If the Eagles win and clinch the division on Sunday would you sit out last game?

Everybody.

A 17th game is too many especially when Dallas will have to win three straight road playoff games.
My opinion is to keep everyone working and practicing. Start everyone for one series O and D - full practice week! Pull the key must have to win in the playoffs after the first o/d series. Don’t tell them in advance, have them practice to play and play one series or one quarter

Who do you want to sit out against Washington? Nevermind Camp Cupcake complaints and soft team stuff. We all saw how tired and beat up this team is. They need rest. Period. Give me some guys who shouldn't see the field. Starting with DLaw and Micah. Rest Dak and Lamb. Who else ? Should we bring up the whole practice squad ?
I would play TP to get his 11yds for a 1000 then sit him

Everyone except Nashon Wright and Kelvin Joseph. Hopefully they play and get injured just enough to miss the rest of the season so we are forced to try someone else at that CB position. I can’t imagine anyone being worse.

Also the safeties. Kearse and Wilson look a little beat up. Let's see Israel Mukuamu and Markquese Bell out there just for fun.

It depends on playoff implications for other teams and what teams could get in with a Dallas win or loss. Why not go for the win if it helps bring in an opponent that has a better shot at winning the wild card rounds than Washington?

Impossible. You can only sit out a few guys.
Not necessarily. We can simply make a bunch of normal starters inactive and the guys that have been inactive this season will be activated. 53 (or is it 54 now?) man roster with 22 starting positions, I trust we could find a way to trot out a 2nd stringer at the majority of positions. What is the active game day roster, 46? 46-22 is 24. Yeah I know there will still need to be a few starters playing but still.

I was considering doing a breakdown of every position where a backup could potentially start over the regular starter but I'm lazy lol. Offensive line for example off the top of my head, we wouldn't have enough players to have 5 backups starting.

i'd rest more defense than i would offense. The offense still has too many slow starts for my liking. The defense held this team down for the first half, and then a bunch caught the flu...Micah, D-law, LVE, Diggs, Kearse, they need all the rest they can get. Only people i'd rest on the offense is pollard and that's cuz he's most recently injured. Zeke can keep playing...might be his last regular season game with the cowboys

We should play everyone.

We haven't had a good win against a full strength team trying to win in a good while.

I'm afraid the last month for us has been like a MLB player warming up in the batters box with a wiffle ball bat, instead of a weighted bat.

We're about to face some REAL team's in the playoffs who won't be starting freaking Josh Dobbs or Gardener Minshew

Winter is coming


Like that GOT reference
