That's the word for this team and it's coaching staff.
How... in all honesty how with 2 star running backs, a great #1 receiver, 2 rookies proving their worth, a steady O-Line, and you can't make your below-average rookie quarterback work? You can't put the game in his hands, but you can give it to your 2nd and 3rd backups? Why not try to win when you have seen Thad provide? This team does not want to win this year.
You go up against a Steelers team that is one foot in the grave, and you see your ungodly sad schedule coming up, and 9-7 doesn't seem out of reach... but the coaches think "hey, let's babysit this menial specimen so we can look good in a few years." and not try. It really looked like they didn't even try. No hurry up, CJ comes in for his 1 play of the drive, they have a chance to change personnel, it goes nowhere, and a punt with Moorman who looked horrid. This team does not want to win this year.
Defensively, we have a top 3 line. With Williams, Williams, and Carrington, that is a first rank. Branch and Dareus just make it that much better, but they can't win the game for you. In comes Kiko, Nigel, and Manny. As stated in another thread, Kiko and Manny are having great seasons. Nigel... meh. Then you back up in to the atrocious secondary and ask where Byrd is, see that Aaron is having a great year, and Gilmore and McKelvin are making up for lost ground while Brooks is invisible and Robey and Leonhard have been huge surprises. Take a look at the disgraceful secondary lapses and tell me that you would put in the personnel that the Bills staff did and it wouldn't have gone MUCH better if the team wanted to win. This team does not want to win this year.
So what year do they want to win? 2014? 2015? When Ralph is gone?
