I'll set aside the Chiefs because I have an obvious bias, but if I could watch a football biopic, I'd be interested in some era/team that I don't know much about. Maybe something like the 1950s Rams teams that were such prolific scorers, or the Purple People Eaters line in Minnesota. The Rams may have been the first team west of the Mississippi if I remember right, which provides a great backdrop of societal change. Or go back to the really early days to learn about the players who formed some of those really early teams like the Dayton Triangles. Oh, or pick an interesting game like the Sneaker Game or that championship game that was played on a short field indoors in the 1930s.

Yeah, that's what I want. I want a movie about the 1932 NFL championship game. That game had it all: great iconic players, the oddities of a young sport, and an interesting setting during the Depression. You could really build a great movie around that game. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1932_NFL_Playoff_Game

We should crowdsource a movie about the 1932 championship game. I think it would be a blockbuster.

Ick. I loathed Madden and Davis and can count on one hand the number of movies Cage has been in that I've liked. Hard pass.

Nic Cage is the best actor of a generation.

Perfect choice.

His 23,453rd movie and it will be a good one.

Unhinged Nic Cage is the absolute best Nic Cage.

Thankfully that’s nearly every movie.

What an epic story this is.

First, you've got a 1932 setting in Chicago as we're sliding into the worst year of the Depression and prohibition is on its last legs. The NFL was still young and in a fight for survival.

Then, you end up with a tie for the league championship so it's decided to have a one-game "playoff" for the championship, which effectively is the NFL's first-ever postseason game. It's assembled hastily, which means that ...

the Portsmouth Spartans' best player and only Hall of Famer, Dutch Clark, cannot get the day off from his day job as a basketball coach, so he has to miss the game. That's a great side plot. By the way, Clark was both the team's quarterback and top running back.

Now a blizzard comes to town. The NFL can't afford to lose paying fans, so they make a quick decision to move the game indoors to a hockey rink that has been covered in dirt. The game is played the day after a circus performs, so you have elephant manure in the turf, which is fun comic relief.

Because the game is being played on a short field, a number of on-the-fly adjustments have to be made, including not allowing field goals and adjusting the line of scrimmage constantly to mimic a 100-yard field.

On the Bears' side of the field, you've got the legends of an old Red Grange, the league's fading superstar, and a rising young star in Bronko Nagurski. That's a classic sports movie trope. Team owner George Halas is now the coach after retiring as a player the year before, and other Hall of Famers are on the roster.

The game's only score is a controversial passing touchdown that led to a major rules change the following year.

The movie practically writes itself. If you want a screenplay to pitch to the studios, let me know.

He was born.

He coached.

He announced games.

If you're just going for likeness, then you probably go with Eric Stone Street based on his Randy Reid persona
