Now that the 1 seed and the bye is more than likely locked up by the Chiefs. I think we should really consider sitting players with injuries. Does it really matter where we play? Heinz field is empty, there’s no advantage there. I’d much rather have a healthier, rested team going forward.

Hell, if Cleveland wins the division and we end up going there to play.. we’ll have a lot of fans there and essentially have homefield advantage. Same goes for Indianapolis and Tennessee. Playing at Heinz is not important this year. Start sitting guys and get the team ready for a playoff run.

If the Cleveland game doesn’t determine the division win or the bye, Rudolph starts and TJ and Heyward sit.

Absolutely... if that last Cleveland game is meaningless then yeah absolutely rest everyone important

Id say straight up forfeit but the league would murder us... let the backups play just in case... cancel all practice before friday and give tge team some time off
