Dallas Cowboys? You mean season 4? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandyMossIsBoss Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 This is one of the first Hard Knocks in ages, maybe ever, that I am actually excited for. I always watch because it's so well done by the NFL and HBO, but usually it's middle of the pack teams that nobody really cares about. The Browns are bad, sure, but they are arguably one of the 5 most talked about teams year in and year out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turtle28 Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 Hopefully Mayfield and Gordon don’t get busted for off the field issues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TENINCH Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 These shows are sad. HBO does a great job hyping the team up and making their fans feel good about the upcoming season. Then the team sucks or misses the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope for CLE fans that Gordon has finally gotten over his substance abuse issues and that Mayfield - while cocky - doesn’t turn out to have off the field issues like Manziel. I have family and friends in Ohio, a lot are CLE fans and I’d like to see that franchise turn around and be relevant again. My grandfather and a friend I used to work with were the biggest Browns fans. Sadly, they both passed away and never saw the Browns get to a super bowl, let alone win one.

I thought Tampa Bay was pretty good last year with Jameis and all the personalities on that team but I agree this years should be a good one.

I, too, scoffed at the idea when it first started and it took me a few years to take it serious enough to get into watching it, but when I did(thanks to Rex Ryan), I wasn't disappointed and was pleasantly surprised at how well it was done and how much they really showed(which was my main concern to begin with because I was afraid that not many coaches were going to be willing to show too much on TV out of fear of other teams using it to their advantage and understandably so). You get a decent inside look into the staff and players and their personalities. The day-to-day operations. And all of this is mixed with both real comedy and drama all into one. You get to see how much pressure there really is on players come cut time on whether or not they make the 53 man roster or, like last year, you get see Jeff Fisher talk about not being a 7-9 or 8-8 team all because Tavon walked out of practice (what was golden).
