I really believe teams shouldn't rest offensive starters leading up to the playoffs. Just look at the Colts from the 2000s. Every year, they used to clinch early and rest Manning and their top players in the last week or last couple weeks of the season. And in the playoffs, the Colts would always play well below their regular season standards. But there was one year they didn't. That was in 2006. The Colts were still playing for a first round bye in the last week of the season so they played all of their starters. Guess what season ended up being the only year Manning won a Super Bowl with the Colts? Of course injuries happen but keeping starters sharp is critical for playoff success.
