Heading into the last weeks, which backups will get the best chance to shine while starters rest for playoffs?

 
Not too many teams will be able to relax, except Tennessee maybe. But Dominick Rhodes might be a good one. With Addai dinged up and Indy facing Detroit and Jacksonville...and if you play in week 17, a Tennessee team that could be resting starters.

Chester Taylor - if Minnesota can knock off Arizona, and Chicago loses to New Orleans, Taylor might be a good start vs Atlanta in Week 16.

Depends on what happens with Tenn vs Hou and Pitt vs Bal.If Pittsburgh wins this week, the Tenn vs Pitt game in Week 16 could have homefield throughout the playoffs on the line.
 
Maybe Chris Henry Tenn RB
Anyone else think Ganther is the one to own in TEN? Henry has no carries this season. At least Ganther has 5 carries (when the games get out of control) and had a few receptions in week 12. Haven't heard much, but i'm thinking ganther has at least an equal opportunity to see action in week 17.

Yes...thanks, I'm aware of that. He was talking about in the 'last weeks' though, and from what I see the Titans are about the only team that has a chance to relax, but you're right, it would not be this week and totally dependent on what happens this week. However, being the prognosticator that I am, I predict Baltimore beats Pittsburgh and the Titans beat Houston to make the Pittsburgh/Titan game rather meaningless for the Titans, but a huge game for the Steelers.
