Factual error: In all the scenes where the team is on the field playing football, the ball has white stripes. It is understood that the movie is based in the NFL. However, NFL footballs are a solid color; no stripes. Striped balls are used in College and HS football only.

Suggested correction: The movie is not based on the NFL, it's a fictional league, the American Football Federation. However, it's wrong that only college and high school footballs have the white stripe. The Canadian Football League (a professional league), USA Football, and the International Federation of American Football all use footballs with white stripes.
