Why? It's a strategic decision. They've earned the right to be able to lie down due to their performance in their 15 previous games. Since they have nothing tangible to gain, there's no reason to come out full steam ahead. It's no different than the Saints chilling today. If you have a problem with the Bengals you surely have a problem with the Saints...or you're a bitter Texans fan pissed your team didn't take care of business this year.

And what's the point of coming out with an effective gameplan that the Jets can prepare for the Playoffs? The Eagles now know what they need to prep for the rematch with the Cowboys. The Bengals made sure that luxury wasn't extended to the Jets.

Exactly. Texans only have to blame themselves. If they didn't choke against the Colts and Titans, 2 games they should've won, and didn't get their asses beat in their other losses, they would be in the playoffs. But Texans didn't take care of business. And the Jets deserved to be in the playoffs over the choking Texans.
