philly did it... turned out well for them

What happened to their coach?  And no, it has not "turned out well for them".  Tanking in the NFL does not work.  Everyone is going full /swoon over Miami's brilliant strategy.  Guess what.  They never tanked.  Once.  Ever.

Not enough to make us lose.  Haskins is terrible.

listen to what u said miami didnt tank lol. they traded away their first round pick tackle, they traded away their all pro saftey fitz they absolutely tanked... what are you saying

In my opinion the week we played WFT the writing should have been on the wall for tepper/rhule to see. It was clear even to me, just a fan, that we were in a race with the falcons for a top 5 pick. I KNEW if we won against WFT and falcons continued losing, they would have pick 3 or 4. 

So if I knew, why didn't they? In a draft like this one where there's so many good QBs. Knowing teddy sucks. Knowing Matt ryan is getting older. It was just a foolish move not to find a way to lose that game.

A situation like that calls for PJ walker or Grier to start "to see what we have"... Something. Anything. 

Now the falcons will grab our quarterback with no good QB in sight for us anytime soon. They don't grow on trees folks. We were lucky to even have a chance at any of these lottery guys and we needed to find a way.

in the way they didnt get fined or in trouble for it, and they are picking ahead of us ended up able to parley that pick into more draft picks. worked out well to me.

People remember these tanking maneuvers for like a week or two then everybody doesn't care anymore. It's a goofy narrative to not tank. To tank a whole season? Maybe I could see the argument for why that's dumb. Tanking ONE game that could decide your franchises entire future? Yeah, you find a way to do that.

I'm tempted to make a new thread asking this but I'll restrain and just ask you, how would you feel if all the QBs were taken and we picked Patrick surtain and doubled down and sent our 2nd for JC jackson? I know, sounds crazy but if we don't get a QB I think I'd rather just go all out to repair the defense

One good thing to be proud of. We won a meaningless game against WFT to not have #3 spot.

Just breathe. It's going to be alright. We've dodged a crap ton of bullets in this offseason in not getting what some people here want.

Miami started the season 0-7.  You are right.

They ended the season 5-4. 

Where do you see them tanking?  I swear.  At least pretend to glance at football records or something.

Twice last season this happened for two different teams.  Where a team tanked a single game.

The people responsible never coached another game.

Jets DC after looking like he intentionally went to lose the game vs Raiders at the last second.

Eagles HC.

Reap what you sow. The reason we are in this position is because of David Tepper. Every move he's made so far has blown up in his face. I have no faith in him being a successful owner in the NFL. Hope im wrong but so far its not looking like it
