Watching the game, Peterman got no help whatsoever from the rest of the offense.

The first pick was an easy completion, and the other four all came in the face of a savage pass rush. Buffalo's players didn't show up for him at all, which is an alarming sign in and of itself.

the players know the team is trying to tank with the switch so said fuck that. Then Taylor comes in at the half and is competent -- nm - Beaker Nov 20, 11:03 14
- Why would a team ranked 6th to make the playoffs decide to tank? It makes no sense. -- nm - Diva Nov 20, 11:12 13
  - Because they knew they weren't a long-term threat to contend and wanted to tear it down - Will Hunting Nov 20, 11:49 1
    - if you have a good chance to go to the playoffs and your team hasn't been there in 18 or 19 seasons you try to get there. - Diva Nov 20, 12:10
  - Why would -anyone- tank? "Hello? You play to win the game." -- nm - David Nov 20, 11:23 5
    - Because winning could be a short-term negative? - Will Hunting Nov 20, 11:52 2
      - Tanking's a terrible idea in every sport. And it's ignoble. -- nm - David Nov 20, 11:56 1

  - yup, totally weird all the way around. -- nm - Beaker Nov 20, 11:17
  - Thank you. Isn't the purpose of tanking to be good and make the playoffs? You were doing that already. -- nm - volnelk Nov 20, 11:17 3
