After a brutal previous season, the New England Patriots have started anew. Coach Roddy McCracken has dedicated his life to making the Patriots a contender.Now his main project is Stan Jueggerman, a much-maligned, first-round draft pick. The coach is building a team around the rookie and his top wide receiver, Shep Mannix.The defense is led by Nelson Bomar, a fierce middle linebacker and captain of the defense. Charley Sperling, the team's owner, lights a fire under the linebacker when the player expresses strong interest in returning with a multi-year contract so he can retire as a Patriot.Under Coach McCracken's guidance, the story winds through Foxboro, Massachusetts, as well as several host cities in their quest for a championship.
