Without a shadow of a doubt, the most entertainment Steelers fans could have ever dreamed of was experienced last Tuesday night during HBO’s Hard Knocks: In Season with the AFC North debut episode.
The premiere of the AFC North’s rendition of Hard Knocks went off with a bang and showcased not only several important storylines fans have grown familiar with during the 2024 season but also shed light on some important behind-the-scenes revelations for the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Aside from the backstage point of view and the inner workings of what went into the Pittsburgh Steelers’ game plan for Week 13’s contest against the Cincinnati Bengals, there were several fun and exciting moments throughout. From HC Mike Tomlin’s passion to the Heyward brothers’ hilarious dynamic, fans were in love with the new series’ debut. With that in mind, here are some of the best fan reactions to the premiere of Hard Knocks: In Season with the AFC North.
After watching this first episode of Hard Knocks, if you think the Steelers, their culture or their coaching staff isnt a Super Bowl Contender, youre absolutely insane.
Fire me up

What a sensational hard knocks episode. You can tell they wanted to keep it on the Steelers the whole time but were forced to show other teams here and there

I’ve always been a fan of Mike T. Like most #Steelers fans I’ve criticized him but man that hard knocks episode really put into perspective just how good of a coach he is. Thought Harbaugh and him were close but can’t say that I believe that at this point

#Steelers mean business on hard knocks.
Meanwhile In Cincinnati their quarterback is talking about buying a Batmobile.

Hard Knocks was great. Steelers built different than the rest of the AFC. Tomlin is THAT DUDE. Love him. #HereWeGo
