It also might help dak as he can sit back and observe the game for a week.

If they have nothing to play for they'd be stupid not to play Romo in the finale. He may have to play in the playoffs. Why would you want his first game back in over a year be with everything on the line? Let him shake off whatever rust there is in a game that means nothing.

Football over feelings.

Dak had his worst game coming off the bye. It wasn't a coincidence, he even stated that waiting the extra week was difficult and threw him off. If you rest him in week 17 he's off for three weeks. I don't think that's good.

We can afford the really low risk of injury because we got Romo to lead us to a Super Bowl if necessary.

I might consider resting Zeke and at the very least playing Dak the first half.

Remember when we did this and and our last game before playoffs was with the Skins at their field during a player memory celebration they were having at half time (Riggins was part of it). Hershall Walker was our starting RB etc. They blew us out and it hurt the moral quite big. We lost a lot of mojo and easily lost in the playoffs I think. At least put a team in there to give a good game, but mojo and moral are important going into playoffs.
