I dunno if it's an unwritten rule or not, but when was the last time the series chose a team with a first-year coach?

Unfortunately, the QB room as it stands in DET isn't going to provide much excitement for the cameras, but hey everyone can get their Chark fixes now!

The reason why I believe the Lions were chosen over the Jets,  even though the Jets are in the largest market in the country,  is Dan Campbell.  With his coaching staff also a major TV attraction.  

Dan Campbell is the antithesis of Matt Patricia in many ways.  Including,  his openness with the media.   Patricia treated press conferences like having root canals.  Campbell is a blue collar person that outwardly displays passion for football,  his players,  coaches, and life.

Oh I fully expect him to be the star of the show.

With former Jaguars QB Mark Brunell being the Lions QB Coach,  the Lions QB room could easily turn out to be a focal point for plenty of Hard Knocks viewers.  

With Mark Brunell being Tony Boselli's HOF presenter,  it will be interesting to see and hear the interaction with Brunell of others with the Lions (regarding his 2022 HOF experiences).
