How important is it to tank this game?

I'm sorry but winning this game will likely be very costly. Tankathon has the Bucs drafting 6th right now. If the Bucs lose they might not pick up any spots. But if they win they will drop down to as low as 12th by my reckoning.

Here are the teams behind them who if they lose would be 5-11 or 6-10 with a lower SOS. Buffalo (plays Miami), NYGiants (plays Dallas), Jacksonville (plays Houston), Atlanta, Carolina (Plays New Orleans), Denver (plays LAChargers). So its very possible all those teams will lose, and if the Bucs win they would drop behind all of them.

So start Ryan Griffin. Start Alex Cappa. Start the practice squad. Start the waterboy. Lose this game!
