I saw the trailer last weekend and was underwhelmed.  Got me thinking though if I would be pumped up as a Browns fan or if I would like the story to use a fictional Panther team instead.  

 

Anyone else heard anything about the movie?  Seems quiet on talk radio about it also, I would think they would be talking it up.

I am not a Kevin Costner fan.   The plot:  Without having read or seen anything about it---A losing team, a losing coach and a GM struggle to not only save the franchise from losing, but from moving.  It is a team beloved by the blue-collar Dawg Pound fans, but one that has failed miserably.  And little Timmy's dying wish is, if he can't get that kidney transplant, for the Browns to hoist the Lombardi. Kevin Costner plays a wheelin' and dealin' GM, standing on his last leg with his back against the wall, as he navigates through the draft like Blackbeard around the outer banks.  And Like Blackbeard, Costner is an unpopular Swashbuckler, a free-spirited trend setter, working against the grain and all of humanity until his values are realized.  No treasure chest, but he manages to dig a Lombardi from the sand of doubt--a trophy buried by naysayers and skeptics long ago.  And Timmy gets that kidney transplant during halftime of the Super Bowl, where the Browns beat the Seahawks on an incredible play by Costner's controversial #1 draft pick.

      a look at our 19 udfas

      I tend to look at all of these guys and wonder how committed they are to doing special teams? It's a big deal when you're fighting for roster spots. And we need massive refreshes to all phases of the special teams game. And the idea that four or five of these players could see rotational use outside of special teams would be a win. This team has accumulated quite a bit of dead wood over the last five years and its time to take an axe to some of it. These new fellows have a shot to benefit from that if they can really push. That being said, wow that receivers room is crowded right now. I'm not sure if I was a vet player with more than 2 years experience other than Adam Thielen if I'd be too sure of my future here. Tet is guaranteed a spot, Coker earned his for sure and they aren't done with XL developing yet. That's only two to three spots left for the entire room. It's going to be very competitive and better for Bryce's future, too. Safety and linebacker are the opportunity spots here this season. There's room for the right guy and we may see a starter eventually from one of these UDFAs, either by merit or injury.

      Aho and Jarvis just gripping it too tight right now. Relax, play their 200 ft game and the shots will start to find the net. Freddie has been excellent and welcome back Mista Svechnikov. Burns.....well, thank goodness for Slavin.
