Resting starters for the Carolina game

Yes, thr O-line is pretty banged up right now.

This is going to be a tough call for Payton and the Coaching Staff. They'll figure it out.

I look for Drew (last time he was inactive) to be active with having Taysom and Teddy ready to go. I think he will play to get 4,000 yards and then exit to a standing O. Teddy will det a lot of playing time. The rest that need rest will get it and we will still beat Carolina!

Get healthy and rested for a playoff run.

Brees has just a bit more to get to 4k yards this year and was hoping for a pass or two but at the same time not a big deal.

Only can rest so many starters though, depending on depth at the position.

Just no.

Starters the first half, then clear the bench.

I hope we don't do that. Hell I wish we could sign a bunch of oline off the street and let the starters all rest.

I mean I agree, which is why I said I wish we could sign some people off the street. You can only rest so many peeps depending on depth.
