because i no ppl will be too dumb to get what i mean, i'll clarify by saying we will get a bye week for the first round and we wont be playing for that round.

Funny on so many levels...let me help clarify your clarification.

"Because I Know people will be too dumb to get what I mean, I'll clarify by saying we will get a bye week for the first round and won't be playing for that round".

FYI: A first round bye does count as playing, it's just a win.

/sigh. Stay in school.

some1 dumb enough to nitpick, u guys see what i deal with,

if i wanted to waste more of my life clarifying what i wanted to clarify i would have done it but i figured that people would have got the idea when i said "hey let me clarify" that i didnt feel like dealing with bullshit off topic like you're doing now.

eh, I'm ok with resting the guys that need it, but i think the rest of the starters at least need to play a half all the way through the final week.

Eh I'd rather play the whole thing with everybody, and I guess if some players need rest but we've seen too many times teams who clinch early and rest their players the last week of the season, so by the time the divisional playoffs come around, they are 3 weeks removed from playing time.

Chicago rested their players in 05 to close out the regular season when they had the 2nd seed, one and done.

Indy rested their players in 05 from the 15th game, one and done.

those are off the top of my head, theres definitely more that I don't care to think of right now.

    • Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
    • Well, we got our answer on Army today.
    • Not a chance the SEC could compete with the NFL.  In the large cities that are not in the Southeast, (LA, NYC, Chicago, SF) College football is an afterthought.
