So there's no point in saying, "We should tank for Trevor" because it won't happen. We didn't lose on purpose last year. We lost because we genuinely sucked. Yes, I agree that we were lucky to suck at the right time, but we didn't tank. We just got really really lucky to suck at the right time. And the Jets- God bless 'em- they played like professionals and tried to win every game.

But did you mind if they lost/root for them to lose whether they were truly tanking or not?

No, I did not mind. Yes, once we got deep into the season, I did root for them to lose.
