Only 4 teams were eligible, Bears, Jets, Commanders and Saints.

Could still be the in season team, though. I’m not sure what the qualifications are for that. 

As I understand it, it's more accurate to say that only these four teams could be forced to do it (as these are the teams that have failed to make the playoffs in the previous two seasons, don't have a first-year head coach, and haven't been on Hard Knocks in the previous 10 years). Anyone can volunteer - but there's literally no team in the NFL that actually wants to (and for good reason).

Honestly, the Jets were the obvious pick and the fact that the organization is complaining about it brings me joy.

I feel like teams shouldn’t be able to repeat on hard knocks until other eligible teams for that year go on. But this jets team is going to be very entertaining so I’ll watch it anyway.

That’s probably why they have the 10 year rule in place. It wasn’t like the Jets were just on.

You don't think 13 years is enough of a buffer between a team getting reselected?

I’m mostly butthurt the bears opted out in what would’ve been a good year so I’m disguising it as being disgruntled about how hard knocks does it even though I don’t really care who’s on it

Huh, if I was a Bears fan I'd be relieved right now.

While it may be entertaining to see your team on it (the only time I actually watched it was when the Dolphins were the host in 2012), a team being on Hard Knocks can only end up hurting them (which is why no one wants to do it anymore).
