Was the tank plan in effect before the start of the season?

#77

Quote:I think they were 80% convinced Gabbert sucked so tanking was definitely part of the plan.  In the event Gabbert transformed into a good QB, they would have had a win-win situation in which they gutted the roster and did not have to use a 2014 pick on a QB.

 

As of today, the plan is going as expected.   The only frustrating part for Bradley is he's realizing that his "nice guy" message of effort is not getting through.
Exactly.  Because this team was so bad, they had the luxury of giving Gabbert one last chance to prove himself.  I suspect they've always had their eyes on the 2014 draft to address the QB situation unless it started to click for Gabbert.  Even then, I think they more than likely would've still picked a QB next year.  He's simply made that decision an easy one.

Never argue with idiots. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.
