Yeah but the author makes a good point, resting starters is a miserable idea. Look how it worked out for the teams that tried it this season (Dallas, Indy).
Teams shouldn't be doing it because it kills momentum, and from a fan perspective the week 17 product isn't nearly as good as the first 16 weeks.
