I can't wait for Week 18 and stamping on their damn throats, ending their playoff hopes and taking back the South but Week 17 is the priority.

Like NYC says, play the starters, get a big lead then let the #2's play. We've got the big mo, no need to out-think ourselves.

Truth. Fisher did a good job of stoking the hate and discontent back in the day. It lingers like the stench of the dead who have been left out in a swamp in the middle of summer. Lol

To these nostrils, it smells worse. That was a miserable walk back to the parking lot after that 2000 Championship game, listening to those a hole Tack fans. They were not gracious.

While i hope they win, it ll be a disaster if key players get hurt during what is essentially a meaningless game. Leave the emotion out of this and save the emotion for when it really counts in week 18.

Good god no.

Let’s say you sit them at halftime and Jags lose. Then they also lose to tacks week 18.

However, you realize the Jags could have had a WC spot had they just beaten Houston. Then what?

I'd rather be at full strength for a game that I know 100% for sure gets me a home playoff game against a team that I've already beaten than risk the chance of further injury to win a game that might get me a wildly (pun intended) improbable shot at a Wild Card game on the road against one of the Division winners in potentially crappy winter weather. Assuming that the week 17 win weakens our roster with avoidable injuries.
