“I ran back punt returns and kickoff returns, and I played a pretty good game.” — Gale Sayers

Remember that. I ran from the line of scrimmage.

This is not a football film. It's about two individuals - two good friends telling their story.

My knee was torn up. I tore every ligament in my knee. It was a very, very bad injury. I had to do what the doctors told me to do, and I did that. The next year, I came back and led the league in rushing.

We had no preconceived ideas. We were on this football team to go out and win ballgames and try to win a championship, that's all. To Brian and me, it was no big deal.
