I think the overall plan for the year is to be a bad year as they make room for next year. But I think the game plan for the team is still to win games with what they've got.

That's self contradictory.

 

It would help if the OP defined his terms.

 

Everyone has a different idea of what "tank" means and in that sense, it's not really a useful term.

Intentionally gutting the roster to lose as many games as possible to get a high overall pick.

If that's the definition, it would be stripping the offense of talent so they can draft a DE next spring.

 

*puts head in hands and weeps.

 

But actually, I think they stripped it for the sake of stripping it, and had no idea how badly they overestimated their offensive talent evaluation skills.

Perfect storm scenario.

I don’t think they are deliberately tanking - I don’t think McBeane are that clever.

 

The team just sucks from GM and HC, to the, OC, OL, WRs, right down the line.

Exactly how I feel.

 

You can't look at the roster spending or personnel moves and believe that Beane prioritized winning this year.  He's obviously building for the future.

 

But I think McD tries his hardest to win every game.

I voted they are not tanking but want them too. But it’s for other reasons. I don’t want to win another game until McD is fired

All the woes of the team grow from McBeane sprouts.
