Has anyone been watching Hardknocks Houston Texans Training Camp on HBO?

Fun show. Obrien is entertaining and some of the players are beasts. It's amazing how hard they work themselves. I imagine the players like Obrien a lot. He seems to have a great rapport with the team.
 
O' Brien is one hell of a coach and I'm confident that he'll have the Texans in Super Bowl contention in another year or two.

One of the things I find amusing is how profane Obie is. I knew Obie let a few expletives fly when he was coaching PSU, but was it as common as displayed on Hard Knocks?

The Texans in the SB? With who at QB, Hoyer or Mallet?

Considering he won 9 games with Ryan Fitzpatrick its possible. Add the fact they blew leads to Indy and Pittsburgh and only had one double digit defat what he did last year was pretty amazing.

Having a beast D is good too.
 
Yes I have been watching it. My thoughts always go to Charlie Fisher, poor guy. I do find it rather entertaining, and for the most part, you get a chance to really see the speed of the game.

Isn't it obvious? In two years they will have Hack! :)
 
This is the first time I've watched the Hard Knocks series. It is awesome. O'Brien seems to have a great rapport with that group. How great are Wilfork and Watt? Entertaining duo. Thank God it's football season.
 
Wilfork certainly does not look like he is busting tail in practice. Watt is a beast and Cushing is a friggin maniac!

JJ Watt is easily the best player in football right now. If I had to start a team I would take him first and it wouldn't be close. The guy does it all.

He is one of the most amazing athletes I have ever watched play any sport.

O'Brien is great and so dry but funny in his way. If he doesn't succeed in big ways I will be shocked. It's not a Steve Spurrier or Petrino situation. He was made to be an NFL head coach. He is entertaining but you just know he was pissed that he had to do the show. They had no choice but to do it due to the contract the NFL has with HBO.

Before people really began to get to know him the Tom Brady situation basically had people in an uproar. Like Brady later talked about that was one guy who get away with it.
