I'm having a stressful discussion in other forum about tanking, specifically the Colts 2011 season.
I'd like to know your opinion on this subject.
I understand players rely on their individual stats to not get cut, get better contracts, get a name on the market. So it's difficult to imagine a scenario where players do not give their best, intentionally.
I also think that sometimes coaches / front office don't put too much effort on changing things like it seems to be the case on the mentioned Colts 2011 season. So I don't think players tank, maybe the franchise tank and at a certain point of the season players get contaminated by that behavior.
