We're not going to tank. Even with our QB situation, we'll win too many games to get a top 5 pick.

Dumbest question I've seen around here in awhile. It's been 4 games, with 40% of our salary cap injured at times and we're just now starting to get dudes back, we'll be fine. I still think 9-7 makes the playoffs this year with the expanded field.

The whole point is to let people vent.Its better than being pissed all week.

Ridiculous. It will be tough with all the injuries but nothing is over at 2-2.

Why tank? SF is still very legit. I can remember when my Hawks started 1-3 and 2-4 a couple of times and got hot in November and made the playoffs. It's been 4 games and you're 2-2 with banged up starters. Wait til the team heals up and Jimmy G is back healthy. Way too early for tank talk

get jimmy back. we still have the same horrid o line but at least his release can help things out. i figured they would be careful with deebo but with deebo. bourne the kid and kittle. we have weapons.. however if we can not run.. back to the line.. even jimmy can not produce when he is always in third and long

Teams. don't. tank. Coaches. don't. tank.
And as HORRIBLE as our O-line is and as awful as Mullens played this year, we are too talented to be thinking about tanking. 2-2 teams don't talk about tanking. We aren't 3-1 because for all intents and purposes, Nick Mullens gave the game away. This whole line of thinking is ridiculous and absurd. No player would respect a franchise that did this. Just stop.

I wouldn't hate it. I'm secretly cheering on Covid shortening the season so we can just blame it on 2020 and move on to next year

Great, an opposing rival fan makes more sense than some in here, embarrassing. Thank you sir, don't mind the extreme overreaction, it's normal in here after a loss.

Opponents have more clarity. We are emotional right now. Plus its easy to say that with Russell Wilson on the team. He can lead a special olympic team to the playoffs.

Our defense missing half of its starters continues to hold teams to the the teens or less in points. All our offense needs to do is limit/eliminate turnovers and we will have a winning season. Reinforcements are coming soon. There is no reason to panic..

Nothing wrong with venting. We're all upset right now, but talking about tanking at this point is ridiculous.

Looking objectively, Anti-tank people are as upset as the tankers.We are all fans and we know we should have won last night.I am disappointed in Nick.He saw a somewhat disciplined team last night and lost his composure.I didn't expect that from him.
