Marketing[]
The first poster and trailer for the film were released on December 23, 2013.
When the idea for the movie was first made public, the movie was to be centered around the Buffalo Bills instead of the Cleveland Browns but the studio changed it to the Browns because of cheaper production costs in Ohio.
