Drake, tired of being embarrassed by Josh every time he talks to someone, wants him to try out for the football team and be cool. Much to Drake's disgust, Josh becomes equipment manager for the team. When Josh offers to bake brownies for the team, Megan puts flower dirt inside the batter. The team's quarterback gets so sick from the brownies that Josh, thanks to Drake, ends up taking his place for the upcoming game. Josh, worried that he will get mauled by the opposing team, wants to drop out, but Drake has an idea. They hire Zeke Braxton, the school's janitor, who used to be a pro football player until a head injury ruined his career and memory, to stand in for Josh for $10,000. On game night, Braxton get mangled by the opposing team but also gets his memory back. Without a quarterback, Coach Davis must forfeit the game. Josh, who doesn't want to let the team and school down, decides to play for real. Belleview wins the game, and Josh gets to keep the winning football as well.
