How do injuries factor into a tank?
Tanking involves intent. You can't intend for your players to get injured.
Also, like always, our injuries are overblown. Do they suck? Yup. But every team deals with them.
The Niners were down the QB1, their WR1, their RB1, and their best defensive player for multiple games. And I'm pretty sure they were missing George Kittle in that stretch too.
The Eagles have been down 4 of the their top 5 WR options for multiple games.
The Cowboys OL is decimated, and they just lost a 30 million dollar QB... The Chargers have been hit extremely hard at skill positions...
I could go on and on. Too many people on here look solely at our situation, without looking around the league to realize it's not all that unique.
