Last Guy on the Bench Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 Ha ha. I really enjoyed that (a sign of draft addiction - another sign is I've watched that terrible movie twice). Telesco is the dude. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Jack Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 He watched the movie like I watch the medical dramas my wife watches, looking at things in the background and saying "oh, that would never happen in real life." 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it really broke the immersion for me when Telesco used defibrillators on someone whose heart was already stopped. Everyone knows defibs are for shocking an irregular heartbeat back into rhythm, not restart a stopped one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Brown Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 Can't wait for the sequel where Callahan becomes a HOFer while Mack and Jennings are massive busts since it's the Browns. Why didn't they have the guy who directed Moneyball do this movie? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsfaninChicago Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 Never watched it but definitely pure fiction if the Browns had a good draft. Definitely would have watched it if they had made Buffalo the main character team though which under Brandon would have been just as much pure fiction.

I thought them drafting a RB in the first round was the most egregious plot line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Originally Buffalo was supposed to be the main character team. I believe they opted against it because it would have made us look foolish based on the storyline. I don’t remember exactly. But it was talked about when the movie came out. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFanForever19 Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 (edited) I'd really like someone to do another NFL Draft movie and do it more accurately to the reality this time. Since when is 2 1st's and a 3rd to acquire the #1 Pick in the Draft during a year that has a Franchise QB in the pool something you balk at?

Costner contacted Russ Brandon about a trade. It was about 30 seconds of Bills game in that movie. Brandon looked like a tool. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe NY didn't offer them the tax incentives that Ohio did, so they changed the team. https://www.sbnation.com/nfl/2013/3/6/4070486/nfl-draft-movie-kevin-costner-bills-browns Edited April 28, 2022 by DasNootz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4merper4mer Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 They left off the most ridiculous part where Jax traded the number 6 overall for 2 2nd rounders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s been more shot in Buffalo in previous years tho point to Buffalo actually spending some tax incentives to do it. I just think it looked bad for us and that’s why they nixxed it. Just my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
