TecmoSuperJoe Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 I remember hearing a while ago that the Kurt Warner story was being developed for a movie, which seems to be the poster boy for the next "true story" NFL film. However I was wondering what else might be interesting for a general audience for the NFL. There was Concussion. I guess was thinking more along the lines of a romanticized feel-good story like a lot of sports films try to capitalize on. By the way I vote no on Tim Tebow.

patriotsheatyan Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Ray Lewis stabbing two guys. He could be played by Terry Crews. Good action but also a human element to it with Ray's speechs, and Crews has good comedic timing to add to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom cody Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Tom Brady; How if Drew Bledsoe didn't get injured in 2001 would Brady have gotten the chance to play and end up becoming the GOAT? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soko Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Warner is a good one. Brady has a Cinderella story as far as football goes, but no one will go see a Tom Brady movie, lol. Also not sure there’d be enough, let’s say “conflict”, for most of the movie. Yeah he was a 6th rounder that made the team as 4th QB, won the backup job, then won a SB. But then he won another one. And another one. Then he married a super model. Later winning two more trophies. Maybe Eli would be his nemesis, I don’t know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reginaldm9 Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 I want to watch a highlight reel of Andy Reid's best dinners. The third act can be him losing 40 pounds and still looking frumpy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dome Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Jimmy Graham was abused by other children in a group home for most of his childhood until he hit a growth spurt and got bigger than all of them. He was adopted by a woman who took him out of the group home and interested in basketball. Bet y’all didn’t know JG played BBall, huh? She made him improve his grades and pushed him to success academically as well as on the court. It actually feels quite Blindside-ish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fin156 Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Nathan Peterman seems like a good option. A young boy grows up with NFL aspirations. He goes to the school of his dreams in Tennessee only to get pushed out by a better player in Josh Dobbs. Transfers to Pittsburgh and still kind of does okay. Finally gets his shot at starting an NFL game and then proceeds to have arguably the worst half of any player ever in the history of the NFL. Cue ending credits. As much as I can't stand the guy, I would probably watch a Johnny Manziel movie on someone else's Netflix account. Not paying $15 to go to a theater for that garbage, though. On a serious note, I would honestly pay to watch Antonio Brown's story told in a movie. Not the best upbringing in Miami, constantly denied by schools whether it's due to academics/character and scouts only to become the best receiver in the league and one of the best role models for kids when it comes to work ethic. I would watch J.J. Watt's story. Former pizza delivery guy turned NFL legend. I think he's too much of a PR act sometimes but what he was able to facilitate for that city this year was genuinely amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DawgX Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 The past two seasons for the Browns would make for an excellent horror film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
