The in-season version of Hard Knocks officially wrapped this week and in case you were unaware it spent the last few weeks chronicling the Dallas Cowboys and the NFC East as a whole.<\/p>\n
The show that we all know and love pivoted to covering an entire division midseason last year with the AFC North and this season decided that the only division where every team has won a Super Bowl was the spot to be. That decision makes sense given when it was made as the Philadelphia Eagles were the reigning champions, the New York Giants and Washington Commanders are in huge markets, and the Dallas Cowboys are the Dallas Cowboys.<\/p>\n
Personally I have always found the movies that NFL Films churns out to be riveting and captivating. Their work is a big reason why I love football as much as I do. You can understand then how getting to speak to co-director Michelle Navarrete about all of this was quite the treat. You can catch our conversation below.<\/p>\n
Michelle discussed the challenges that their team faced that ranged from a number of intriguing storylines to covering the tragic death of Marshawn Kneeland. Their job was to present life as it was unfolding for each team in the division and they did a splendid job of doing so. Understanding how that process unfolds is fascinating.<\/p>\n
Navarrete noted that she also worked on the Hard Knocks that covered the Cowboys at training camp in 2021, the traditional version of the show, and that working with Dallas is always a joy.<\/p>\n
Our thanks to Michelle and NFL Films both for the time and for their hard work on the show!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The in-season version of Hard Knocks officially wrapped this week and in case you were unaware it spent…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":680557,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2066],"tags":[230,229,257,61874,436,2461,7,6],"class_list":{"0":"post-680556","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-dallas-cowboys","8":"tag-cowboys","9":"tag-dallas","10":"tag-dallas-cowboys","11":"tag-dallas-cowboys-general","12":"tag-dallas-cowboys-news","13":"tag-dallascowboys","14":"tag-football","15":"tag-nfl"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/115902021005994732","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/680556","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=680556"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/680556\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/680557"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=680556"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=680556"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=680556"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
