Denis Leary as the coach.

Looks solid - glad they got to use the real teams and not generic garbage.

If he hadn't of died in that tornado, I bet he would have picked his adopted son at #1 given the chance.

Looks like a complete POS movie.

Just from the trailer it felt like every word spoken by Costner was from a movie script. Isn't the objective of acting the opposite of that.

Completely unnatural. Really enjoyed the ridiculousness of the coach and the owner as well. I can already tell that the movie will be abosuletely nothing like what actually takes place in a sports organization.

Did some hack, who knows nothing about sports and/or business, watch Moneyball and decide that she would write the same movie for an NFL team?

Guess I should have said felt forced/fake instead

I understand it is from a script, but it should not feel that way. It should sound natural and he does not from that trailer.

I think it looks pretty good.

Not something I will rush to see or feel like I need to see in theaters though.

Yeah the ridiculousness is a bit concerning. Then again after some of the stuff Snyder, Jones, and so on do, it might not be that far fetched lol.

I won't go see it in theaters, but it looks good enough to be a Friday evening rental for me.

On that note it might be fun to watch and rip it to shreds on this

I'm a huge NFL draft junkie and I'll definitely see this and pretend it's like real life.
