btrain5489 13 Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 the season seems to be pretty much over for us and i dont really see playingfor anything besides respect.Should they lose?I think a more accurate question is do they even stand a chance of winning any of the final games.

jidady 9,083 Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 Never tank intentionally to lose games in the NFL. It almost always ends badly.Of course, the good (?) news is that with all of our tackles out on both sides of the ball, we don't have to tank intentionally to lose.

REV.2000 1,888 Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 TO GO OUT THERE WITH ANYTHING OTHER THAN THE INTENT TO WIN WOULD MEAN THAT YOU HAVE NO INTEGRITY. BESIDES IT'S ILLEGAL IN THE NFL TO THROW GAMES. AND YOU CAN EVEN GO TO JAIL FOR IT. SO MAYBE WE HAVE A LOT OF CRIMINAL MINDED FANS. TO THROW A GAME ......... THATS 100% WORST THAN DOG FIGHTING .... THATS RIGHT ... I SAID IT!!!:cool: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bloodhoundz864 2 Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 If The Falcons lose it won't be because of tanking it will be because they just can't win. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
falcon1fan 741 Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 Screw playing for pride, I want to lose for the second pick. We dont have to tank to lose it seems to be a gift bestowed upon us. I dont want to tank, but I dont want to win either. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Unknøwn 13,160 Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 Pretty sure you dont have to worry about tanking they just simply cant win and they probably wont win again this season. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
falconstat2dfreak 0 Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 at this point right now i don't care either way this season is more then a bust it is just a joke.i would not tank games on purpose but geeeez even if you are gonna lose atleast try to see what other stuff is on the sidelien there b.p. there is not reason now not to start the 2 or 3rd string anything might as well see how these guys can do as there might be something to be had there.morality = less then zero with this teamheart = 100% in this ##### to win it. i support fully and oh yes GO BIRDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

VincentVanBro 55 Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 I dont want us to tank plays but honestly I don't mind seeing us lose anymore.Id rather have a 3-13 season than a 4-12 or 5-11 season if it brings us a superstar in the draft and we have success for years to come. We are out of the mix already, our wins mean nothing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Atlsport 1,844 Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 We should lose every game this season, and every season that follows, just to see if it's possible.If anyone can do it, the Falcons can. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Shiney_McShine 543 Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 Losing on purpose to move up in the draft is much like faking a disability to get a handicap parking permit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
