Character mistake: At the scene at the dinner table where Pat and Tiffany meet, the prescription drug "Trazadone" is mispronounced with a long A as in "trayzadone." This a fairly common drug used for depression and as a sleep aid. Any nurse or pharmacist could tell you the correct pronunciation. Interestingly, the other lesser known drugs were pronounced correctly.
Character mistake: Robert DeNiro says that the Eagles beat the Seahawks 27-10. In a later scene, Jennifer Lawrence comments that the Eagles beat the Seahawks 14-7. Both scores were wrong, as the Eagles beat the Seahawks 26-7 that season.
Chosen answer: According to Wikipedia, excelsior is a Latin adjective meaning "higher" or "loftier", used in English as an interjection with a poetic meaning of "ever upward." The characters have a goal and are striving to achieve something lofty.
