From Puck, Puck writes, Kevin, I'm with Stan on this, ride it out with Mariota, sign them, and then have a legit competition entering 2026.

Good morning, everybody. That HBO Hard Knocks, NFC East, Episode 1, was really good.

It's much better in the regular season than it is in the summer.

I've gotten used to, actually, I got used to watching Hard Knocks for a long period of time over the summer,

and then over the last few years, I've checked out.

I think it's kind of boring. It's the same thing. the last few years, I've checked out. I think it's

kind of boring. It's the same thing. You know, if there's an interesting storyline with the Jets a couple of summers ago and Aaron Rogers, et cetera, but I haven't watched it a lot. And I'm wondering, Max, was last year the first year they did the in-season in division with the AFC North? Yes, it was. It was the first time that they were doing it.

Yeah, I watched a couple of those first time that they were doing it.

Yeah, I watched a couple of those, and I thought they were good.

Hard Knocks does an in-season now for the second straight year,

and they're focusing on the NFC East.

Hour-long episode last night, I guess they'll take it to the end of the regular season.

Is that what they do?

Yeah. Not exactly sure. But it's, it's well done. It's well produced. I actually was reading a

story that Tom Shad, I think, wrote for the Washington Post that the producer of this

hard knocks in season is actually a skins fan.

He's from here, grew up in Reston.

But it was well done.

There was some really good Dan Quinn, really good stuff during practice last week

leading into the Denver game.
