Saints players say 'tanking' for better draft position is never an option
The New Orleans Saints have been grinding through the 2015 season more than four months now. Fatigue has no doubt set in, as it often does for players when the season winds now.
Barring an unlikely series of events, the Saints (5-8) won't have a playoff berth to recharge their spirits. However, they proved their minds were still on football when they snapped a four-game losing streak last week against the Buccaneers. Worn down as they may be, don't count on them throwing in the towel. "Our job is to win," said Saints quarterback Drew Brees. When a team is unlikely to make the playoffs, it is often suggested it would be more beneficial to lose. The theory says wins don't count for much if the playoffs aren't possible, but a loss could move a team higher in the draft order and ensure long-term success. ![]() read more | |
