Football games only come on four days during the week so you have to have other options when the games go off. Netflix is home to some great shows that include the game of football for you to watch when there aren't any lives games on.
Here are five options below.
The League
If you play fantasy football you'll love this show as just as much as love your own fantasy team. It's about a group of friends who've known each other since high school competing in their own league for a trophy they call the "Shiva".
A plus to the show is that actual NFL players make cameo appearances.
Last Chance U
One of the best Netflix original series made thus far follows the season of East Mississippi Community College. Led by coach Buddy Stephens who recruits the most talented players who often have troubled past he gives them another chance ar making it. With this philosophy, EMCC has become a national powerhouse at the junior college level winning three national championships over a five-year span. Watch season one to see if they complete the three-peat.
Friday Night Tykes
it may only be peewee football but football is a religion in Texas no matter what your age is. These little kids are long away from a chance at the NFL but they play just as hard. They may be small and still developing their skills but they have the heart that it takes to play the game of football.
Blue Mountain State
After the first episode, you'll be thinking that you aren't at the right college. There are only two things that matter at Blue Mountain State football and the parties at the the Goat House. Thad Castle, Alex Moran and his best friend Sammy who becomes the Goats mascots are the stars of the show.
Friday Night Lights
The Friday Night Lights TV series is just as good as the film but neither are what the book is. It's set in Dillon, Texas and the Panthers are led by coach Eric Taylor. The team goes through all kinds of things and have to find a way to bounce back and come together as a team. Every year they are expected to win a state championship and if they don't the boosters let coach Taylor know about it.
