It's not a bad strategy off a win in a game that isn't all that imporant, and easily winnable (such as the Jets), but we need this game too much to not play our best team.

You're assuming our best team includes someone who is battling a groin injury and thinking he's hurting the team when he's playing.

And others on defense who aren't 100% who have fully capable backups to handle the daunting Cardinals offense.

Great point, actually. And not one I overlooked either, just a great illustration of something important about my statement.

The best team does not include Santana Moss if his groin injury is preventing him from making decent cuts.
