I think the best part of hard knocks is watching fans fall in love with a fringe player live (vet or otherwise) and seeing them not make the cut. Because no matter what we're shown no matter how much we love them the NFL comes down to a numbers game and they have to make hard decisions daily. I don't love it for what it does to them but I love it due to the harsh reality of the game being shown that otherwise would've just been a cut/sign tracker on a slow ESPN day for the rest of us. It brings a piece of humanity back to the sport we often lose because of what I just described.

Daboll was phenomenal with his QB questions in that room! You could see was enjoying every second of those talks.

The off-season version of HardKnocks is excellent. I've heard some sports folks ask why people would want to watch. It's fricken' riveting. Especially the player meetings with the grease board. I'm like, these recruits have to know their stuff. I was impressed.

Hard Knocks & The NY Giants Are Giving Us Tremendous Access "Backstage Pass" 👀 That Is So Informative & Entertaining. As A Fan Im Surprised & Loving Evey Second Of It!

One of the parts I found most interesting was the discussion between the team communications director and the gm, a little role-playing with the mock questions for the national media press conference

Your audio is off

"Let's go eat a goddamn snack!" is still the funniest thing I've ever seen on Hard Knocks.

I loved it. Especially when Daboll had the players on the board

Oh my god that guy on Reddit is right, there's a high pitched noise in every video

I've been saying that Mahomes wouldn't do crap with that line last year. It's nice to finally hear someone on msm saying that.

Rich Eisen is the best. No one doing it better.

Someone has to get the quote right. He said in one game, there were 3 PRACTICE squad guys, Patrick Mahomes wouldn’t be able to win with that. While acknowledging the line needed upgrading he wasn’t referring to the regular starters in that quote.

I was worried because the first episode felt pretty underwhelming, but man the second episode was one of the best hard knocks that I can ever remember. So good!

@softjones3128

You were worried?

The Colts have a really good self-made Hard Knocks-type of series every year. Worth seeking out.

It showed you why giants wanted to trade up and draft Drake Maye. Dude knows his football. Yes different terminology from college to NFL. But you can tell Maye and Daboll had the same football brain.

When dabol asked Jayden Daniels a question and his answer was “Throw a touchdown” I was glad my patriots got Drake maye absolute steal at #3

Between the Hard Knocks new episode and Receiver, there was a lot of content to watch yesterday...

I think things worked out about as well as they could. It appears that Barkley made his numbers clear to the Giants and they were unwilling to pay that much, the guaranteed money likely being the hang up. Schoen gave Barkley some respect by inviting him to test the market without putting the tag on him and as occurs in many of these situations, the player ends up leaving for likely less than he was demanding from his original team but slightly more than they were offering. Over time Barkley will probably realize that but right for now I’m happy he got the guaranteed money he wanted and that the Giants aren’t paying top of the market for a RB. The Giants can’t afford that luxury yet. Also, Rich I think the info you got at the combine was right. But the Giants couldn't trade up for the QB they wanted so they've got no choice but to suck it up and hope Jones can be a decent bridge QB for them. I doubt they believe he's the long term answer. The structure of his deal allows them to reset at QB shortly.

Hmmm...win a Super Bowl ring and play with the 1A All-Pro QB or win 4-6 games with some combination of Danny DBag, Tommy Devito and whatever stiff backup they get in FA.

These 2 episodes has shown us how the NYG are a TRAINWRECK! but at least they got the 6th pick right.

I wanna see the Dabol run the 40!! And the Giants are fools for letting saquon go to Philly

Jayden Daniels was not good on the board. Come on Rich you’re better than that

This fills the dead period, but there is nothing illuminating. It was sad hearing Saquon on the phone being told they didnt want to make an offer. Knowing that they vastly overpaid DJ, Burns, and Singletary. But if they didnt want to pay him after 2022, they weren't going to pay him this year. Even though the line was the 2nd worst in NFL history. Saquon should have close to 2k all purpose yds this yr. Eagles know how to run block and Hurts loves to check it down.

$40 million isn't a team friendly deal when it's Danny Dimes cuz he's a bum...😂

Daniel Useless ONLY had 165 yds PPG against EVERYONE else not named the Minnesota Vikings. After those 2 games his average shot up to ONLY 185 yds PPG. They gave one of the WORST QBs in the league $160M with a $36M signing bonus. btw the OL was YOUR fault NO ONE else's. Enjoy your last season as the GM of the NY GIANTS

Awful contract? $40 million a year for a quarterback is the floor.

From a non giants fan perspective this season has made them look very dumb. They completely dropped the ball with Barkley especially with that lame Franchise legend schlock. Heres an idea Giants how about you tell em your gonna build a Super Bowl Winner. And im stunned that any of those coaches or people in the front office for the Giants even still have a job. Daniel Jones is not a good enough player to even be on the bench. I wouldnt trust Daniel Jones to flip a feaking hamburger. The fact you can say the Jets are the best run New York Nfl team is wild. But not surprising at this point.

As a giants fan ive just accepted the fact this team will be below 500 football again. Shoen is terrible, jones sucks, and without barkley we are screwed.....

Man i didnt realize the amounts of cope Giants fans have. They refuse to acknowledge not only does their team suck but the coaching and front office as well. No wonder they wont be relevant for another 20 years.
