...Army Man (brilliantly played, save for the cop-out deus ex machina, by Bruce Dern), Fonda gives one of the best performances of her rather spotty acting career. She is frustrated, repressed and lonely until she meets a crippled vet in an army hospital. That vet--played by Jon Voigt --turns her life around and brings himself to peace in the process.

When Foreman is not handling the ball, Tarkenton can also give it to two other solid young runners, Ed Marinaro and Brent McClanahan, or can look downfield for veteran Tight End Stu Voigt. Next to Foreman, Tarkenton's favorite target is Wide Receiver John Gilliam, who, after a brief spell in the World Football League, has returned to Minnesota with his sprinter's speed...
