Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills made recent appearances on HBO’s ‘Hard Knocks’ which follows the team as they prepare for the upcoming NFL season. While the show definitely has a large fan base, it was pretty disappointing to see that the show did not cover certain crucial topics related to the team’s previous seasons, especially their loss to the Chiefs in the AFC Championships.

Chris Russo, popular sports media personality, literally tore into this during a recent ‘What are you mad about?’ segment and called out HBO for disappointing fans and basically doing a terrible job.

“The nation has not seen the Buffalo Bills since that play, January 25th at Arrowhead, when they lost to the Chiefs. Not the first, second, third, for the fourth time in the playoffs. This is the AFC championship game. So, you got HBO, this is the first show of the episode,” Russo said. “I don’t want to see it late August. I want to see it now. This is a first time I get a look at the Bills this year. I got to see somebody, (offensive lineman Conor) McDermott, Josh Allen, what happened at the fourth-and-1 sneak? Did you not sleep for two weeks? Dalton Kincaid, you dropped the pass. That’s lousy TV. I’m a sports fan. You want me to watch the Bills on August 5th? You got to at least close what happened last year. A horrific job. I’m not the only person who thinks this. Ask the tough question on fourth-and-1.” Chris Russo spoke about ‘Hard Knocks’ on ‘What are you mad about?’ recently.

“Is it ‘Soft Knocks,’ ‘Hard Knocks’?” Renowned sports caster, Stephen A. Smith responded.

Chris Russo ranted about the Hard Knocks debut.

"Lousy TV. I'm a sports fan and you want me to watch the Bills on August 5th? At least close what happened last year. A horrific job!"

Stephen A Smith concurred, "Is it 'Soft Knocks' 'Hard Knocks'?"https://t.co/NRCX6SwHDy pic.twitter.com/dAD7c3qcWa

Josh Allen’s Buffalo Bills have hardly been able to win against the Kansas City Chiefs over the last few seasons, and their rivalry is perhaps one of the biggest in the league. In the 2025 NFL season, the Bills and the Chiefs will be locking horns in Week 8, in a highly-anticipated matchup.

Josh Allen Calls Wedding Night His ‘Best Night’

While Josh Allen’s defeat against the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC Championships might not have been covered thoroughly, the show definitely gave fans a close sneak peek into the quarterback’s recent marriage to actress, Hailee Steinfeld.

Allen recalled his wedding night and immediately remarked that it “was the best night” of his life. He also jokingly remarked that Steinfeld says the same thing as well. Josh Allen and Hailee Steinfeld got married on the last day of May this year, in a very intimate, yet elegant, ceremony.
