The story

Ron "Cat" Catlan once led the New Orleans Saints to a championship and is heralded by his teammates, coaches, and sportswriters as an all-time great quarterback. After 15 years in pro football, his skills have declined and he struggles with repeated injuries, though he continues to believe that he is the best in the game. Cat tries to compensate for his failing skills with booze and an extramarital affair.
