Why Browns on 'Hard Knocks'? 'People love rooting for underdogs'

BEREA, Ohio -- The Cleveland Browns are a comeback story, and that's why HBO and NFL Films wanted them on "Hard Knocks" this season.

"We tell our kids that it's not about how you get knocked down, it's how you get back up," vice president of NFL Films Ken Rodgers said Wednesday.

After a winless 2017 season and one win the past two seasons, the Browns have a long way to go to get back up. But it's that element of the story that was appealing to making the Browns the subject of the annual training camp documentary.
