People hate this opinion - but I'm gonna say it anyway. Once a season over mathematically, tank it baby. I'll take the picks over victories then. Why? The ultimate goal - a superbowl victory. No one remembers an 8-8 season - everyone remembers winning it all. So put yourself in a position where you're most likely to win it as quickly as possible. That goal is helped (theoretically at least) by having higher draft picks.
Doesn't always work that way in practice I know but the sentiment is sound.
Also - I don't actually live in St. Lo. so I don't pay my hard earned cash to go to the games. I understand people who do have the means and the will to pony up expect and demand their team plays hard every down for them. I respect and understand that.
Like I said! People often disagree with me on this one!
