    Needless moral victories during a lost season do nothing except ruin our top 6 draft pick

      Take the win. With the 2nd pick take the HoF DE and watch the generational QB fade into oblivion like most do.
      1) Cut Becton, Boz(ret), Dissly, DD, Fisk, and Dupree
      2) Re-sign Tart, Hand (4m), Phillips (5m)
      3) Sign the ERFA's Williams, Patterson, and Vidal (3m).
      4) Sign free agents Cole Strange (OG-1.5 m), Whyatt Teller (OG-10m), Luke Fortner (OC-6.5m), Brunskill (OC-vet min) Leo Chenal (LB-5m), Rashid Shaheed (WR- 14m), Cade Otten (TE-8m) Greg Dulcich (TE-3m), K'Lavon Chaisson (ED 9m), Myers (DT-7.8m), Alec Ingold (FB-6m), Hendrickson (ED-25m), Seumalo (OG-9m), AVT (OG). Jenkins (OG- 12m)

        There is 0 benefit of winning the remaining games. If we lose we get a higher draft pick. Therefore at this time there is
        more benefit for losing. After all we are in last place and will remain there even if we win one game.

          Winning is always better than losing.

            If you want your team to lose, what’s the point of being a fan?

              Don't go for 2 points to win on the last play of the game.
              Miss the extra point ?

                The Giants’ defense looks like the Chargers’ Staley defense. Never where they’re supposed to be.

                  Knocking the Chiefs to the 4th seed, or, better, to a wildcard, would be priceless.

                    Except that we are already losers and nothing to play for. The players and coaches are playing for their jobs. So it's a bit different for them.
                    But for us fans it benefits the team to lose rather than win. Doesn't mean I'm going to root for the opposing team. Hope they play a good game,
                    and lose. Bills game was good.

                    Really don't care about the other teams in our division at this point. Means nothing to beat them at this time. Denver may tank. Chiefs won't
                    so we really have to put in our best effort to beat them.

                    But again the best thing for the team is to lose out. We'll get a higher draft pick and if we decide to trade down more value.

                      Winning is what to play for. I never want my team to lose. End of story.

                        That's your short sighted view. I want a competitive team that ultimately wins a SB. Better players help that cause.
                        Theoretically better players are found earlier in the draft and you also have more value to trade down.

                        I therefore respectfully disagree with you.

                          Winning is short sighted?
