As a Dolphins fan, that 2007 Super Bowl win over the Patsies got my respect. I'll root for the Giants against any team other than my Dolphins. That was the low point for the franchise by a mile. The team barely squeaked out 1 win in overtime late in the season to go 1-15. They almost became both the only perfect season team *and* the only 0-16 team (at the time). That horror was coupled with watching hated division rivals march dominantly to almost a perfect season. Only a breathtaking SB win by the Giants stopped the horror of seeing the 17-0 Dolphins topped a 19-0 Patsies. What a relief 😆
Resting your starters is honestly a good idea because of injury. I think the real problem is when you play it too relaxed with your starters during practice.

I really think starters should play the first half. Maybe not at 100% effort, but they should play. If I was coach I would pull them for the second half. It's just a matter of routine and getting in the football mindset every week. Of course now there is a week off before every superbowl some teams are bound to get out of rhythm. But at least both teams suffer from this problem.

8:17 "A lot of great things we can be doing today and the best one is kicking their ass." What a great line. God I love football
I think if your playoff chances are so locked in that you can rest the starters the last two weeks you should give your starters some reps in the last regular season game, with some preseason-like directives for protecting themselves. Ideally you'd want to do this in the second-to-last regular season game so if a player gets a short term injury they should be available in time for the playoffs, but if you have a bye and the opportunity to rest starters for two regular season games, you're talking about almost a month they might not be playing at game speed at all--football is all of five months if you go deep into the playoffs and you're off for seven months. I definitely think taking your starters out for weeks 17, 18, and the playoff bye is a recipe for disaster, even among the most tightly-honed and hard-practicing teams.

Why not have them play a half or even just a quarter in those games? Then that way they’re sharp enough to shake off any potential rust and they wouldn’t be a rusty team for too long at least. They’d have a balance there so they don’t have to necessarily catch up very much to game speed.
As a Packers fan I was super worried when they rested their starters before the Giant killers game, and it unfortunately didn't work out as a strategy. I'm not sure what to think of it, but with how easy it is to get injured I think the pros outweigh the cons

Going undefeated is a cool idea but a lot of times that first loss helps more than it hurts. It takes that pressure off to complete a perfect seasom and brings the team back down to earth and shows them they can be beaten so they still have to put in the work.

11-0 is undoubtedly the most painful Steelers moment since their Super Bowl XLV loss where they nearly came back from an 18 point lead.

1990 Giants and 49ers should get honorable mention. BOTH started 10-0 and were headed to face off but both teams lost the week before.

This video proves that no matter what people say about the NFC East, that division has held its own when it matters. I love it!
I remember in preseason 2011 reading sports illustrated and they predicted that the Packers would start 13-0 and their only loss would be to Kansas City and would finish with a 15-1 record. I kept that bold prediction in the back of my mind as the season went along. After week 11 many experts said the Giants would be the only team left on their schedule that could beat them. After the Packers won a dogfight on a walkoff field goal, everyone thought that it would be smooth sailing to 16-0. And then came the Kansas City game. Everyone except me in my football pool picked the Packers to win that game but I remembered SI's bold prediction 4 months earlier and took Kansas City. Sure enough, SI's prediction was right. It made it so much sweeter when my Giants played against them again in the divisional round and won soundly.

I think if you are in such a good position with your record after 15 to 16 weeks that you have locked up a bye week, you have to rest the players a bit. I would still have all of the starters begin the game as normal so that they stay in rhythm but no one would be playing longer than a half, and my QB would be out after 1 quarter. I would treat it similar to preseason.

I think if you just rest your starters for one game it’s fine, but if it’s two or more then letting them play at least the first half is probably best. Even with the injury risk it’s still worth it to not make your players rusty
The Giants were also extremely close to ending the Patriots, Packers, and Panthers undefeated seasons. All 3 of those games ended with the score 38-35.
I’ll never forget that shoestring tackle by Big Ben. Destroyed me as a Colts fan. Great play

@Fries considering the Steelers went all the way and won all of their postseason games (besides that Colts one) by 2 scores minimum, the Colts likely go all the way and win it all. In Payton’s limited action against the NFC champion Seahawks, he went 9 of 12 for 116 yards. His backup was 22 of 31 for 237 yards and a TD. They likely gash them through the air and that takes Alexander out of the game, forcing Hasselbeck to win it with his arm. The only QBs that typically win a shootout against Manning are guys the likes of Brady and Brees.
Been a steeler fan since I was 3 years old. That 2020 season we had absolutely no business being 11-0 I still remember claypool bragging on Twitter about never losing and I just knew something bad was going to happen that year at some point and right off the bat vs the browns in the first playoff game that snap that flew over bens had already sealed the game for me and it just started

Great vid. Appreciate the work.
For the 07 Patriots, wished you had mentioned that they beat the Giants in wk 17 but barely with a score of 38-35. I remember that game well since it's the only one that I know of that was broadcasted on almost every network that broadcasts NFL games.

NBC and CBS also televised it with the NFL Network. Fox didn't televise it probably because of the rules at the time of the AFC road games being on CBS, and NFC road games on Fox.
I believe resting your starters for the last game of the season is beneficial, I wouldn’t bench them for anymore than that.
As a Steelers fan that 11-0 start and season is something I'd love to forget
I just got out of surgery and am still in the Hospital and you uploading just made my day so much better thank you kto
Great video, didn’t think you were ill at all which shows good work. Kudos for calling Washington the Redskins in your video. It was their name, it is a historic fact.
Now if he brought up teams that went 9-0 or 10-0 way more teams would probably have won the SB but yeah those giants defenses were really impressive in the two runs held other teams to 13 PPG and not one team scored more then 20 on them for the 8 games they played
Love the longer vids!

It’s so weird to me how historically having a dominant regular season also translated to dominate postseason but now it seems like it doesn’t matter at all
“The Washington Redskins” always brings a tear. #HTTR
The Miami victory over the Bears in '85 to kill their perfect season was a stark difference to the previous year when a phantom Defensive Holding Call against Ronnie Lott came at a critical time in the game that enabled Pittsburgh to retain posession and kick the winning FG and end the 49ers shot at an undefeated season. In contrast, Miami kicked the Bears ass in the Bears only loss. It was nowhere near close as the score indicates. There wasn't a time watching that game did I think Miami wasn't murdering da' Bears And Da' Bears were lucky they didn't play Miami again in their super bowl. The 49ers were robbed against Pittsburgh and well, Miami was a better team in '84 than the following year when they beat the Bears. So the 49ers dismantling of the Dolphins in SB XIX counts as the bigger of the two games. Both owned each other in each's championship year. But had they not called holding on Lott on 4th down they stopped em. 49er ball, and as Duane Kuiper says, This Game Is Over!

Maybe. I think the Dolphins would have had a decent shot at beating Chicago again, but the question is whether the Dolphins would have been able to adapt to the Bears' changes to their defensive plan against Marino. You are absolutely right that the Dolphins kicked our rear ends badly. The score was 31-7 at half-time. But one of the reasons for this (and I give Shula all the credit in the world for this) was because he took advantage of Duper against WIlber Marshal (I'm pretty sure that was the matchup; I remember it was a WR against a linebacker but don't quote me on this), and they were able to score several times on this. In the second half, Ryan made adjustments and the Bears rebounded, outscoring Miami 17-7 in the second half. But as you said, it was way too late for them to come back. Still, I think it would have been interesting to see what happens on a neutral field where neither team has a fan advantage. It was still fun, though, and I'm glad for the one we have. And I'll be honest, I share Gary Fenick's sentiment that he saw the Miami game as a wakeup call, and they took themselves more seriously after that game was over. If the Bears had gone 16-0, would they still have swept through the playoffs like they did, or would they have gotten tripped up? Given what I saw in their attitudes before the Miami game as opposed to after, I'm not so optimistic.
Another great video!
Love your video man
Thank you so much for saying the 1991 Redskins, and not saying football team or commanders call because that’s not what they were back then, unlike all these other channels that try to be do-gooders and say so (*kerhumph* TPS)

@Fries Yeah TPS can have a pretty good idea for a video (top 25 players in the NFL for example) and then completely butcher it with boring commentary. I also don't understand how they have a million subs considering the views they get on their videos isn't all that impressive.
I remember where I was when the Giants beat the Patriots. My father’s side of the fam lives in Boston. So they came to Brooklyn to watch the Super Bowl at my crib. They were talking so much shyt. But with every quarter that passed I saw how nervous they got. And when Plaxico caught that TD I knew it was over. Man what a team.
Man I love you. You are so underrated and awesome
As a long time Eagles fan I watched Andy Reid "rest his starters" multiple years before playoffs and then lay eggs in multiple playoff games and NFC championship games. The Giants have proved that a team with momentum rolling into the playoffs can beat the team with the best record and stats.
I once thought the 2019 Packers was the most overrated team of all-time, but then the 2020 Steelers happened.

If u actually paid attention that season most people knew that team wasn’t doing anything in the playoffs we weren’t favors to win that playoff game according to nfl fans
Resting starters has always been a stupid move to me. I get that you don’t want to get guys hurt before the playoffs, but you gotta at least give them a series or two to play. Also, you should play to win EVERY game. Regardless of how “meaningless” it may seem.
Keep up the good work man
That 1991 Washington team they showed at 8:18 was very dominant, and haven't been good since. Same thing goes for the Detroit Lions team Washington beat in the NFC Championship Game that year. The Lions win over the Cowboys a week earlier is the only Lions playoff win over the last 64 seasons.
