We don’t have to beat houston if tacks lose a game.  It comes down to the week 18 game against Tennessee for the division and a home playoff game.  If tacks lose Saturday, the game against Houston for us next week is indisputably meaningless for us aside from needing to break their streak over us.  Only week 18 matters.  Do the math.  If we lose to tinhorns but beat tacks we end up 8-9.  If tacks lose to either to Houston or Dallas and also to us they also wind up 8-9.  We win division on head to head tie breaker since we swept them in this scenario.

Sorry I said week 17 ment 18.... I get what you're saying now Yes if Titans lose the Houston this weekend then technically next weekend doesn't matter... But I wouldn't rest anybody were playing hot You know what happens to first round by teams in the playoffs their track record just and all that good

Yeah I’m not saying don’t try to win and to rest everyone.  I agree with trying to win and keeping the momentum going, but I might pull guys in the 3rd quarter or at half time.  But regardless of all of that, if Tennessee loses on Saturday and we lose for whatever to the tinhorns next week, it will not have mattered regarding playoff implications.  Week 18 will almost certainly be a de facto playoff game against the tacks.
