If your NFL team was eliminated from playoff contention, would you root for or against them?

Would you root for them so that their season won't look so embarrassing, or against them so they can get a better draft pick for next season?

And even winning we still hold the #3 pick I believe.

Steelers and Patriots don't have high draft picks, but they're able to identify the talent wherever they draft and are contenders year after year.

Look at Cleveland. They have high draft picks year after year, and they stink.

How many top draft picks have they had over the years? Yet, they managed only one Superbowl run, and that was because of Kurt Warner.

A 49ers fan has two favorite teams every weekend: the Niners and whoever is playing the Dallas Cowboys.
