ESPN.com that he believes the movie, which profiles his journey from a homeless teen to an eventual first-round draft pick after his college days in Oxford, has had a negative effect on his NFL career.

"I'm not trying to prove anything,'' Oher told ESPN's David Newton. "People look at me, and they take things away from me because of a movie. They don't really see the skills and the kind of player I am. That's why I get downgraded so much, because of something off the field.

Yeah it has nothing to do with how shitty your play is on the field, Mike.

Sounds like Michael Oher has a problem with personal accountability. That gets you every time.

I don't think NFL coaches give two shits about a shitty movie. The problem is that they actually do see the player he is.

I'm not defending his excuses at all, but I'd hate a movie that made me look like a retarded giant who hoarded popcorn to somehow maintain his massive frame, too. I'm not going to reward Sandra Bullock for kidnapping black kids for the benefit of Ole Miss.

It's a pretty terrible movie. Not that it's an excuse for his bad play.

Michael's problem is 100% The Blindside.















Protecting it, that is.

They make him look like he is an actual retard and they make it look like a homemaker knows more about coaching football than Hugh Freeze. I don't blame either of them for being pissed

Spending some time under the Touhy's roof seems to do this to people.

I bet he's been heckled a million times from fans, teammates, and opposing players about the movie. shite has probably worn him down psychologically.

I don't know too many people that would handle that kind of scrutiny well.
