Players that might sit out/be rested this week (1 Viewer)

List them all here.

First one that comes to mind for me is Denver players. Playing late, are there scenarios that would cause them to take the foot off the pedal, having known the outcome of the early games?

I thought Denver still has something to play for ? Am I wrong?

I don't see it. Denver still fighting for the all important home field for the playoffs.

I don't know..Its why I'm asking. IF the Pats somehow lose the early game, would that not allow Denver to get their game under control and sit the 2nd half? Again, i'm not sure of many of the scenarios and was hoping people could compile a list for everyone to help out.

Pats beat Denver, so unless there's a 3-way tie, NE could still get the 2 seed ahead of Denver if NE won their last game and Denver loses both.

Coach John Fox confirmed the Broncos have no plans to rest Peyton Manning down the stretch.

The Broncos currently hold the AFC's No. 2 seed, but they need to win out to stay ahead of third-seeded New England. So Manning will play despite two "easy" games against the Browns and Chiefs. At age 36 and coming off a year out of football, Peyton ranks fourth in passer rating, sixth in passing yards and third in touchdowns through 14 weeks.

Luckily it appears that all of the top seeds still have something to play for this week. We may see some players come off if games get out of hand, hopefully that would also mean the players got their stats
