Mistake Factual error: Many scenes of Veterans Stadium show a track running around the perimeter of the football field. Veterans Stadium never had a track; however Franklin Field (where the movie was filmed since Veterans Stadium was imploded a few years ago) does have a track around the field.

Mistake Factual error: An Eagles player on the sidelines is wearing a headband with the current Eagles logo. The movie is set in 1976, before the current logo was designed.

Mistake Factual error: They show Veterans Stadium with only bleacher seating and a grass field. Vet Stadium had AstroTurf and individual seating, each level of seating was a different color. Also in the opening scene they show two guys leaving early walking up to leave. Later when Vince points to his friends they're shown in the same seats but in the 700 level, which you had to walk down to leave.

Mistake Factual error: Right before Vince goes to his first day of training camp, he is seen jogging. The first series of him jogging is geographically correct, as he is jogging in the streets of South Philly (in the area of 25th and Morris). However, in the next series of jogging shots, he is jogging in lower Frankford under the El, which is on the other side of the city. South Philly does not have an elevated subway, just an above ground freight line on South 25th St. This is similar to Rocky Balboa jogging all over Philly in the movie Rocky.

Mistake Factual error: One of the shots in Texas Stadium shows the Cowboy's Super Bowl banners from the 1990's. Submitted by pross79

Mistake Continuity: When Vince returns the fumbled punt for a touchdown they show shots of Vince from the end zone with players running behind him. In one shot you can see 57 over Vince's left shoulder about 2-3 yards back, then in the next shot 57 is running about 10 yards behind Vince, and then in next shot you can see 57 over Vince's left shoulder again about 2-3 yards back.

Mistake Factual error: During the Giant's game when Vince is knocked out of bounds, you can see he has Power shoulders pads on. They where not around in 1976. Submitted by pross79

Mistake Factual error: In the opening scene where the Eagles lose to end the season, the scoreboard time clock shows tenths of a second. They did not have tenths on game clocks back in the 1970's.

Mistake Continuity: When the Eagles play the Giants near the end of the movie, Vince tackles 41 (white guy) on the opening kickoff. Later on, after the Eagles score a touchdown, Vince again tackles 41 (white guy) who says "somebody block that guy". Later on, Vince is blocked by two Giants, one of whom is 41 and a black guy.
