Are we low-key tanking? Donnelly thinks we're half-tanking.

I never said they were intentionally tanking.   But the Tepper Panthers have been tanking since he arrived. 

The one time they intentionally tanked Steve Wilks won a bunch of games with Sam Darnold throwing 10 passes a game lol.  Actually the most successful period under Tepper.

“Tanking” means sucking on purpose to build up draft capital and or $

sounds like you just mean “sucking”

Nothing to tank for, just draft another QB on day 3 instead of a random position player that is also a shot in the dark, if Bryce sucks and that QB sucks then draft another QB higher next year. Over and over again til you get one

Well, that's what we'd actually be tanking for: the opportunity to draft high in every round next season (but the second 😅), including the highest rated QB. Now of course, the QBs are suspect...

Your last sentence sounds too akin to QB Hell.

    • I know we're in the hopium phase of the year right now but this is all over the game film that every defense we face is going to be waiting for. If Bryce keeps doing this sooner or later we are going to be stuck arguing over why this or that receiver sucks because they can't bail out Bryce all the time. Legette would just be next in line. Bryce is a first overall pick. He's got to figure out how to get some more torque out of his arm. These yarns about his frame and this and that just seem like an excuse to justify him not wanting to lift weights. He's got to match the output of his offensive counterparts who have been putting in the work.
    • Well, if we'd sat Bryce then we'd have gone 17~0 on the way to Superb Owl win!  Of course right? Honestly, it's one of those Schrodinger's Cat situations.  There are an infinite number of possibilities that it could have been between: Worse and Better.   Dalton would have looked better.  We'd have won more games.  Reich would probably be going into year two with Scott Fitterer at GM.  Would we be a be a better team? We would have zero idea if Bryce was the dude, kind of where we are now.  Except Bryce would not have had as much adversity.  With QBs in the NFL, you don't have much time to evaluate.  You used to be able to sit guys for a year or two, but now a days, you are up and playing week 1. I think we'd be in worse shape honestly.  I like how things are going right now under D&D.  I am not sure Fitterer would have done any better in FA or the Draft or if Reich would have shown his coaching acumen any better in 2024. So instead of changing the past, we have to keep looking forward.  Learn the lessons from the past, but keep moving forward.
