Organic Tanking

Play sick for pick.....

It's not tanking if they were going to lose anyway.

I'm sure I'm not the first one to make that comment. (Didn't read the thread)

Organic Tanking? Yep, I could see the Skins screwing us royally with that next week.

Here we go folks here is the term to use! I think at least. Best of both worlds. A bit grey I know but I think it works. What do you think?

Mike Fisher has coined the term "Organic Tanking" on 105.5 The Fan to describe the Cowboys rest of the season (2 more games).
"Lose on purpose? No. priorities in addition to winning – like protecting dinged-up veterans and eyeballing young prospects and hey, if you happen to lose, “lose with valor”?

Yessir. That’s “organic tanking”: you don’t lose on purpose … It just kind of happens."

I bet they will try hard to lose but they will probably end up winning instead. It seems that this team this year is so out of whack that even if they try to tank, they fail.

How is that different from what we've been doing? How about we continue to do what we've been doing and that will ensure that we have the highest pick possible. Lol.

No Romo, no Dez, no Beas, no Mo and we are talking about tanking?

Kellen Moore with backup Matt Cassel, Twill number 1 receiver, and a Jason Garrett offensive game plan. Organic tanking? If we win Kellen Moore needs a close inspection and why the heck did we not know what we had in house.

Well why is Cassel still on the roster now ??? They brought up Showers !!!!! They know what Cassel is and still keep him around!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[mahoneybill]

these next 2 games to me are like pre season. Test out the backups, see who is worth keeping, and get ready for the draft...

First time in a very long time I won't be disappointed with an L

Organic Tanking if you ask Mike Fisher who is always looking for a hook.

What do we want? A loss!
When do we want it? Now!

Then again, winning these last two games may get us a new coach, lol.

LOL what a stupid phrase. There is nothing "organic" about manipulating the lineup.
