I disagree with the tankathon folks. If you listened to Jon Stinchcomb the other day he said tanking or losing games on purpose can have a devastating effect on the culture in the locker room.
Agreed. You can’t just tell players not to try. A lot of these players are still playing for bonuses annd incentives. Most NFL careers are very short (I think the average is like 3.4 years). Not all of these players are going to retire from the league as multi millionaires. Others are playing for their next contract - which could be life altering money. They have to try.
If you want to tank, you need the GM to do that prior to the start of the season. You can’t just tell players 14 weeks into the season to try to lose (not that they need to try). That would get around the league super quick and you’ll both lose players and not be able to attract good ones in FA.
