Other professional football movies?


Ok I love football but I'm sick of all the high school and prison football movies crap. What are some other professional football movies. I don't really mind if there good or not as long as they are professional football!

I think Any Given Sunday is the best one, someone already mentioned it but you should start there.

How about "North Dallas Forty" ? Great movie!

Johnny Be Good. 1988. Overlooked... not a great movie, but decent if I recall correctly.

North Dallas Forty is easily the best Pro Football Movie.

The best 2 pro football movies by a mile are:

1. Brian's Song (true story)

2. North Dallas Forty.

"Brian's Song" was excellent, but was a made for TV movie. It may have been one of the best ever made for TV movies.
