[QUOTE="PackerfaninCarolina, post: 809533, member: 9364"] In the case of getting a number one seed or first round bye at all, usually coaches will wait until week 17 it seems like before they start playing backups and resting starters. Sometimes it'll be backups a full game, other times it might be for a half. Thing is in playoff preparation you need all hands on deck for when the playoffs start, so playing them in a limited role in the season finale or so usually is the right move. In our current situation, every player outside of Rodgers, Alexander and Aaron Jones has no guarantee they're going to stay in Green Bay. That means they really have to come out playing to win to try and preserve their roster spot if they don't want to get released at the end of this season. Course several of them may be already gone no matter what they do these last two games, but still, that's where we're at. The coaches too are still looking to show they can prepare a team to win. Most of them know they likely won't be here next season, but they want to show their potential new bosses they'd be valuable additions to their coaching staff. As Rodgers gives the team the best shot to win, I fully expect he's going to start these last couple games, and because there is definitely much more at play with the future of this team than just draft picks. Not to mention while there may be some benefit to seeing what Kizer can do, our next HC will likely have his own feelings on the guy and whether or not he wants him regardless of how he would perform in these last two games.
