EA's dustin' off the coaching chair for football fans with their NFL Head Coach game for PC, PS2 and Xbox. This new game puts you in control of everything for an entire football team from the hiring and firing to the training and game plays. You might not be able to put your fave team in pink bunny uniforms, but you can play this game for free with EA's game demo. Here's the 411 on the game and how to try it out!

You're the Boss with EA Sports' NFL Head Coach

You kick off EA's NFL Head Coach by building a coach for your fave team. Once you're in command of a team you draft players, put them through training and get ready to play. When it's game time you pick plays and bark orders like a real coach, right down to hollering at the butterfingered receiver who missed an easy catch. You don't get to control the players during the game, and all the coach-stuff can be intense unless you're a hardcore sports fan, but it's great for football maniacs!
