I know how much some of you guys love pulling for losses to get dRaFt PiCkS!  When does Huddle tank season officially start? I'm new at this and want to be prepared, I may even buy jerseys of the opposing teams so I can really get into the spirit this year. Thanks in advance!

Your pal,

We have 1 pick in rounds 1-3.

tanking is done by a front office in the offseason. 

players don't tank.  They want jobs.   Their film matters even on a losing team. 

And money with escalators and stuff like that. I mean no one takes the field wanting to NOT make plays, even the most selfish players are trying to make plays for themselves if nothing else.

Usually the tanking talk starts in earnest when we are in a top 10 draft pick position in the second half of the season. 

We are sitting at 15th at the moment so I don't think we will see that sort of jumping off the cliff for a few weeks. 

Also, this is a trash QB draft so I don't think there will be as many "tankers" as before.

    • agree to disagree you are entitled to that opinion even though I find the argument completely bizarre based on data. I could type out a long paragraph discussing those areas but what’s the point. I posted a screenshot that showed Bryce in a similar post snap situation with a free rusher in his face which resulted in a TD - that’s what happened on the play so I posted it. 
    • I've already addressed this notion in a previous reply. You are basing your assertion outside reality if you think Bryce would have not only been more successful but defeated the Patriots in place of Herbert. Bryce got blown off the field by that Patriots team with the highest paid OL in the league. We've seen Bryce with an OL that gave up 65 sacks and it resulted in the #1 pick. And that is not a defense of Herbert or arguing he is a great QB in any way. He has physical talent but he has been similar to Darnold early in his career in terms of his very up and down perfomances. However that does not change the fact that they have significantly less invested in the OL than the Panthers.
    • I think Tepper has been setting the stage where pending there is no miracle he wipes it all clean.  Think you already have been told that with small things like Evero staying.  Bryce is the guy next year.  OC, DC, everything stays the same.  QB room largely the same.  Nothing would really matter there.  They basically get one more shot and it goes how the schedule paired with our 27th ranked O predictably most likely goes.  Everyone out the door together.  Bryce is a bridge tier QB.  I don’t see Dave surviving where he could be bridge QB here in reality.
