's got to jump
on the fumble.

[CROWD MURMURING AGREEMENT]

You pointed at me?
That's me, right.

Yeah, I know
what I've got to do.

I can't afford to lose,
this is ours. I want to get to State.

Hey, Matt. So, I'm yours.

Sorry?

Well, now that you're first string,
you get a first string rally girl.

So, the way
this usually works is

you tell me what you like,
and I'll provide it.

What do you like, Matt?

Uh, I like...

I make a mean chocolate coconut
cake made with real butter.

Well, that sounds real...

Tell you what, why don't you try it, see
what you think, and we'll go from there?

Yeah, that sounds good.

Okay, can we just pause
for a second and reflect

on the implications of this?
No, no, no. I can't. No.

I can't think about girls
right now.

Because I've got a big game
on Friday, so...

I mean, this is it. We've got
to seize our opportunity.

I mean, you're QB One now.

You know, me and you. Me and you?
What do you even have to do with it?

Besides, it doesn't seem right with
Jason sitting there in that hospital

just laying there and all.

Well, maybe it's not right,
but it's what we got.

You know, four or five weeks, he's back
on the team, you're second string again.

You know, the rally girls, they pack up their
little tin, they move right down the road.

Think this team needs a leader?

BOY 1: Yeah. It does. Yeah.
BOY 2: It does, man.

Look no further.

I'm gonna lead this team.
I know what I've got to do.

You all gonna be with me?
ALL: Yeah!

I'm gonna take us straight
to State.

Just because Street went down
don't mean we just stop playing.

Look, everybody get behind the Smash
and we won't miss a beat, baby.

Tim, no. Don't do this.

SMASH: I'm saying we need to hit
the weight room tomorrow, hard.

We've got to step it up.
Look, you've got to run your routes.

Hey, what's up, Rigg?
Get up.

What? You're sitting in Street's booth.
Get up.

Look, what are you
talking about, man?

You heard what I said.

Why don't you go home
and sleep it off, Rigg?

Be on time at practice
for a change.

You're right.

You guys enjoy the rest
of your evening, okay?

Hey, smile, Rigg.

God don't like ugly.

Hey! Hey, man!
What's wrong with you?

No, no.
What's the matter with you?

BOY: He's not worth it!
SMASH: Come on, Riggins!

BOY: Sit down!

No, I think it's a great cause.

When I was younger, I used to...

Well, sure I'd love to help out.

All right. I could do that.

Rice Krispie treats?

No, Rice Krispie
treats are great,

and I do prefer them
with the M&M's in. Yeah.

I'll probably just make them
out of a box.

Oh, that many?
It's broken.

Okay, I would be happy
to do that. Sure.

All right, and thank you so much again
for last night. It was just wonderful.

Okay, I'll talk to you later.
Bye!

I swear, I've got to make 200
Rice Krispie treats by Saturday.

I went to that book club meeting
last night, I'm on 12 committees now!

JULIE: Told you.
It's a slippery slope.

TAYLOR: Oh, God.
How's the AC?

It's broken. You were right.
Call the guy. I'm sorry.

Sugar, I think it's time
for me to get a job.

I mean, we talked about it,
we're settled. I think it's all right.

Are you gonna do it now?
Yeah, I think now.

I'm gonna put out
some feelers, all right?

All right.
All right.

That's great.
Nothing you need to worry about.

RODELL: Now, those boys, those boys
have always been weak against the run.

And this year is no different.

They cannot defend against the
ground game. Am I right, Rich?

That's exactly right.
So, it's simple.

You give Smash the ball
and you let him do his thing.

Yeah, don't let Saracen
throw the ball.

[LAUGHING] No.

We don't want any more of our
boys beaned in the helmet.

That was funny.

That boy cannot do the job.
No.

I mean, you can't just sit back and close
your eyes and expect a miracle to happen

every time you throw the football.
It just ain't gonna happen.

That boy will lose us ballgames.

Hey, now, ease off on all these
pearls of football wisdom down there

and let Eric finish his riblets.

RODELL: That's right.
He's right.

Because, I mean, he knows
what it takes on Friday night.

That's right.
BUDDY: Big old W.

You know, I just want to say,

I'm gonna keep all this in mind.

And thank you very much for this meal.
It was a fantastic meal.

Well, it's our pleasure.
Fantastic meal.

Hut!

[PEOPLE EXCLAIMING]

McGILL: Oh,
for God's sake, Matt!

Don't you think we ought start
focusing on our ground game?

MAN: Come on!

We give this kid too much
to think about,

and he's gonna fall apart in
front of our eyes, big time.

Let's go! Thanks, Coach.
I'll run the practice today.

All right, power 26.

Hut!

[GRUNTING]

McGILL: Hit somebody!
Pick it up now!

I've seen my granddaddy make
better blocks playing checkers.

If you could run as fast as you talk,
we'd probably score every play.

Look, you got something...
That's a fact!

You got something to say to me?

You need to start getting behind
my blocks, right behind me!

I can't keep doing all this!

You need to quit
making excuses...

You need to start using
those legs!

[ALL SHOUTING]

Hey, what's going on?

[WHISTLE BLOWING]

[ALL YELLING]

MAN: Knock it off!

McGILL: Get out of here!
Come on.

[SHOUTING]

MAN: Get back over here!
Get over here!

Hey, Smash.
Hey.

Look, your boyfriend's
a real piece of work.

Well, at the moment,
I wouldn't really call him my boyfriend.

Why are you empty-handed, girl?

Go on back there and get
some bags out of that car.

You know I'm not supposed to
put stress on my back. Why me?

So you're not around to get
the back of my hand is why.

Brian never has to do anything.
Brian, turn down that junk.

That's not music,
it's the devil's work is what it is.

[HIP-HOP MUSIC
PLAYING ON STEREO]

Have you lost your mind?

You must be Mrs. Williams.
Yes, I am.

Messing with white girls after
getting in a fight at practice.

You're coming with me.

Move.

Is this to get back at Tim Riggins?
What are you, a shrink?

Oh, that'd be nice.

I work at Planned Parenthood. You
probably haven't seen the last of me.

Hey, I know how to use protection.
I'm not some piece of trash.

Oh, no, you're a class act
all the way.

What the hell is that
supposed to mean?

It means you're safe
to walk from here.

Come on.

[PENCIL TAPPING]

Hi.

Hey, Coach.

How are you feeling?

Well, I'm not really
feeling too much

right now.

I, uh... The guys...

All the guys signed it up
for you.

They...

They all say hello.

Did Riggins sign that?

Riggins signed.
Everyone signed it.

[LAUGHS]

When did you teach him
how to write his name?

It's just scrawled on there.
He didn't really...

That's real nice, Coach.
Here.

Just set it down here.
Thank you.

Hey, I'm...

Look, I don't think anyone
needs to tell you, but, uh,

you know we're saving
your spot over there.

You know, whatever it takes,
however long it takes.

We, uh...

How's...

How's Saracen doing?

Saracen's doing fine. He's throwing
like a girl, but he's doing fine.

He's doing fine. It'll take some time.
[CHUCKLES] Well, uh,

you know, when I was kind of
like that kid, you know?

I don't know,
he's a lot different than me.

He doesn't need to roll back
like I do.

He's kind of creative, you know.

Listens to Bob Dylan
and draws pictures of stuff.

I know he's a...

He's a good kid. I think

you free him up a little bit
out there on that field,

he'll make some things
happen for you.

You're a good man.
You're a good man.

You're what makes guys
like me want to coach.

You are a good man.

I'm sorry if I let you down.

I let the team down.

Damn, son,
you didn't let me down.

You did not let me down.

LANDRY: The problem is is that they
keep comparing you to Jason Street.

I mean, that's like,
that's like comparing my music

to the Red Hot Chili Peppers
or something.

I'm not the
Red Hot Chili Peppers.

I mean, I'm my own thing.

I'm not any better or any worse,
it's just different.

You're definitely
a whole lot worse.

Okay, well, that's not
the point, all right?

The point is you got to learn
how to work the media.

You know, let them know
who Matt Saracen is.

Right now the bitches can't
even get your name right.

Well, who is Matt Saracen?
Who is Matt Saracen?

Matt Saracen is QB One.

And when the camera starts rolling,
you start spewing stuff out.

You know what I mean?
I mean, just be out there.

The weirder you are,
the better, really.

[ROCK MUSIC PLAYING
ON CAR STEREO]

Not everyone's gonna be
the Red Hot Chili Peppers.

I mean Jason Street
is a great guy

and everyone knows
what he's all about.

So he's like... He's like
the Red Hot Chili Peppers.

But... And everyone likes that and
that's good, but that's not me.

INTERVIEWER: Well, if Jason Street
is the Red Hot Chili Peppers,

who are you?

Uh, exactly. Who am I?

Who am I?

[CHANTING]
Big "G," little "O"! Go! Go!

Big "G," little "O"! Go! Go!

Big "G," little "O"! Go! Go!

Hey, Tim.

Tim, hey.
Hey.

How are you doing with all of this?
Yeah, you know.

Yeah.

Look, I know you're not a chatterbox
when it comes to your feelings,

but I'm here.

Yeah, cool.

You know,
Jason's been asking about you.

Yeah. How is Jay?
He's good.

He's real good.
He's still Jason.

I know.

I was gonna go over there
later around 8:00.

Visiting hours are over at 6:00,
but I've kind of got the place wired.

[CHUCKLES]

You want to come with?

You know, you wait too long,
he might start taking it personal, Tim.

DOCTOR: The MRI shows damage to
the cord at the C7-T1 juncture.

It could be much worse.

Jason, you're fortunate that
the fracture was low enough

that you'll still be able
to use your arms and hands.

It's okay.

What about my legs, Doc?

We'll just keep praying and then
once you start physical therapy...

Ma.

Dr. Kroll,

I just want to know if I'm
gonna be able to walk again.

Please. Look, I can take it.
All you got to do is tell me the truth.

WOMAN: Tami, Tami!
Hey!

How are you?
Good, how are you? Good.

Good to see you the other night.
You, too.

You all have a good dinner.
Okay. You, too.

Hey.
Hey.

I'm so sorry.

That's all right.

That's all right.
I made a couple of dates for next week.

One with the hog farmer
from Rio Tinto.

Hog farmer from Rio Tinto,
that's a new one. Where's my daughter?

I've always liked hog farmers.
Your daughter is at dance rehearsal,

which I told you about 20 times.

Oh.
How was your day?

My day, my day...

Sweetheart, would you take your
hat off at the table, please?

You look so cute.

You go first.

Okay, you want the good news
or the bad news? No, good news.

Always the good news. All right,
I'll give you the bad news.

AC done. Like I said,
we need a new unit.

$3,000 minimum.

What's the good news?
There a cold front moving in?

No, good news is that I think I might
be able to help you pay for the new unit

'cause I think
I got myself a job.

Really?
Mmm-hmm.

That fast, you got a job?
Yeah.

Where did you get the job?
At the school.

What school?
At the high school.

At my high school?

I wasn't aware that
you had bought it, but yeah.

I'm the new guidance counselor
at the high school.

You know, guidance counselors
can be a nuisance...

Eric... and that means that
we're gonna have some interaction.

That's good. I like that we're gonna...
Guidance counselors...

I think that's great that we're
gonna have some interaction.

Well, I just think that we
should probably talk about it.

Well, I've taken
the job already.

[CELL PHONE RINGING]

Well, gee, what happened to the
consultation we were gonna have?

Hello, Coach Taylor. Yeah.

Thank you. It's the hospital
calling about Jason.

Yeah? Hi. Yeah.

Right, keep it down, guys.
Coach is here.

[CLEARING THROAT]

Jason's paralyzed.

They said with physical therapy

he'll regain use of his arms,
his hands, his upper body,

but they don't think he's
gonna regain use of his legs.

Listen up.

Any of you need to talk to me,

you'll find me in my office

or you call me anytime.
Do not hesitate.

[CLEARS THROAT] Now, that's all for
today. We'll pick it up tomorrow.

LANDRY: L-Right

Uh, open right...

Open right,
draw to the tailback,

off the right, uh, tackle.

LANDRY: Okay, there you go.
You got one.

Pro-left motion, XY-eagle?

Five-step drop. X receiver
runs a five-yard out,

and the wide receiver
runs a button hook.

Close. The fullback releases... No,
the fullback releases

under the outside
linebackers. Damn it!

Why are you yelling at me?
I'm not.

I mean, you only got, like, 250 or
so variations to go after this and...

You gonna give me my fries
any time soon?

Oh, I'm sorry.

Sorry. Here,
you can have a free drink.

Sorry about the wait.
Sorry.

Lyla?

I know. I should go.

I'll be back
at 6:00, okay?

That's not what I'm saying.
Lyla.

What?

We have to talk about this.
All right. About me.

I spoke to Dr. Kroll.
He didn't say it was impossible.

Lyla, it would take a miracle
for me to walk again. I mean,

that's just not gonna happen.
You know what I think?

I don't think Dr. Kroll
realizes who you are.

We're gonna go out and we're gonna
find the best doctors out there.

That's what we're gonna do.
Lyla, just don't...

You are Jason Street
and I am Lyla Garrity,

and everything is gonna work
out just the way we planned it.

Thank you, Lord, for all that you
have given to Jason and myself.

We don't know yet why you are
putting us through this test,

but I know that
you'll find a way to show us,

and we will pull through this test,
whatever it takes.

Amen.

Amen. Amen.

I saw you pulling up.
Uh-huh. Thought you might.

Well, look at that.
Field's empty. Let's go make out.

[TAYLOR LAUGHING]

How are you doing?

Matt Saracen isn't ready
for this.

This town...

Oh, this town expects.
This town expects State.

They expect nothing less, babe.
I know.

And I can tell you what
right now,

I have no idea whether or not
we can even win a game.

And I'm serious when I say that.

Yeah. Well,

I know what you're gonna do.

I know that you're gonna
mold that boy.

You are gonna mold Matt Saracen the
same way you did with Jason Street.

You did it with Jeff Perell back
in Macedonia. You took that kid in.

I mean, he didn't know the difference
between a skinny post and out and up.

You made him the best quarterback
in the league. You did that.

Yeah, well, I also had close to a year to
get him ready. It's a little bit different.

Well, well... I got no time here.
I got no time.

I lose a game, I'm on the road.

I lose a couple more,
we're packing our bags.

And I tell you what,
what they say, it's right.

I mean, Jason Street,
he was my meal ticket.

He was the only reason I got this job,
and God bless that boy,

but I am screwed.

You know what?

I...

There is not a person in
the world that could do this

except for you.

This is what you do.
I see you do it with my own eyes.

I believe in you.

I believe in you
with every cell in my being.

Grandma, you need to go into
your room for a minute, okay?

Hmm?
Grandma, please?

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

Who is it, honey?
Who is it?

Matt, it's Coach Taylor.
Who?

It's Coach Taylor. Hey, Coach.
Coach Taylor's here? Coach!

How's it going?
TAYLOR: Good, good.

Do you want to open the door?

Oh, yeah, how about
we just go outside?

I think I'd like to come inside.

Okay.

MATT: So, uh, I'm fine.
I'm fine.

What's going on?

Oh, not much. I just thought I'd stop
by. I wanted to have a chat with you.

MATT: Oh, it's okay.
Okay.

Is everything all right?

I thought maybe we'd go over.
Hi. How are you, Coach?

Hello. How are you?
Very nice to meet you. Thank you.

Nice to see you. Sit down.
Honey, move those books. Oh, sorry.

And I brought you some cake.
I hope you'll enjoy it. Sit down.

Have some. I appreciate that.
I'll tell you what.

Wasn't he wonderful
Friday night?

TAYLOR: Matt was.
Thanks, Grandma.

I'm so proud of him.
You should be proud of him.

I'll tell you what,
if it's okay with you,

I'd like to take Matt off your hands
for about an hour or something.

I'd like to discuss with him as
far as the football game this week.

Oh, yes, you do have a big game.
And, yes, you can take him.

Thank you, ma'am.

Okay, I'll have him back soon.
But I want you to come back.

I will come back.
Come back for some more cake.

All right. You better do that.
Next time I'll have the milk, too.

I'll get you some milk.
All right. All right.

And I've got hot chocolate and
everything you could want. All right.

MATT: You get some rest,
Grandma, okay?

All right. I'll wait for you.
Okay.

Now, you listen.
You listen to him.

I will. Move your feet.
Move your feet.

I love you, Grandma.
Love you.

Will do.

[CHUCKLING]

Coach Taylor.

TAYLOR: I could never sleep
the night before a game.

In my head I'd go over the plays over
and over. It would drive me crazy.

I even bought a book on meditation,
that didn't work.

Your dad in Iraq, that must be hard.
It's not so bad, sir.

I'll tell you what, my dad,
he was anything but in Iraq.

My dad was on me
day in, day out.

He still thinks I should have
made the NFL.

But as much as I complain
about him,

I don't know
where I'd be without him.

You know, you,
I don't know how you do it.

You got your time commitments, you got
your pressures, you got your studies.

All that and being the man
of the house, too. Yes, sir.

I'll tell you something,

I know you didn't want me to
step foot in your house tonight.

But I'll tell you something else
and don't you ever forget this.

You should feel proud,
you should feel real proud.

Yes, sir.

This is all yours
for the taking.

It depends on how much you want it.
It's yours for the taking.

And the other night, you played for a
few minutes. Tomorrow, four quarters.

You can't be distracted
by anything.

You're gonna have a lot of distractions.
You're gonna have our fans, their fans,

you got the band,
you got the cheerleaders

with their pretty, young,
shapely legs bouncing up and down.

You got a job to do.
Nothing else.

[CROWD CHEERING OVER SPEAKERS]

Your teammates are gonna
need to hear you.

You call the plays.
You gonna be able to call the plays?

Yes, sir.
Twenty-two rocket on hit.

Twenty-two. Twenty-two...
I can't hear you.

Twenty-two!

I can't hear you.
Twenty... Twenty-two!

Twenty-two rocket. Listen to me,
you're QB One of the Dillon Panthers.

Your teammates, if they can hear you,
they will believe in you!

Now, you let it out until it hurts,
you understand me? Twenty-two!

Twenty-two rocket!
Hit! Hit! Hit!

Forty-four crossfire on red!

Forty-four!
Forty-four crossfire!

Red! Red! Red!
What's your name?

Matt Saracen!
What do you play?

QB One!
And how do you play it?

Perfectly!
We'll see about that.

Who do you play for Saracen?
Dillon Panthers!

How much do you want this?

I want it, Coach!
How much do you want this?

I want it!
Then take it!

Do it again!

Forty-four crossfire!
Hit! Hit! Hit!

BUDDY: Eric, you know, you and I
have known each other a long time.

I've known you since, well,
I was just a salesman here

and you were the junior high
coach over there.

And, well, you probably liked
me a lot more then, didn't you?

I wouldn't say that. I don't know.
Well, I like you, Eric.

I just want you to always know that.
I like you and I believe in you.

And I'm glad you're back here with us.
Good. I appreciate that.

So, it's Friday night.

You feel it? You ready
for game night?

Right? You ready to go? Mmm-hmm.
We're gonna give them our best. You bet.

Well, I don't want to hear that.

This is not just some game. You realize
that after what's happened with Jason.

I mean, this is about tradition.
It's about this town.

It's about the spirit
and keeping this town alive.

It's football.
It's all we got.

Now, if we lose this game,
this town is just gonna be in a turmoil.

And I don't need that.
Oh, we don't we need that.

No. This team needs a W.

This town needs a W.

Hey, always friends. Good.
All right.

Go get them tonight, Coach.

Always friends.
Always and ever.

Always.

TAYLOR: All right, listen up!

We've suffered a big loss.
A big loss.

Some of you may be scared.

That's natural.
Some of you may be really pissed off.

One good thing about football is
we get to channel that energy.

This team has never been about one player.
It's about all of us. Every single one of us.

And if we're gonna come back from this
loss, we're gonna need every one of us.

Not one man. Every single
one of us together.

All right, let's pray.

Dear Lord, please let us have
a successful night tonight.

CROWD: Go Panthers, go!
Go Panthers, go!

A safe game. Please let us all
play to our fullest potential.

Please look over Jason Street.

Let him know that he's in all of our
hearts. We love him and we miss him.

Thine is the kingdom, the power and
the glory forever and ever. Amen.

ALL: Amen!

Clear eyes, full hearts...
ALL: Can't lose!

Let's get them!

[ALL YELLING]

Let's get them out there now!

TAYLOR: Good luck.

You up for this?
Yes, sir.

Let me ask you one question.

Last Friday night, when you threw
that pass, that winning pass,

did you close your eyes?
No, sir.

My eyes were open, sir.
My eyes were wide open.

That's what I thought.
Let's go play football! Come on!
