She could have worded it totally different if that's what she was going for..Not that it really matters, but to clarify, it was a female reporter.
And I really didn't find it to be a silly question. Just because she asks him what he's playing for doesn't mean that she's implying that there's nothing to play for.
First what you play for is to get into the playoffs, then when you no longer can get into the playoffs you play for something else -- she was simply asking what that is for Drew.
Don't be so hard on her, she's a sports reporter for goodness sake

If by some strange twist of fate, you ever find yourself in a conversation with Bill Parcells, Sean Payton, Tony Dungy.......actually pretty much any NFL coach who has remotely accomplished anything.............please repeat that exact statement and have someone record their response, and then put it on YouTube.
My guess is they'll have about the same appreciation of your insight into football that I do.

I.E. - Drew, since you guys are now mathematically eliminated from the playoffs, what are you playing for? Your teammates? The city??
If she worded it that way, us nor Drew would have taken it as if "why are you even playing? You're not going anywhere" kinda question.
he will then gather 32 "coaches" in a room and give them each a quarter and say "heads = wins" and tell them to flip their quarters 100 times
and all will marvel when random coin flips replicate NFL coach winning %s
That reporter should be totally fired, punched or dismembered for asking a provocative question that elicited a rare non-scripted response that has generated fodder for a discussion here that has gone on for three pages. Booo to reporters asking things in ways that will get people off their talking points.
No one wants the players to tank.
Some of us just don't think the best players should be on the field.
None of those things Drew said he's playing for matter to me. Of course, I'm not playing. I just don't think Drew should be playing either.
None of the things Drew said he was playing for should matter to the people running the team.
Either that reporter was trolling for a provocative sound byte, or he is not smart enough to be a reporter. Was he smiling when he asked the question? If not, he needs to find a new occupation.
