If I were them, I'd sit all the starters, treat it like the first pre-season game. They may not have the bye in the playoffs, but they can take a bye in week 17 against the Browns.

Ben, Woodley and Pouncey, do any of them play much over the next two weeks?

they could certainly treat it that way, but with the ravens having a tough game against the bengals I doubt we actually rest anyone

I would sit any dinged starter against the Rams. Our backups should be able to beat them.

And even if we somehow end up with the 6 seed, that might be better than the 5. If we get the 5 we have to play at Denver. That means getting Tebowed.

They need to treat it that way.

Who knows, Tomlin doesn't have the stones to tell Ben to sit his butt on the bench during a 35-7 game or a 20-3 game.

I guess it's Ben's decision.

Then someone above Tomlin needs to make the decision for him.
