We still could've gotten RJF, Williams, and Haggans a handful of snaps over the course of the game on early downs to give guys a breather and not over burden the guys on the front 7.
For the past two seasons our defense has faded at the end of the regular season and the lack of rotation has been a big part of that.
The Giants to me have proven that it's best to rotate guys up front and keep everyone fresher throughout the game and season.
Yeah, I don't disagree. We've got to do some more rotating this year. Our OLB depth should be quite good, and our DE depth looks promising assuming Tank and Dial can get healthy. You can't rely on our front-seven to play every snap, and there's no need to. If guys are fresher, they can make more of an impact when they are in. Though I'm not sure you could get a healthy Justin Smith and Ray McDonald off the field if you wanted to....
