Saw this movie on the train tonight. Senior year in the essay writing class, the teacher showed us a clip of the Eagles captain crawling 50 yards to death (it was to introduce us to the Super Bowl, hahaha), and I was very impressed. When I downloaded the video, I saw the poster. Guess it should be the same. Alright, let's say something serious.
The head coach Grant Taylor has coached the school football team for 6 years, and he has not achieved anything, and the audience is becoming more and more disappointed with them. Some people want to replace him with the assistant coach; at the same time, his life is also flawed. can do. One night, I occasionally heard the parents, assistant coaches and others discussing whether he should stay or not. After returning home, he was very sad and confused.
Afterwards, Taylor turned to Bible and developed a belief in him. One day Pastor Bridges came to his office and guided him. Taylor rhetorically asks whether God can actually fulfill his prayer, and Bridges guides Taylor with the story of two people begging for rain at the same time, but only one while preparing his land for God's rain. Taylor understood and acted, educating the team over the next few days, educating them that all they did was to glorify God, and God will hear our prayers and act in return. With Taylor's constant encouragement, captain Brock completed a 50-yard death crawl with a 160-pounder blindfolded, a move that inspired the team. After that, the team really formed a team and practiced very productively.
The following season, the Eagles beat several teams with relative ease, reaching the quarterfinals, narrowly losing to Princeton. After the game, it was found out that Priceton had illegally used two 19-year-old players and was disqualified. Eagles unexpectedly entered the quarter-finals of the national championship that season, and finally competed with Grants for Champion. Facing opponents with faster speed, stronger strength, and three times the number of team members, they also had doubts and hesitations, but they still faced each other directly and let God make the final result. The wife had her fourth pregnancy test this year before the finals, and was told that she was not pregnant. The result was that God made a joke. The medical staff mistaken the person corresponding to the test result, and the wife was pregnant with the baby. The two teams with disparity in strength met. The opponent took an absolute lead from the beginning and began to float. The Eagles unexpectedly won some points with unique tactics under the guidance of Taylor. They even took the lead for a time, and were naturally counterattacked by The Grants. , the players are exhausted. Captain Brock offered to leave the game twice, Taylor encouraged him, (the second time he promised Brock that he only needed to keep him 4 times without letting the opponent score) and made him support the confidence of the entire team in the name of the team needing him. The players built a human wall to resist the opponent's advance, intercepted the opponent's ball, and got rid of the opponent's pursuit. The score was 21:23, two points behind, and we could only hope for a free kick, and the coach of the other team just gave them such a chance. The long-range shooter had been injured by an opposing player, so Taylor pinned his hopes on David, who only hit 39 yards from the farthest. Taylor encouraged David to believe in himself, to think that he could achieve the result and kick, and David's father got up from his wheelchair to encourage him. In the end, David kicked the distance of 85 yards for the team to win 24:23.
The film ends with his wife pregnant with a second child and Taylor winning two trophies.
God will give rain to those who "pray earnestly and prepare their land." Do the process seriously, stick to it, and leave the result to God.
ps: First time writing, sorry. I don't like to spray lightly, and suggestions are welcome.
