This is the best bet. Don't change the routine too much.
3 weeks of sitting is an awfully long time.
We come out flat and this forum would blow up with how everyone but Shanahan knew sitting wasn't the right idea.

I agree with all of those plus I would probably add Greenlaw and Deebo. AA and Hargrave are probably already out anyway.

This is a top heavy team. I get the "being rusty" argument, but at a lot of positions their replacements are so much worse it's not even close. Avoiding injuries on this team is more important.

first four shouldn't see the field. Greenlaw needs rest. I'd sit him.
I would add Jennings, Ayuik, Banks and Ward.
I would add Purdy
He needs to play, if just the first half. He's young and healthy and needs all the experience he can get.

Rest the injured. Play everyone else for a few series. After the half, every time we get to the Rams 35 yard line immediately try a 50+ yard field goal. Give Moody some reps before the playoffs.

Someone said in another thread that the 9ers broke the Eagles. I don't like to use the word "exposed" ...The 9ers said they were better and proved it. The Eagles haven't been the same since that game.
They were barely hanging on in the games before they played the Niners, too. Niners beat them down, then they've been unable to squeeze out close games after that. Niners pushed them back to the mean, if anything.
This. The Eagles were squeezing by... We played them, handed it to them. The beatdown, coupled with teams getting a better idea of how to beat the Eagles... yeah, it's not surprising to see why they've fallen off at the end of this season.

Jennings is already hurting so I doubt he would play anyway. Banks is also hurting. Aiyuk will probably need to play. Without Kittle, CMC and Deebo they need somebody that can catch the ball. They only have so many on the roster. They can't just hand off every play.

I say, give all the starters a series. Except maybe CMC since he's probably got a calf strain.
Then after the one series, take out Brock Purdy, Trent Williams, Nick Bosa, Fred Warner.
Depending on the numbers, have all the other starters completely out by halftime, or at the very least, on a minimal snap count.

anyways.. we just need to win 3 more games in the playoffs to hoist the trophy .. don't mind an L next week, esp since the rams will play their hearts out
no need to get our players injured .. we need to let armstead heal well.. we need to let Hargrave rest his hammy .. Bosa gets tired as season wears on, so need to give him breather .. Warner and Greenlaw have been missing tackles .. Ward has groin thing
I would do light practice this week and have most of the starters play the first half
I would def like to see them resting in order ..
Armstead
Mccaffery
Trent
ward
greenlaw ( in and out a lot this year and apprears rusty)
kittle
Bosa
Hargrave
id also like to give extended look to Jordan Mason and bring in Sam darnold in 3rd Q to avoid and crazy injuries
Brown
Banks

Why do you rest Deboo over Aiyuk. Aiyuk is our #1 receiver.

I can't see him playing if we rest Trent.
