So there are two Hard Knocks shows now?

I felt like one was more than enough.

Well, one is focusing on the offseason (featuring the Giants), and one is featuring training camp.   I think that there is enough meat on that bone that the split should work.

If I was breaking in a new #1 draft pick at QB I don't think I'd want the addition stress of having cameras all around.  I'd want camp to be as normal as possible so he he could get settled n and start forming his 'becoming a pro' routines without the distraction.
I'd rather be a disappointed optimist than a vindicated pessimist. 

Not slowing my roll

Fair enough. Although keep in mind that most teams now do their own version of Hard Knocks, so there is now a ton of this type of content out there whether your team is on the actual Hard Knocks or not.

I am glad the Giants are on Hard Knocks, especially in this new format. Should be interesting and entertaining.

I think these new players love the spot light

Caleb Williams has been a polarizing figure on this board. It will be interesting to get some more insight into his personality and makeup.

Personally, I'm glad the Giants are not the featured team for the pre-season. It's been like a badge of honor, historically, as this show used to be a "look at me" love-fest" for Jerry's boys, for example.

It stinks that Goodell is now "forcing" teams to appear on the show. So, the Giants compromised and broke ground this year for the first "off-season" version, which is tied to their 100th anniversary. But they still remain one of a few who haven't been featured on the legacy show.

Peace!

Caleb loves the spotlight. He won't mind, but they're a team unlike that has been so Bears for years.

Makes sense with additions, heightened expectations
