We just lost our best D player on a non-contact play when we had game won already. At what point do we start worrying about needlessly leaving players out there? Or do we?
Can't rest anyone until we get the bye for the first playoff game.
There was 3 minutes left in a 23 point game. They weren't coming back even if we had a practice squad in.
How do we gets practice squad players dressed to come in, let alone the other active roster players who didn't dress? Only 45 players dress and that numbers includes a punter, kicker and long snapper. Want to talk about expanding the rosters, you would have a valid point, but talking get about pulling all starters is not actually possible considering we dree only 8 DB's' and 7-8 OLmen.

Peterson is our best defensive player, but Mathieu was our 2nd best.
We can't play scared, especially when we haven't clinched a first round bye yet.
There was 3 minutes left when HB got hurt. Taking him and PP out at that point isn't playing scared. It's playing smart.Peterson is our best defensive player, but Mathieu was our 2nd best.

This game was over once DB got the pick 6, their 78 yard TD bomb be damned. Wouldn't have mattered squat to sit some guys at that point but especially after the FG put us up by 23 with mere minutes remaining. But what's done is done.When we're up by 24 in the second half on Green Bay, Then you can think about it.

No one said pull the starters but you take out your marquee players. HB, PP, CC, FR shouldn't have seen the field after it got under 5 minutes to go. I'm quite sure we have 2 DB and 2 DL to bring in for a few snaps. We do have players who play the scout team, no? Use them(not the PS players but roster players who aren't starters).

Hindsight makes you look so smart.
If you know there is an injury, that is obviously different.
To me, this compares to throwing the ball on a 3rd and 2 when you are up by 7 points with only 2 minutes to go. Yeah, the safer play is to run, but that isn't the nature of this team, nor do I want it to be.

Then you only have to look at the Carolina/NYG game yesterday to see that even that isn't safe.
