Top 10 Greatest Football Movies Ever Made


Rush23

yea, i didnt think friday night lights was all that great. idk why people think it is so good.

Maybe because the book was amazing; seriously, I think that has something to do with it. It's like people mentally equate the two, even though FNL was, well, deficient.

But what's everyone got against "The Blind Side"?

But what's everyone got against "The Blind Side"?

I haven't seen it but if I had to guess it is because my wife liked it which means it is a touchy, feel good story, and a woman is one of the main characters right?

A touchy, feel good, boarderline chick flick that stars a woman is not going to rate high for most men in the world of sports movies. At least not many would admit to it.

the blind side is one of the best football movies ive ever seen. it doesnt have football scenes like remember the titans or friday night lights, but it is based on a true story about a kid that now plays in the NFL. thats football enough for me.

    • I’m pretty sure we did end up getting the first in that drive, but I don’t remember. It was obviously a catch the ball didn’t move 
    • While I don't think NFL games are fully rigged, it's certainly closer to a scripted outcome than we all think. The NFL by their own admission in court is not a fair and balanced sporting event. It is a managed entertainment product, a "spectacle" as they've put it, that now has sports betting as a huge financial pillar of their business model. It's ridicuously naive to still think the NFL isn't using referees to manage the games towards certain outcomes, using "replays in the booth" and overturning calls, choosing to overlook penalties at critical moments and calling questionable and sometimes phantom game changing penalties at other critical junctures of games. The NFL has always done this going as far back as the '60s, and they were investigated by the FBI in the '70s which found a large number of ownership groups had ties to the mob. So when the overwhelming majority of the moneyline bets were on the Panthers vs the Saints last week, and suddenly we see some strange and ticky tack penalties we've rarely seen called on the Panthers all year, I just know there's more going on behind the scenes. And suddenly next week, the Panthers will probably be nudged to a win, to keep the NFC South race interesting, as I see the Bucs are the favorite as of now and most moneyline bets will trend towards the Bucs until during the game when the Bucs are leading heading into the 4th quarter, and the Panthers are nudged to a win. At least, that's what the NFL and Vegas probably want to happen. 
    • Taylor Moton also slipped and missed his block entirely  The oline”s performance was less than stellar in the 4th qtr
