Yeah, Brady threw a TD pass with 2 minutes left in the game. They don't take their foot off the gas.

Belichick is ruthless. Garrett, not so much.

Ummmm no. Resting players in week 3? That would be a bad idea.

Playmaker3128 · Sep 16, 2019

Not a chance. Any given Sunday. Blow them out take care of business and rest people in 4th

Can’t argue with that logic

Problem is I looked at their depth chart, and the only guy I can see doing anything here is Allen Hurns. If you go back to the 2018 offseason, he was really good. As in replace a not good Dez Bryant good. Kinda what we need now

Miami looks like they’re headed to an 0-16 season. The line opened at 16 and quickly shot to 21. Totally unheard of in the NFL.

I understand we’ll probably start everyone but if anyone is nursing an injury this would be a great time to rest them and I’d seriously consider resting our starters if the game gets out of hand early.

Sounds reasonable. At least in theory.

How bout we just win the damn game?

Losing Fitzpatrick isn't going to help that D any.

You only rest players when you know there is almost a 100% chance the other team cannot regain the lead. So if they are up by 30+ in the 4th, they probably will pull the guys who have some dings or injury issues. (Zach, Amari, etc) I could see that happening, Rush getting mopup too possibly.

If by stars you mean Heath and by rest you mean bench then yea

I honestly think our defense should feast this game. If we get a comfortable lead going into halftime I’d pull The offensive starters...losing Gallup has me a bit paranoid.

Of course not. You play the game as normal. This is not the pre season.

If we’re leading like 30-0 for example we should continue to leave our starters out there with risk for injury ?
Why??

This is an entirely different question than you began with?! You make it sound like, that because people say no to your original question, that they are also saying no to a completely different question.
The game starts 0-0. You treat the game as you would any other game. And you adjust from there. Simple.

No, they should consider how to best run up the score.

Yea

I think some just looked at the title assuming I meant to rest entire game.

My title was a lead in to my original post which lays it out.

By the 4th quarter all the scrubs should see playing time.

Look at you all! The Boys need to go into this game to do battle like any other contender. To not do so, could bite the Boys in the azz, I hope I don't have to say "I told you so" .
