Michael Oher doesn't like 'The Blind Side,' but Panthers teammates love movie, and him

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Nobody in the Carolina Panthers' locker room is a bigger fan of left tackle Michael Oher than right tackle Mike Remmers.

Not just Oher, the teammate who will defend quarterback Cam Newton's blind side from Dwight Freeney in Sunday's NFC Championship Game against Arizona.

Oher, the movie character.

Remmers likes the 2009 Hollywood blockbuster "The Blind Side" so much that when the Panthers acquired Oher, the person the movie was based on, Remmers wouldn't give up No. 74.

So Oher, a former first-round pick and Super Bowl champion with Baltimore who wore No.
