Right now 65% chance of not making the playoffs.

This can change very quick though. In either direction for all teams.

Tanking is for losers. I want them to go 3-14 the old fashioned way!

 

[DallasInDC]

I never, under any circumstances, advocate tanking...it's a losers mentality...period.

Many of you have stated for the team to tank so it will be an easy answer for you.

Me? Hell no.

 

[Rockport]

And the reason you don’t, is because when you give up once, every succeeding opportunity it gets easier and easier to where it’s just your nature, to quit. We’ve got hundreds here like that.

I don't think you understand the concept of tank.
They don't have to tank, they are what they are.

I understand perfectly. You, on the other hand, obviously have no clue.

The only tank I want is at 3T or 1T to stop the run.

No more top player injuries. 2-best corners, 2-best defensive ends, and the #2 receiver. Enough!

Bold> Exaggeration. 'Hundreds of comments discussing quitting or not quitting'? Yes. Otherwise, identifying even 100 names of actual members stating they want the team to quit would be like pulling 100 pro-tank members out of this 2015 thread tanking poll.

Heck. I am typing a comment in a tank poll thread, with a current vote (i.e. individual member) count of 57-13 in favor of not tanking.

A few people, not saying what someone wants them to say, one million times, is not one million people not saying what someone wants them to say. It is the number of members. It is not the number of comments.

I should‘ve clarified. I meant there are hundreds here who have already given up, quit on the season.

We need more talent….yes, but it’s not like one top 10 pick will fix our problems. Anyone talking about tanking is a moron. Tanking only made sense if you moved on from Prescott.

Until something is said. That is all God does, is talk. Our job is just to listen...pretty simple. Being a fan of the Cowboys, is also pretty easy.

My advice? Grab a sheet of paper. Open some threads of members saying they quit on the season. Write their names. Add them up.

That's all I got. If that is not enough, I will understand my suggestion was Rockported.

 

[LowTech]

I don't want them to but I think we are losing the next 2. After that, we'll see

The ‘’tank‘’ will happen organically whether the moronic owner and the blind homers like it or not, aka the team is trash.

I really don’t give a rats butt if you believe me or not. I believe it’s true and that’s all that matters to me.

Not tank but at some point you need to just throw in the young guys and let them play even if you know you are going to lose. It's good for evaluation and experience for the future. This current team is not built to win a championship, so it doesn't really matter.

When you’re out of the playoff hunt would be a good time.

This team will never tank because Jerry wants to be good enough for ratings, but doesn't care enough about winning it all. He also has no clue what to do with a top 5 pick, anyway, or ten of them if he were to trade top players.
Everyone here knows the only way we will ever get out of the grip of mediocrity is to lose, and lose so badly that people stop watching or talking. But Jerry cares juuuust enough, so that will never happen. All we can do is watch with a measure of hope and low expectations. Hoorahhh for the Campo Years revisited.
