TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

The trick used by the Washington Redskins of taping a $100 bill to the back of the playbook seemed to be inspired by an anecdote of JaMarcus Russell. His coaches in Oakland did not believe he was watching the game film and once purposely sent him home with blank DVDs to watch. He returned claiming he watched the video and liked the game plan, obviously lying. There was a similar story in the 1980s with Randall Cunningham.

The team Sonny trades for the top pick was originally supposed to be the New York Jets, but they dropped out of the movie at the last minute.

The movie originally centered around the Buffalo Bills instead of the Cleveland Browns, but the studio changed it to the Browns because the production costs in Ohio were cheaper.

The film was initially rated R by the MPAA, but Lionsgate appealed the rating and got a PG-13 rating without cuts. As a result, it is a very rare PG-13 film to use the term 'motherfucker'.

The actual 2014 NFL draft had a lot of similarities to the plot of the movie. The actual draft had a Heisman trophy winning quarterback falling in the draft, the Cleveland Browns making a pick that was questioned heavily, and the Browns making multiple trades. Jon Gruden even stated, "this is better than Draft Day!" on air during the actual draft.
