N/S Hard Knocks: Training Camp With The Detroit Lions (1 Viewer)

You might not want too see N.O on Hard Knocks. I remember something about each team thats been on there not making the playoffs that season after film shooting is done

Yeah I have seen that stat, I know it’s bad for our team that’s why I said selfishly lol. I still would love to see it. A tad less now that Sean is gone.

Sorry but are we supposed to care bc its Dan Campbell?

just having dan campbell on that show will make it worth watching.

also a member of the saints SB team... even though he didnt play.

I'm actually rooting for them this season. You have to start somewhere and I hope they beat the Vikings twice. Lastly, Dan Campbell is super entertaining, I see why he was highly sought after.

I have watched every season of hard knocks, I have always liked the behind the scenes look at a pro sports team. I don't mind the Lions, some good coaching staff members and a team without a lot of success, I hope they show improvement this year.

Jamaal Williams has been a gold spot for it. Dude has me a fan of his for a lot of reasons.

Eh, the Hard Knocks "curse" is a bit overblown.

Teams that made the playoffs after doing Hard Knocks...

• 2001 Ravens (10-6, won Wild Card, lost Divisional)
• 2009 Bengals (10-6, lost Wild Card)
• 2010 Jets (11-5, won Wild Card and Divisional, lost AFC Championship)
• 2013 Bengals (11-5, lost Wild Card)
• 2015 Texans (9-7, lost Wild Card)
• 2020 Rams (10-6, won Wild Card, lost Divisional)
• 2021 Cowboys (12-5, lost Wild Card)

Teams that missed the playoffs after doing Hard Knocks...

• 2002 Cowboys (5-11, fired HC after season))
• 2007 Chiefs (4-12)
• 2008 Cowboys (9-7, were 8-4 before losing 3 of their last 4)
• 2012 Dolphins (7-9)
• 2014 Falcons (6-10, fired HC after season)
• 2016 Rams (4-12, fired HC mid-season)
• 2017 Buccaneers (5-11)
• 2018 Browns (7-8-1, fired HC mid-season)
• 2019 Raiders (7-9, started 6-4 before losing 5 of their last 6)
• 2020 Chargers (7-9, fired HC after season)

As you can see, half the teams that missed the playoffs after participating on Hard Knocks ended up firing their HC either mid-season or after the conclusion of the season and without looking deeper, I'd wager those teams were more than likely equally bad the previous season or 2 before they did Hard Knocks.

He was also an assistant head coach in 2019 when we were robbed of another SB win.

2018 I mean.

All good

Have you watched it? The answer is yes. And Aaron Glenn, too. It's really good, and both those guys are eminently likeable. Best Hard Knocks in many years.

 

[NatureBoy]

Thoroughly entertained. This team believes in Campbell and his staff. Dan is a very vocal coach too, it takes talent, smarts and respect to get players to rally behind this kind of coach in 2022. Also a small chance to peak behind the NFL curtain. More often than not fans think they know, but they don't know. While it's redacted and likely orchestrated, you still get a peak at what happens in private settings, rather than guessing and pretending to know.

And teams that lose the last 3 games of the season don't go to the Super Bowl.
