Opinion: Before any talk of rest, Buffalo Bills need to take care of business on Monday night

I hope the Buffalo Bills aren’t thinking the same way the majority of the fan base seems to be this week. Bills fans and prognosticators all over the internet have been debating whether or not Buffalo should rest their starters in Week 17. That conversation is premature.

If the Bills don’t win on Monday Night Football, they will fall to 11-4, one game behind the Pittsburgh Steelers and just one game ahead of the Tennessee Titans. Another Week 17 loss to the playoff-worthy Miami Dolphins would make the Bills 11-5 with the possibility of falling to the four seed in the conference behind the Titans.
