May we, fans, openly start hoping we tank? 8-8 is for losers

[GimmeTheBall!]

Rumors are Herbert might go back to Oregon, and I don't see a QB worth tanking for.

Losing out in December for a franchise QB - understandable. Setting out in October to lose out for Rashan Gary or a WR... ehhh, not worth it.

Firing Garrett is the only real major thing we have to gain by crashing and burning, but he looks like he's set out to tank himself. Bleeding off 50 seconds for a 50 yard FG attempt to tie doesn't sound like a man who's anxious to win the game.

Herbert has the mind of a mixed-up teen girl. I want to play football. I dunno if I want to play NFL football. I will announce. I might go back to Oregon

First off, learn some synonyms for "putative" instead of using it three times in one paragraph. Two, if you're an adult still "living vicariously" through the results of a football team who doesn't even know you exist, you should probably examine your priorities.

I watch football for entertainment. I don't wait months for the season to return just to start rooting for losses - as if I can control such things - out of some holier-fan-than-thou mentality that I'm going to change the team's fortunes by my rooting behavior.

So I'll root for the Cowboys to win next week, too. Because I like to see them win football games. Sue me.

The sarcasm just goes right over your head doesn't it.

We are headed for 8-8.

No more.

No more of these mid-round draft "finds" by Jerry and the scouts.
8-8, 9-7, 7-9 --- they keep us in perpetual average status. Like this season.

Tank it and we pick top 5 in the 2019 draft. Think Bosa. Let's think strategically and for the future.

Never that!

Anyone who was hoping for a tank this season has just lost any incentive for us doing so. Now I kinda hope we are closer to 8-8 just to screw with the Raiders.

Not as if we have a first round pick to get real talent even if we did tank

 

[GimmeTheBall!]

Never that!

Nev-ah!

 

[nate dizzle]

Tank for Chucky?

Re: Tank for Chucky????
Such an obvious repartee, lout. For the 2nd round you habitué de escreebil!!!
Think, if you can, 2nd round!!!

I ain't giving up. Did we give up when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?

Was Jerry Jones running things?

 

[Aerolithe_Lion]

Was Jerry Jones running things?

As much as the Germans were the ones bombing Pearl Harbor.

 

[buybuydandavis]

Will I get blasted if I admit I cheered when the Skins recovered the fumble for a TD?

Its a sad, sad admission for a 40+ year fan, but Jerry and his puppet leave me little choice.

I laughed when the fg went doink.

When you're watching a clown show, it's all about the lolz.

If we had that attitude we'd all be speaking Portuguese right now.

 

[Bob-Lillys-War]

Why tank it ?

We just lost out first rd pick to the raiders .

 

[Fritsch_the_cat]

Nev-ah!

Nev-ah say nev-ah. Quite being such a negative Nellie. We just need to get Dak in the film room, teach him to spot open receivers, then we be jelly. We gonna do this thing.

If Jerry had been in charge, when the attack on Pearl Harbor went down he'd have ordered millions of kitkat bars thinking we just needed to eat chocolate in the foxholes.

 

[Bob-Lillys-War]

Jerry is a full blown senile drunk .

Its over for us .

 

[Fritsch_the_cat]

If Jerry had been in charge, when the attack on Pearl Harbor went down he'd have ordered millions of kitkat bars thinking we just needed to eat chocolate in the foxholes.

And that's exactly what we need to do. This situation absolutely requires a really futile and stupid gesture be done on someone's part.

Let's see, futile and stupid gesture........I know, let's make Jerry the GM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We already did that one, need more stringent measures.
