So the only way to tank is to play back ups.  In order to do this you either have to trade away starters or bench them for minor injuries.

I think Taylor began to lose the locker room last year when he benched Dalton for Finley.  Vets who were putting the bodies on the line to play were probably pissed off that the coach was not giving them a chance to win.

If you never gave Finley a look, you wouldn't know what you had. I don't blame Taylor at all for giving Finley a look after Dalton went 0 for 8, but I do blame him for keeping Finley as the #2

I don't think this team is capable of tanking. They would probably win if they tried that. They fail at everything else. Besides you can't tank when you are this bad..

I don’t believe in tanking. But with this team it is going to happen without trying. Jo was the team with out him no offense. What defense there was left last week when joe went down. Total implosion. The heart is gone. Joe gave the team a chance of being in the game. That left with the injury.

Not sure about you, but I'd call 2-7-1 tanking as it is. It's tough to suck to even more, but I'm sure Taylor will show us all a new level of suck ass.
