Well timed bye week

[Kage]

I normally like the bye week a little later in the year to kind of rest up for the final push.

This year I think its at the perfect time.

Barring any injuries in the Commanders game, our team should basically be 100% after the bye.

Depending how we play this week;

(good) we can build off of that and see what is working best for us.
(bad) we can compare our last 2 games to see what we did differently and roll with what works.

I know that is basically what every teams bye week is for, but I feel its at a crucial point in our season.

I would definitely sit Lee this week and bring him back after the bye

Another bad thing is that we seemingly always come out flat after a bye (or resting players last week of season before playoffs!).

At least we open up after the bye with the Titans, so less than our best might still be good enough

On the downside, looking a few games down the road, Philly gets a bye week before our trip up there. I think it will be extremely tough to win up there so the next two games are very important IMO.

When we're sitting at 3-3, every game is going to be important for the rest of the season. I'm not too worried about our schedule outside of the Saints game.
