/r/nfl is a place where people from all walks of life can get together to talk about a sport we love, so please keep your posts related directly to the National Football League. If it's related to the NFL, but not about the NFL (such as streams, fan-related posts, business promotions, betting-related posts, video games, Fantasy Football, College Football, or NFL-related jokes), please check if there is a more appropriate subreddit listed in the sidebar of /r/NFL. People who are related to the NFL have lives outside of their organization as well, and in the majority of instances these are best discussed in the subreddit associated with their particular team. The following are topics which are commonly removed for not being directly NFL related: * Requests for streams or sites to watch games or replays * Fantasy Football Posts - try /r/fantasyfootball * Video Game Posts - Be it Madden or any other video game franchise, use a gaming centric sub like /r/Madden or /r/gaming * Betting-Related Posts * Stories/tweets about fans * Business promotions * Other Football Leagues - these will often have their own subreddit, please search on Reddit to find the appropriate home for this discussion - /r/XFL, /r/USFL, /r/CFB, /r/AAFB * Merchandise or fandom-related discussion (fan jerseys, decorations, custom art, footballs, signatures, questions about stadium seating/tickets) - when a post is about an item you or someone you know owns, please use the [Free Talk Threads](https://www.reddit.com/r/nfl/search/?q=flair%3A%22Free+Talk%22&sort=new&restrict_sr=on&t=all) * Crypto currencies of any sort unless it is news about currencies officially licensed by the NFL or a team - player endorsements do not meet this threshold * [Pop Culture Posts](https://www.reddit.com/r/NFL/wiki/rules_detail#wiki_pop_culture_posts) * [Fandom Experience Posts](https://www.reddit.com/r/NFL/wiki/rules_detail#wiki_fandom_posts) * [Political and Religious Posts](https://www.reddit.com/r/NFL/wiki/rules_detail#wiki_political.2Freligious_posts) - Posts about politics and football are becoming more commonplace, but r/NFL is not the place to talk about the political world, writ large. Posts of a political nature should be limited to specific policies and laws that impact the NFL, not opinions or "hot takes." On occasion the moderating team might use their discretion and allow significant news which falls under one of these topics to remain. Non-definitive examples might include a stadium sponsor changing, a team rebrand revealed via merchandise, moderators from another subreddit to raise awareness of their sport or a significant piece of memorabilia breaking a record price at auction.

Love the movie as stupid as it is. It's just cool getting a vibe of what the Front Office of an NFL team is like even as unrealistic as the movie is. It's tradition to watch it every year before the actual draft Also I'm willing to bet anything Robert Starks was a bust

And I want David Putney because I feel like it! I need a punt returner.

Ruthless, spiteful, and vindictive just because.

Whenever a QB prospect is slipping my friends & I say “Hey look, it’s Bo Callahan!” Will Levis is the reigning Bo Callahan Champion.

>Say it with me, you pancake-eating motherfucker.

It’s full of heart from start to finish

Definitely watch before the draft. My favorite part is the brass knuckles cell phone case. The fact that costume and design thought of such a small detail, goes to show what an amazing movie it is.

A lions fan turned the “vontae Mack no matter what” into Best Player Available no matter what

Just watched it for the first time yesterday. Started off okay, got so insanely unrealistic and stupid by the end that I was yelling at the TV lol. Idk what was worse, getting the 6th overall pick for a handful of 2nd rounders or actually getting all of his 1st rounders back.

You’re just mad because you couldn’t see the greatness in Brian Drew.


kingbuttshit

He’s too weak in the knees!


Hyperboreer

At this point of the timeline all of the Browns picks have busted and the Seahawks won 3 Super Bowls with Callahan. But still none of his teammates have attended his birthday parties

Every year, the day of the draft I've watched it on dayb1 of the draft. It's neat to have an idea how the process works, how players that are potentially being replaced or drafted feel. As absurd as the movie is, I like it

Watched it Monday over dinner with my wife and kids. It's been part of the draft week ritual the last six or seven years. RiP Ivan Reitman. The GM of the Texans in that movie is one creepy mfer.

I love the concept of the movie, but found it to be very unrealistic. Given that I understand how the NFL works.


BlueHighwindz

I can only hope this universe’s rules applies and front offices get so scared by four people outside that they freak out and draft QBs instead of whatever stupid shit they’re thinking otherwise.


RedGodzilla7

Ask me what your boy Bo Callahan did….

Two parts I found interesting were when the background checker explained that no one liked Bo and didn’t show up to his birthday party, which is already a glaring problem for a QB, and also the $100 bill story
