[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 893450, member: 7261"] I think its more than just rest you are hoping for as a reason to sit your starters. For me the #1 reason is to protect them from injury. The last thing you want is for Aaron Rodgers or another very important player on the team to go down with an injury in a meaningless game. Also, not a bad way to give some other guys valuable reps and experience that could potentially improve their play in future meaningful games. Some people will say "play Rodgers, just don't take any chances". Well what kind of offense are you running to do that? Is that "safe mode" really that good for the offense? Feels more like an exercise in futility than giving the starters valuable snaps. I would rather see mostly backups playing their ***es off like their jobs depended on it. [/QUOTE]
