What teams will be playing their starters (1 Viewer)

[On The Rocks]

We changed our league rules this year. We started a waiver wire. $5.00 per move and we have a "mini-season". All the ww money goes to the top 3 finishers over the final 4 weeks of the season. Kind of a great way to keep everyone interested right to the bitter end.

I am in this thing and I can still win it but I have little to know room for error and need to make sure I only play players that will be in for all four quarters.

Can we come up with a list of teams that we can expect to play their starters to win for all 60 minutes?

I have not looked at any of the playoff scenarios yet. Can you tell me if the Giants were to beat the Patriots (yeah...I know...but I don't think it is that absurd of a possibility) on Saturday will it have any affect on the Redskins?

No. Washington needs to win to get in. Or if they lose they need both Minnesota and New Orleans to lose. Its set up nice for these 3 teams to all play hard seeing as New Orleans plays at 1 and they must win to stay alive and then Minnesota and Washington each play at 4 needing to win no matter what happens in any of the games before them.

TEN will as well!

INDY, NE ( other than history) Jax in the AFC and

NYG, TB, Dall, GB, Seat have nothing to play for in the NFC.

Pit needs SD to lose to OAK to improve their playoff seeding so they are likely resting starters in the 2nd half as well unless they are scoreboard watching, can win the game at hand, and SD is struggling with OAK ( Both games kick off at the same time) so in other words, don't expect a full workload from either Pitt or SD

everyone else ought to play their regulars unless of course they decide to look at some guys for next year

Good Luck, trying to figure out week 17 is the suxor

So SD has to play to win, as does Pitt....so, if both games are close, the starters will stay in, right?

Sadly (going against LT), I believe so.Did the PIT/BAL game get moved to 4:00 from 1:00 ???I could swear I looked at the schedule on Tuesday, and knew that that game would be decided before the Chargers hit the field.

Anybody still doing survivor stuff? Tough call this week with all of the playoff chaos.

Right now, NFL.com has both PIT & SD playing at 4:15 PM EST...

I'd be surprised if LT2 is still playing in the 4th quarter of this game. I think he plays the first half (if that) and then sits. Sproles has played well and Turner could also be in the mix if he's healthy enough to play. Sproles tore up Detroit, I think he can do the same to Oakland who are actually worse against the run. That and I think they'll be cautious with the whole hamstring "twinge" LT2 had in each of the last 2 games. If they were playing for home field I could see them going all out, but they are still going to play at home in the wild card round and on the road in the divisional playoffs (if they win in the wild card round).
