The film tells the story of the Washington Sentinels, a team that hires substitutes during a football lockout. The film doesn’t necessarily follow NFL rules, especially when it comes to penalties. According to IMDb, during their game against Dallas, a referee calls multiple unnecessary roughness penalties and wonders how many yards to give. In the NFL, you can call only one penalty per team, so it would have been just 15 yards.
