Rating: 3/5 --
A paint-by-numbers story that offers no surprises and a hero and villain etched in white and black with few shades of gray.
New York Times
Rating: 2.5/4 --
Although the film takes a worthwhile detour or two, it ultimately finds its way back to the well-worn track of its genre.

...someone could make a very interesting, nuanced film about the exalted place that high school football holds in some parts of Texas... this isn't that film.
Arkansas Democrat-Gazette
...[Van Der Beek] is solidly appealing...
Rolling Stone
...Flashy gridiron showdowns....A pungent portrait of a small-town community in the grip of an obsession... -- Rating: B

Scenes work, but they don't pile up and build momentum.

Product Description:
Jon "Mox" Moxon (James Van Der Beek, TV's DAWSON'S CREEK) is the second string quarterback of the Coyotes of West Canaan, Texas. When the star quarterback (Paul Walker) suffers a knee injury just as the team is about to win their 23rd championship in 30 years, Mox is in the hot seat. Mox, however, is more interested in getting accepted to Brown, a view which is at odds with that of the pigskin-crazy town as well as that of militaristic Coach Kilmer (Jon Voight). But when Mox becomes a town hero for his football prowess, will his sights be swayed from his academic pursuits' This surprise hit from MTV Pictures was directed by Brian Robbins (HARDBALL).
