Quote:So a team coming in to this year considered by many to be a championship contender decided, " I know we have a chance at a title this year, but if we lose a bunch of games we have a chance at Teddy Bridgewater"? You really are on a planet all by yourself.

 

Once they became the pick 6-ans, I imagine that a lot of the players stopped giving so much effort.  The players have probably given up.  They're probably not doing it 'for the first pick'.  But I doubt they're giving games their all.  If they were, I imagine they'd have won another game by now.  They're not so much 'tanking for teddy' as they are unmotivated , and the team will try to reap the benefits.  But even an unmotivated tinhorns team might be able to beat us in Everbank.
