Tanking the season for Luck?

NM Redskin · 05-10-2011, 03:31 AM

How can Luck not be a bust? With all the hype surrounding this guy, there is no way he live up to it.

I'll pose the same question I always pose when I hear the asinine idea of tanking a season.

How many teams in the league have found their franchise QB's by picking them 1st overall in the draft?

there's certain guys that you just know are gonna be great. Since my fanship of following the draft (7 years or so), sam bradford was the only one for me that was a lock. Andrew Luck is numero dos. These guys just dont come around so often.

Can you imagine 2 or 3 teams playing to lose, might get some all time NFL Folly clips.

on a side note, for some reason I am reminded of this puzzle:

An Arab sheikh tells his two sons to race their camels to a distant city to see who will inherit his fortune. The one whose camel is slower will win.

The brothers, after wandering aimlessly for days, ask a wise man for advise. After hearing the advice they jump on the camels and race as fast as they can to the city. What does the wise man say?

If so, where does the line start for that?

The city is the one they are starting from?

With the 1st pick in the draft...there's been a trade!

LOL Exactly!

So even show up for games?
We should just sit out the whole season and have very rested players.
So in Sept we can just call up Goodell and have him mark us down for zero wins.

I don't think we really have a shot at the playoffs no matter what we do, but do you guys think that even knowing that it is best to buy a bunch of free agents to be as competitive as possible this year, or just let our young guys get some experience?

Moss and Fletch deserve to go to a contenders so I see no reason why either would come back here. Rocky doesn't fit a 3-4 at all so bye bye. I guess I'd bring Brown back cause there's no one else. As far as free agents I'd pass this year and let all the young guys get on the field and get game experience.

Better yet the Redskins tank the season draft Luck hooray. 1st play of his NFL career Rabach misses his block and a LB unloads on him. Monday's press conference Luck has suffered a career ending injury. There goes skinster's can't miss prospect missing the rest of his career. Or we tank the season and Luck suffers a serious injury the Rose Bowl and can't play football then what sir?
