Behind the Scenes With Matt Ryan's Gillette Fusion Commercial

Matt Ryan, the Falcons' starting quarterback, played collegiately at Boston College. Sunday, he returned to New England to play in Gillette Stadium against the Patriots in the Atlanta's first outdoor game of the year (including preseason). And while that is technically true, Ryan has had some experience with the elements and fake Patriots when he filmed this spot for Gillette Fusion razors.

The commercial didn't involve paint cans or leather sports jackets, but the after-the-jump YouTube provides a behind-the-scenes look at how to create an indoor Gillette Stadium (it bears a striking resemblance to the stadium in the opening sequence of The Last Boy Scout), which should no doubt come in handy for Pats fans now back on the bandwagon after yesterday's win. It'll make a lovely addition to the miniature Fenway Park many of them have already erected in their back yards.

WHAT IS
BACK PORCH?

The easy answer:
Back Porch exists because FanHouse doesn't have a basement for its bloggers. The bigger picture? BP covers sports news that's funny, off-beat and controversial. In short, it's the other side of sports, covered with an edge. Enjoy.
