even though we're responsible for a major part of the AFC's history you can move us to the NFC West so we can kick the shit out of the 49ers twice a year

No word when an announcement on who will be on Hard Knocks will be made, but last year the announcement was made on June 12 so an announcement could come in the next few weeks.

I'm thankful, every season Philly is not on this show!

The Buffalo Bills, with coach Rex Ryan and several high-profile additions this offseason, are appealing candidates for "Hard Knocks," the annual HBO series that chronicles a team's training camp.

However, the Bills aren't interested in participating, a team source confirmed Friday. General manager Doug Whaley previously told ESPN at the NFL owners meetings in March that neither he nor owners Terry and Kim Pegula were interested in doing the show.

The Bills cannot be forced to participate because they have a first-year coach.

A report Friday from ESPNCleveland.com stated that the Bills, Washington Redskins and Houston Texans were "potential participants" for the show.

Multiple sources told ESPN Redskins reporter John Keim that Washington was not interested in the show. ESPN Texans reporter Tania Ganguli tweeted Friday that the Texans are "favorites" to be featured on the show.

Looks like it will be the Texans.

Guess the Texans don't mind being on the show after all.

Big blow to the Broncos

Broncos Pro Bowl LT Ryan Clady tore his left ACL during practice Wednesday and is likely to miss the 2015 season, a league source told ESPN.

According to the Philadelphia Inquirer, Sam Bradford's surgically repaired left knee doesn't appear "remotely close" to full health.
It's our fourth Bradford post of the day. This is just reporter Jeff McLane's take, but he believes "the specter of (Mark) Sanchez under center (in Week 1) becomes more and more of a reality" every day that Bradford's rehab drags on. Neither Bradford nor coach Chip Kelly has attached a date to Bradford's return, though both are trying to project confidence that he'll be ready for training camp. McLane reports Bradford was "clearly favoring" his left leg in Thursday's practice. Bradford has the potential to be a fantasy bargain this season, but he needs to get his health in order over the next two months.

That's great!
I just figured Bradford wouldn't be playing until mid season. Any thing earlier is icing on the cake IMO.

lol wow Bradford trade looking worse and worse

That's like saying "as could any player...run for 2,000 yards". No, not everyone can get hurt like Bradford can.

Really a kicker could run for 2000 yards?

Not really the same thing.

And yes, anyone can most definitely get hurt like Bradford could.

Atlanta Falcons rookie linebacker Prince Shembo was arrested Friday and charged with killing his former girlfriend's dog, police said.

The incident occurred April 15 and the investigation was completed Thursday, Gwinnett County Police in Georgia said. Shembo was charged with felony aggravated cruelty to an animal.

I'm curious how the Falcons will handle this. Shembo previously was investigated but never charged for inappropriately touching a woman, with the woman committing suicide 2 weeks after the alleged incident.

http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/12...rged-dog-death

Edit: That didn't take long, Shembo has been waived by the Falcons. Shembo had already signed a contract so he'll get to keep his $300,000 signing bonus.

No surprise. They already went down this with Vick, and Shembo came in with baggage.

The Panthers are closing in on a contract extension with Cam Newton.
The deal, which could be done as soon as Monday afternoon, is expected to keep Newton in Carolina through the 2020 season. It will likely be announced as something similar to the six-year, $95 million Ryan Tannehill contract -- but will contain more guaranteed money at signing. Newton has gone 30-31-1 in four years since the Panthers took him No. 1 overall, winning the NFC South twice. Jun 1 - 9:52 AM
