thats just a cliche....it has nothing to do with reality

I don't call it cliche, Giants didn't rest and go on to beat a 16-0 team in the biggest game ever.

Colts rested and only went on to the SB 1 out of 4 times.

I think the only reason people want to rest is to prevent injuries but injuries happen. The team is already sitting players with injuries and most not on IR will be back in time. Saints will be in good shape by then and have a week off already and just need to get hot and stay hot.
