What if going into week 18, Miami Beats Baltimore the previous week and a Baltimore loss in Week 16 against SF Clinching the #1 Seed for Miami essentially making this game against buffalo a throwaway.

How would you approach this if you were McDaniels? Would you play your starters? For how long would you play the starters if you decided to play them?

The only real kicker is that if you are afraid of Buffalo, a win against Buffalo could knock them out of the playoffs, even if they won the previous week.

In this scenario, since we have a bye, I’d rest everyone.  I really just don’t want to play the Bills in consecutive weeks.  So if that’s off the table, I am more concerned with winning it all.

McDaniel has been resting slightly injured players all year, so it would be more of the same.  But you can't sit everyone, and I don't think it would be good to have guys taking two full weeks off.  Probably gets treated like a late preseason game.
