Just started watching it this afternoon. I love sports documentaries and after ignoring/not understanding NFL for years I'm finally interested.
I've got a problem though. I don't have a team!! I've watched all the Hard Knocks series, Quarterback, Receivers etc so I've kinda got a liking for a few teams!!
Just watched the 2nd half of the Steelers game and didn't realise that Cousins had gone to the Falcons. 4 year $180m contract!! Madness.
Think I need to pick my team, learn the rules and get interested in it.

Hard Knocks is OK but it's run its course. The latest one, "Soft Cudddles with the Bears" was tired and dated. A friend of mine from NFL Films helps produce it and the talk is this will be the last one.
The QB show on Netflix is good - Kirk Cousins comes across really well - Mariota is just a nob. Not watched the Receivers one as most of them are mouthy self-obsessed prima donnas.
But cue a whole bunch of suggestions coming up on who you should support

New England patriots, they are at the bottom of the heap at the moment so you can enjoy their rise back to the top in the coming years.

@Marshy77 Do not pick those guys, they suck.
You should probably pick the Miami Dolphins in that division, they fill you with hope and then collapse around December every year.

Dolphins win a tough first game, offence was rusty as hell and McDaniel called about 25 screens as I guess he trusts the interior OL as much as the fans. Probably would have lost the game if not for Holland doing his best Peanut Tillman impersonation to punch the ball out of Etiene's hand as he was about to go in and make it 24-7. One 80 yard bomb to Tyreek next play and suddenly it 17-14, such a momentum changer.
Bills on Thursday night, I will not be productive at work on Friday.

From a newbie point of view I really enjoy them.
As for picking a team I think I'm between Lions, Dolphins and Bears.
Kinda sounds like my football team Bradford City. I did consider Dolphins actually, again after watching them on hard knocks

Wait until you have done a Thursday or Monday night game and then done post-game radio before trying to get two hours sleep before starting your normal day. Thursday games should be banned.

It is OFFENSE and DEFENSE. Not offence and defence.
It is Super Bowl. Two words, capital letters.
Thursday night games should be banned - the players hate them.
Back to a 16 game schedule.
Back to the original number restrictions. No more defensive players wearing single digit numbers. No-one wearing 0.
The new "dynamic" kick off rule can just go and do one.

Lions are basically the Browns so he might as well join us I reckon
Great win for the Patriots at the Bengals. A couple of real crunching turnovers when Bengals looked nailed on to score.
And once again loving the 15 minute highlights via YouTube of all the matches.

YouTube highlights are brilliant. I do the same for all the other NHL games outside of watching all the Lightning games in full. If I don't watch the Rays' full game, I do the same for their baseball highlights too.
The Patriots' win was more a case of the Bengals losing. They have had a bad off-season with the Chase contract situation and Burrow is still not 100% healthy. Their panic-meter almost went off the scale after that home loss.
