NFL Head Coach is an American football video game which was first sold on June 20, 2006. Touted by publisher EA Sports as the first true 3D sports strategy game, it featured then-active Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Bill Cowher on the cover.
The concept behind the game puts the player in the position of a head coach for an NFL franchise. The player will make roster moves, create playbooks, and hire and fire assistant coaches. Success is measured by wins, playoff success, how well the player does in the NFL draft and the careers of assistants.
The game begins the week after Super Bowl XL. The coach that the player is about to take control of was formerly the offensive/defensive coordinator for the Super Bowl Champion Pittsburgh Steelers and is now ready to move up to take the reins of an entire team. First, the player selects a team and then proceeds to the job interview. Depending on how well the interview goes, the player will get up to 5 offers from 5 teams. The player selects a team and then signs a contract with them. In addition to being the head coach, the player is also the general manager of the team. On the first day, the player will meet the team owner. Aside from meeting the team owner, the player also meets the other coaches with whom he will work.
On February 26, 2008, EA Sports announced the sequel to NFL Head Coach, to be released in the Summer of 2008 for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, entitled NFL Head Coach 09.
Inaccuracies
- The initial player draft was faulty and unbelievable; A.J. Hawk was usually the first pick, with Reggie Bush and Vince Young as mid-first round picks, and Ernie Sims being a fifth or sixth round pick.
- Jerome Bettis is on the Pittsburgh Steelers roster, despite the fact that Bettis retired during the post game celebration after Super Bowl XL, the time at which the game begins. Other, then-retired players such as Wayne Chrebet are also in the game.
- In the game quarterback Kellen Clemens, a white player with short hair, is black with dreadlocks, much like then Pittsburgh Steelers back-up quarterback Omar Jacobs.
- LSU linebacker Cameron Vaughn's name is reversed in the game; he appears as Vaughn Cameron.
- Former Olympic skier and part of the draft class Jeremy Bloom's height is 6'7", nearly a foot taller than in reality.
