I mean, sitting starters does give more reps to guys he may want to give reps to. It is a questionable thing since it's kind of inseparable this season, the difference between sitting starters for purpose of getting reps to younger guys and sitting starters to chase #1 pick, since there's so many teams vying for it that even one more loss could make all the difference.

I dunno how I feel about it really.

Just to outline the exact scenario from 2 years ago where nobody batted an eye

#1 seeded 12-3 Ravens lost to 8-7 Browns after starting second string team (and announcing it). Browns and Steelers both finished 9-7, Browns won tiebreaker. Ravens then beat the Browns 27-6 in playoffs when using real team (Ravens made the Superbowl that year fwiw)

Iirc Ravens were on a 10 or 11 game winstreak prior to sitting their starters or it had just ended. They definitely had a lengthy streak going

Gotcha. That was my first season so I probably was not even paying attention to all of tgat as I was still finding my footing. If its an apology you want, well, I apologize.
