Hard Knocks trailer

Looks great

I can't wait for this  
Ben in Tampa : 6/25/2024 12:17 pm : link
Setting it in the off season is infinitely more interesting to me than training camp or in-season.

Even though it will be highly edited I'm sure, just the smallest of peaks behind the curtain is very exciting.
wow a couple things in that trailer piquing my interest  
AJ23 : 6/25/2024 12:21 pm : link
most notably Schoen's conversation with Saquon toward the end
Can't

was presumably asking him to give them a chance to match whatever offer he got in FA.

i think this offseason hard knocks is going to be way more interesting than training camp.
This is such  
Dankbeerman : 6/25/2024 12:40 pm : link
a great platform to get behind the scenes on the offseason. Im stoked seeing this and the teaser with Bowen.

The Jones recovery being pushed and possible trying to paint Saquan as an antagonist. Wonder how much Giants control the narrative but either way sign me up
So NYG tried to get Saquon back

One thing to keep in mind about Hard Knocks  
Matt in SGS : 6/25/2024 12:59 pm : link
I was at the 100th event and Daboll and Schoen talked about it. Daboll said when he really wanted to get into detailed stuff that he didn't want the cameras to catch, he would play music loud on his phone because he knew it would mess up the audio and the copyright would force HBO to scrap it (pretty funny).

But the bigger thing was Schoen was asked if he had final editorial control, he said "yes, we do". So everything you see, the Giants want out there. If they want to bury Saquon and show they tried to negotiate and he left them to go to Philly, they are doing it for a reason.
I really hope

nobody's rooting for Saquon still.

So Saquon says Giants never made an offer  
nygiants16 : 6/25/2024 1:08 pm : link
but in the clip it sounds like Schoen asked if they would get a chance to match
Did Atlanta want to trade up for Nabers?  
Sean : 6/25/2024 1:13 pm : link
.
The thing I care about is what did atlanta offer  
GiantsFan84 : 6/25/2024 1:14 pm : link
The only thing them trying to bring saquon back would do is give me even less faith in this regime

Maybe they thought the Giants would take Penix?
I don’t care if they wanted nabers  
GiantsFan84 : 6/25/2024 1:20 pm : link
What did they offer? The giants had to expect odunze to be there when atlanta was originally set to pick. Is nabers better than odunze + picks?

There's no cancelation fee for these. Just subscribe for as long as it takes you to watch the show and then cancel it. You could probably find another streaming subscription to cancel while you're using Max, and then you'll be more or less cost neutral.

If it's any consolation, it wouldn't be any different under the old cable setup. If you didn't already have HBO, you'd have to subscribe to it for Hard Knocks. This isn't some new problem.

Schoen said that with the HBO camera right in his face. He definitely wanted people to think he wanted Saquon back.
This looks amazing!

Danny Kanell : 6/25/2024 2:32 pm : link
In a weird way, this looks more compelling than if it was the regular Hard Knocks Training Camp Series.

Cannot wait.

I'm somewhat joking. I pay for shit I forgot about for a while. I might still have an HBO subscription.
This looks Awesome!  
Daniel in Kentucky : 6/25/2024 3:45 pm : link
Can't wait to see this!
FYI
The five-part original series debuts TUESDAY, JULY 2 at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT on HBO and will be available to stream on Max with new episodes debuting subsequent Tuesdays through July 30.

The usual voice of reason.

My memory may be off, but I think when I was originally told this deal may be coming down the pipe, two #2s were mentioned.

We also know this would be edited to try and create some drama. Regardless, interesting nugget about Saquon, and excited to watch this
Not mad at Saquon  
JoeyBigBlue : 6/25/2024 4:49 pm : link
We had two years to offer him 12 mil+ per season and we didn’t. Sometimes it’s best for all sides to move on.

Could have been that was the original demand of Carolina and the Giants wanted to see the price Burns wanted before agreeing to anything. If Burns suddenly would be had for $20M then the Giants might have been willing to give up a higher second pick than a 5th as an example.

Probably why they agreed to do it. PR move.

SFGFNCGiantsFan : 6/25/2024 8:26 pm : link
Saquon might be the most overrated Giant of the last decade plus. Yes, he was spectacular in '18, but he was often injured & even in '22-when he was great-he had some 'WTF?' moments.
A question about the Barkley saga:  
mittenedman : 6/25/2024 9:30 pm : link
Did Saquon give the Giants a chance to match?
LOL at all the grumps…  
Chris in Philly : 6/26/2024 1:36 am : link
who complained about this. What giants fan would not want to watch this?

Draft Talk  
Walnuts : 6/26/2024 12:10 pm : link
I'm most interested in the draft talk - hadn't heard the Falcons tried to trade up with us.

I wonder what (if anything) they'll show about the possible trade up with the Patriots. I imagine it's in the Giants best interest to downplay that.
When is this on HBO?
