I see you aren't going to address the point I made.Those team that feel they got screwed can file a complaint but it won't go anywhere because of the long history of letting playoff teams protect starters in the last game.
I did a word search in my file and didn't find anything with tank but I didn't think I would. When I do find it it will probably be worded like all teams have to make ever effort to win or something like that..

I honestly don't think there is any rule on the books. If there was, the time honored tradition of resting starters would have been called out a long time ago.
One more try.... Why shouldn't the fans, players and coaches of the team the Browns pushed out of the playoffs due to their win over a second string Steelers team be just as upset? You're going to have to better than 'just because'.
The "integrity of the game" either matters or it doesn't. Period.
Be fascinating to see the reaction had the Cowboys been in the FT's position Sunday night.
