I think it's a no-brainer HBO is going to pick the Bears. The only thing that will save them is if another team volunteers but I don't see that happening.
 
Well I would like to see the Broncos of those that are listed.
Payton completely changed that roster. Would be an interesting offseason. Others will be a bore or cliche'

Although you are probably correct.
Number one draft pick :blah:
 
Is there a word for being excited and annoyed at the same time?

Not year 1 I’m not. Maybe year 2. On paper the Bears got some good players but I’m not sold on the coaching.

Honestly I’m more relieved than anything that Fields is out of the north.

What makes a team eligible?

It’s something like haven’t made playoffs in two years, haven’t been selected to be on Hard Knocks in 10 years and can’t be the first year of a new coach.

Of course a team that isn’t eligible can volunteer to be on the show but hardly anyone does that as they don’t like the distraction.

I am excited to see the difference Shane Waldron makes. He got the absolute most out of Geno Smith and seemingly has to be an improvement over Getsy.

I am not 100% sold on Eberflus, but as much as I say that, I also think he deserves a little more credit than he gets. He turned that defense around on a dime last year. (Of course the addition of Sweat had plenty to do with that, but still...) The players seem to think he's legit, soo.

This will the year to tell, IMO. Can't blame Getsy or Fields(Plenty of blame to be doled out to both, particularly Fields, as he is a terrible QB)

If I were a Lions fan, I would absolutely want Fields in there over Williams. I know it throws a wrench in the D planning when the QB is the best athlete on the field, but that shit isn't sustainable and never has been. Every year that passes, his running will get less and less effective. I would MUCH rather have an actual QB.

Yeah we just could never seem to stop the guy from running all over us.

He definitely seemed to have your guys' number. Some of the few games where he almost looked like a legitimate QB.
 
No offense to Bears fans. If I were one I would be excited.

but this might be the worst Hard Knocks ever. :(

Only time I ever watched was the Lions season.

Really enjoyed it. Cuz I’m a Lions fan. I’d watch it every year, if it was my Lions they were following around.

Bears fans should enjoy it. Good timing for them imo.

Should be a good drama.

Probably be some crying in mom’s arms if there’s a bad practice. Painted finger nails. A woman (who’s father gave her all she has) on life support. And a Succession type plot where all her children position themselves to get most of what she has.
