Mike FlorioNFL teams absolutely tank, they just do it by playing worse players
Hell yes, there's tanking in football. It's just subtle. The players on the field aren't trying to lose, but someone high up in the organization makes sure the worst players are on the field. 'We want to evaluate the backup quarterback... and if they play like crap, good.'

Big CatIf Alabama loses to Georgia without Nick Saban on the sideline, it shouldn't count as a loss
If Alabama loses does it count? Is it a Coach K thing? Does Nick Saban not get this on his record? ... I unironically think yes. I think Nick Saban will get in front of the press and say exactly that. Be like, 'Hey, guess what? That wasn't my team. That was Steve Sarkisian's team.'
PFT CommenterNick Saban is worth seven points to the betting line in an Alabama game
I do kind of think that Nick Saban is definitely worth seven points in a game. So if they lose by fewer than seven points, then I would say this does not count as a loss.
Billy FootballPeyton Manning is definitely using HGH
Billy football spotted that he's got the Omaha Beach... Omaha Beach nipples... possible HGH. ... He's obviously taking always multiple nipples like a pig. ... Definitely juicing, definitely realizing I feel like a lot of retired guys just start juicing because they could never do it during their career.

View profileMike FlorioThe Chargers could beat the Chiefs on Correction Sunday
Could it be something as drastic as the Chargers beating the Chiefs, the Chiefs at four and oh, the Chargers at oh and five? I think it's only been three times since the merger that a team four and oh or better has lost to a team oh and four or worse.
Mike FlorioSomeone will be fired if the Chargers start 0-6
The Chargers are never gonna be any more desperate than they are on Sunday, because their bye week comes next. And I assume somebody's getting fired. If they lose, whether it's Mike McDaniel, whether it's all the way up to Jim Harbaugh, I don't know, but I assume somebody's out if they go oh and six into the bye.
Mike FlorioJosh Jacobs may not play again until the NFL sees the video
If I'm the NFL, my position is, hey man, you're not playing again until we see this. ... I think that's gonna keep this paid leave extended beyond Week 6 for Josh Jacobs.
