Andy Reid is like 100-2 coming off a bye week (regular and post season) so, after having 1 week off you can be great, but two weeks off you turn to rust? I think it all depends on the players. I cant see Brady getting rusty with two weeks off.
That all being said, I wish the Eagles would have left Foles in long to get more in game action with the bye next week.
I am more specifically referring to whether you play your players during the last game of the season.
I think when you sit players too long, it takes some time to get back into game speed. There's also the psychological factor of what the Steelers did...sit their best players with a shot at the No. 1 seed? The whole point is to keep improving each week, build and learn and never stop competing. Why play scared?

Ravens have missed 3 straight as well. But before then both teams had made the playoffs 6 out of 7 years. They may no longer be stalwarts, but have been in relative recency.Simple Torture wrote:Team Skitch; they've missed 3 straight postseasons.

So many teams need QBs and so many QBs could be available in both free agency and the draft that this may be a futile exercise.durdencommatyler wrote:Do we have a thread for predicting QB landing spots next year?

Meh, it's conceivable.
the Lions went 2-30 between 2008 and 2009.
33-111 between 2001-2009

I once did a project in looking at the worst eras in NFL post-merger, and the Matt Millen Lions came in at #1 worst with a bullet. I did that before the Browns' last two seasons of disaster, so maybe they're the worst now.Electromatic wrote:Did they really? I knew they were bad, I never realized how bad.

I just thought it'd be fun to predict. Just a little game to pass the off season with. *shrugs*
