Cleveland Browns A Candidate For Home Box Office's "Hard Knocks"
-
No this could work out really well. Think about the ratings when JM comes back out of rehab. one week, beats out the other QB's during the rest of the shows and then leads the Browns to the Playoffs.
Edit:
:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:Passing to Josh Gordon....

Revived this thread to handicap the options HBO has to "draft" a team...
Here are the eight NFL teams eligible for HBO's 'Hard Knocks' in 2017
- Cleveland Browns
- Baltimore Ravens
- Tennessee Titans
- Indianapolis Colts
- Philadelphia Eagles
- Chicago Bears
- New Orleans Saints
- Tampa Bay Buccaneers
A few initial thoughts...- TV market size would favor Bears and Iggles.
- Iggles have added interest in the form of Wentz.
- Titans have the "team-on-the-rise" look that's attractive.
- Browns have the owner looking to rekindle fan interest factor, one of the more charismatic HCs and a dynamic, cussing DC who links this coming and the prior season's shows.
I've got a bad feeling about this...
-
I'd forgotten they were on hard knocks last year - there's presumably a lot of video of Williams interacting with his players there. Might have to re-watch what was by far the least entertaining series of hard knocks I've seen.

Wouldn't say "a lot"...
I remember a clip a week or so of him cussing the shit out of his D room... and not much else.
But then we've already established the state of my short-term memory...

I hope it's the Browns' turn on HK. After a miserable *almost* winless season, full of jokes and ridicule, a look behind the curtain would be just what the organization needs...... If they look inept and disorganized, well then that's on them and they would deserve every ounce of criticism that followed.
However, if they look like they know what they're doing (my guess), then it might just help change the culture from outside the building and all across the country.

Can't argue with that reasoning.

I can... but I've got shit to do...
DB actually did raise some positive possibilities, but the one overriding thing might be Hue's resistance. This could well be his make or break season coming up. I could see him imploring Jimmah to not step up this year, but wait for 2018 after our trajectory changes.
Which brings us back to the "HBO draft"... Are we really that attractive compared to each of the other seven candidates?

Hue Jackson wants no part of Hard Knocks this year: 'OMG, I'm not interested in that' ...#Browns won't volunteer

2018 is the year after we follow up 1-15 with 7-9 including a couple big wins that gives us that "team on the rise" designation.

I'm down with that...

The Browns are the most promising contender.
The Browns own the number one overall selection in the draft. Potentially a new franchise QB... or an elite edge rusher... or a generational RB.
The Browns have a lot of charismatic young players.
Josh Gordon and Terrel Pryor. Plus Coleman.
The Browns also have the number twelve selection in the draft. That's two first round rookies to follow.
The Browns had the youngest roster in the NFL and only look to add to their lead with a bounty of draft picks to come.
The smart money is on the Browns to be the show. Draft Day was a killer movie. Hard Knocks is named after the Browns.

I'm with D Bone on this one. Plus I'd rather get it over with this year, when we aren't expected to make the playoffs, instead of next year or the next year etc. when we could possibly (hopefully) compete.
Go ahead and get the distraction over with now basically.

Changing direction is harder than continuing. Let's change in private and continue in public.
As for "aren't expected to"... give it a couple months for the drum beat to build and the one-year turnaround stories to start flying. Reasonableness is not the average Browns' fan's strongest trait.

That's for sure.

So where does the Josh Gordon situation stand now?

Probably in the JM one man rehab program.
We will see them reunited in the CFL Championship game most likely.
