Synopsis: Bill Parcells had earned living-legend status after transforming the Giants, Patriots, and Jets into champions. But in the final weeks of the 2002 season, he found himself living in a self-imposed exile from the National Football League. His heart aching, the Tuna yearned for another lost cause. Enter Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones. Deep in the heart of Texas, Jones''s once-proud pro football powerhouse had suffered through three straight disastrous seasons. The Tuna and Jones needed each other in the worst kind of way. After a clandestine meeting, Parcells agreed to travel south to restore life to the Cowboys. Football pundits shouted, "Parcells and Jones can't stand each other! It'll never work!" As usual, the pundits were wrong. With Parcells applying his witchcraft, Dallas rolled to a 10-6 regular season record and shocked the NFL by making the playoffs.
