so do NFl temas basically give up when they can't make the palyoffs and do teams go easy if they have already made it into the playoffs and rest big players

i'd like to know for my picks,are they still playing for money and pride or do they have one foot in the titty bars already

it depends.

A few years ago teams like the Colts use to go easy once they were in but I doubt that's going to be the case with any team this year.

The only team at this point that could rest players is the Packers and it ain't going to happen as they are going for 16-0.

No other team can yet rest players even if they wanted as the final playoff picture isn't clear yet ( no clear lead on AFC byes, and the Saints can still catch the 49ers for the second NFC bye week).

As for the bad teams, none of them are going to give up as a lot of coachs are playing for their jobs.

Things  might change the last week when the picture gets clearer but expect every team to play 100% next week-end...

 

 

ok thanks for that,i'm surpised the packers would go full pelt if they already have it in the bag but i guess 16-0 is worth trying for,as you say the colts blew mannings chance of a clean sweep didn't they i seem to remember at the time,i still don't understand that,if i am right in remebering of course
