In the interest of clarification I do not agree with national notable blowhards, like Peter King, when they say that the NFL should step in regarding late season tank jobs. On the contrary, teams that position themselves to make the playoffs with a week or two left in the season should do whatever they think is in the best interest of their franchise.
There is no whining if you team doesn't make it in to the playoffs because the Colts play someone named Curtis Painter or the Bungals start JT OSullivan. If your team doesn't make the playoffs it's their fault. Win more.
My point is that if you are interested in winning the Super Bowl keep your foot on the gas, go for the jugular, keep feeding the beast, a stitch in time saves nine.
The facts are the facts, teams that ease off on the throttle lose in the playoffs. Look it up. The Giants had nothing to play for two years ago and put forth such a heroic effort, against a team that many feel was the best of the decade (mostly the aforementioned blowhard and Belicheat Sychophant Peter King), that they proved to themselves that they could win the Super Bowl in a loss.
Go back to the Ninties. Ask the Broncos whether they preferred going hard throughout or resting their starters during those meaningless games.
Mark this down, NO team that mails it in this weekend will win the Super Bowl.
