ya_boi_j Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 This is why you do not risk playing starters in meaningless games. Both starting corners already out. Hopefully it's nothing serious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romfal Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 I agree with Smitty, must play everyone at least one half, we get hurt on the first drive, stuff happens... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slamee101 Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 It was stupid, and I honestly feel like Smitty shouldn't have done it. I hope it doesn't come back to bite us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroadwayBlueBleeder Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 We've seen what happens with too much rest, if the starters were rested for 2 weeks and came out rusty in the playoffs everyone would complain that they should have played.Theres nothing that can be done now.

ya_boi_j Posted December 30, 2012 Author Share Posted December 30, 2012 Oh well. Only thing that will ease this is a win. Hopefully the line can hold up and not let Matt throwing arm get pulled back too many more times Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xSICKxWITHxITx Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Yeah great idea to just let our starters set out for two weeks. Brilliant! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ya_boi_j Posted December 30, 2012 Author Share Posted December 30, 2012 Yeah great idea to just let our starters set out for two weeks. Brilliant!it goes both ways. If players come out rusty after sitting 2 weeks then it's on them and the coaches. It's called poor preparation. We didn't even have a bye last year and look at what happened. People are putting together much in the whole players being rusty thing. It's all about the preparation leading to the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ya_boi_j Posted December 30, 2012 Author Share Posted December 30, 2012 So to everyone that thinks it was not stupid to play the starters. What point was proven Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slamee101 Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 So to everyone that thinks it was not stupid to play the starters. What point was provenI want to know that too, but don't expect any of them to speak up now.Ugh... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ya_boi_j Posted December 30, 2012 Author Share Posted December 30, 2012 I want to know that too, but don't expect any of them to speak up now.Ugh...they are quick to call us stupid and say we know nothing but yet we had very valid points on why not to play the starters. Now they lose to a 6-9 team. What excuse will be made now because this definitely wasn't a momentum gainer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falcons007 Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 I said all week long this game doesn't mean anything and Momentum is over rated in the NFL. Why risk injuries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butudontseeme™ Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 I still think it was the right decision to let the starters play. If you let these guys have off for 3 weeks, they are bound to come out and play rusty, and that is not necessarily because of lack of preparation or intensity. The injuries sustained today will likely not impact us very much come playoff time. Dunta will be back and if Abe isn't, he'll b back in the second playoff game. I'm more worried about these guys not showing up for so called "meaningless" games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butudontseeme™ Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 I said all week long this game doesn't mean anything and Momentum is over rated in the NFL. Why risk injuries.Considering the way the playoff bye week has seemed more of a hindrance than a help in recent years, I would say momentum is definitely not overrated. Check out how the last two/three superbowl winners have "gotten hot at the right time". As far as Mike Smith goes, he was in a damned if you do damned if you don't situation. If no key players get injured today, he looks like a genius to some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
