Saints Are Frontrunners For This Year's 'Hard Knocks'?

Derick E. Hingle-USA TODAY Sports

HBO's "Hard Knocks" is getting ready to select their team for next season. According to a report from Pro Football Talk, they're leaning towards the New Orleans Saints...

quote:
Per a league source, the Saints are bracing for the possibility of the league tapping them on the shoulder and directing them to be the subject of the annual Hard Knocks series.

The Saints are one of seven teams that can be forced to do it, under criteria the league developed several years ago. Only teams that: (1) have a new coach; (2) have been to the postseason in either of the last two years; or (3) have served as the Hard Knocks subject within the last 10 years can say no. This year, the teams that can’t decline are the Saints, Bills, Bears, Jaguars, Raiders, Chargers, and Rams.

Would you like to see this happen?

Need to add a 4th criteria: (4) is in a city that has been devastated by a natural disaster within the last 12 years and is still healing. Hope they only keep the cameras rolling on the vanilla stuff.
