Who freaking cares. Win your games and you get in. I am a die hard cleveland homer and if they can't beat Cincinnati last week they don't deserve to get in....that's all they had to do. The Colts have the perogative to rest their players against Tennessee if if they want to. The vikings played the Redskins straight up at home last week and lost. They don't deserve it either. I have zero problem with INdy or Dallas resting their players if they desire. Win more games if you want to get in the playoffs and you don't have to worry.

If you win your games and get into the playoffs BEFORE the last week of the season, then you can do what you want.. After all how can you win the super bowl if you dont win your first playoff game ?

game means nothing to the cowboys. they have a bye, home field advantage thru the playoffs. if they played their starters and any got hurt, then a different thread would start, demanding to know why the boys played their starters in a meaningless game.
of course the game means everything to the skins, so i would assume they will be playing their hardest.

so, you're wade phillips. what would you do? i'd do exactly what he's doing, sit the starters.

yeah, but this is a game that will affect the standings. as opposed to all the one's that don't. where's the outrage?

i think we've now officially beaten this one to death.
