I guess that the Texans should have tanked in that game and received the #1 pick instesd of the Bears?

The Texans have not had good success with QBs. That has hurt the franchise. Matt Schaub and Deshaun Watson have probably been the best. They both won one playoff game.

No incentive for Smith to tank as he probably knew he wasn't coming back either way. Pro players have no incentive either as they aren't wired that way plus many them are fighting for contracts next season. Probably the only ones wanting to tank besides fans are the GM and owner.

Very impressive get by the Bears. Moving on from the Big Ten Commissionership would be a move that I'd have thought would only be voluntarily done if wanting to semi-retire or to become a major pro league commissioner.
