Players don't tank. Tanking is systemic. It comes from up above. If you're not trying on a football field, you're gonna get blown up, and maimed. Dumping all of your good players, and not putting your best players out there (let's see what we have in Finley was close though) is tanking. A shitty punt is not tanking.
