Plenty of time to rest when we rap up the "Bye Week" for best record.
Not until then....Pour it ON!

Yeah, if they want to go one and done.

Every time this team has rested players, they have not sniffed the Super Bowl. Coincidence? Maybe, but I have never liked that stuff. Resting players and pulling starters is for the Colts.

Yeah, 'cause giving player three-plus weeks off before their first playoff game has always worked so well for the Colts.

It's no coincidence the year they won the SuperBowl they were a wildcard team.

Yeah, resting starters before you've clinched the number one seed would be REALLY smart.

Patriots still need 2 wins to clinch the number one seed.
