Under standards the NFL passed last year, the Bills, Bears, Cardinals, Giants, Jaguars, Raiders, Rams, and Steelers can be compelled to do the show.

WTF!?

Got to think they are going to take the chance to get a team that wouldn't normslly agree.
Bears, Giants and Steelers would get huge tv ratings

It has been this way since the last CBA I believe. IF you do not meet the criteria for exemption the League can pick who has to do it.


"t’s highly unlikely that there will ever be a season in which every single team is exempt from being required to do Hard Knocks, but theoretically, it is possible for all 32 teams to meet one of the three exemptions. The exemptions are:
1. Teams that have appeared on Hard Knocks in the last 10 years.
2. Teams with new head coaches.
3. Teams that have made the playoffs in either of the last two years."

Most teams will be exempt from Hard Knocks requirement | ProFootballTalk

#3 excludes us from the 2014 and 2015 seasons.
