Perhaps the perfect tank job?

But they were in win now mode to the outside world and hoped for the best. Which is to say tanking wasn't a plan. The win now mode quickly faded away though and I could believe, as has been said the decisions of keeping AJ out and playing Finley and other stuff could have been made with draft choice position in mind.

I don't believe they started out tanking, no.

I don't think anyone could plan it to go the way it did except the guy upstairs.

But I agree, it isn't a coincidence once we had the #1 pick locked up we actually started playing to win.

Gives me hope that if we do the right things in FA, draft Burrow and improve in play calling and in over all coaching we can start 
winning a lot of games and gain confidence under this inexperienced staff. Sometimes you have to go through some shit to not 
take things for granted, I know I have and it makes you stronger.

At least these coaches are not old dogs and cannot learn from their mistakes.
