False Start Films Podcast is where real football coaches watch and analyze football movies. Each episode, two coaches (and maybe more) break down the most iconic (and ridiculous) football films, calling out bad schemes, fake toughness, blown assignments, and coaching decisions that would get you fired by Monday morning.
From impossible timelines to miracle play calls, we throw flags on Hollywood’s biggest football lies—while giving credit when a movie actually gets it right. If you’ve ever yelled “That’s not how football works” at your TV, this podcast is for you.
