What are the chances the NFL enacts some sort of disciplinary action against the Dolphins for tanking? I have never heard of anything being done to talent bereft NFL teams before, but I have also never heard the kind of coverage Miami is getting for any other team supposedly tanking. Usually there is a simple acknowledgement that there isn’t a lot of talent on a team, but never before have I heard so many sportscasters actually referring to a team as tanking. This is what I am starting to hear after just one week. If Miami moves Minkah or X, it will get far worse.
Goodell is so unpredictable to me. He is letting AB play this week (unless something has changed in just the last few hours), but a widely discussed deliberate failure of a team to move up in the draft might actually be the kind of thing that spurs him into action. Plus, since his favorite team is in the AFCE, it would give him a chance to keep Craft in good standing with him.
Maybe it’s absurd, but a part of me really wonders if the league will actually do something on this.
