Former NFL head coach Bill Belichick has prepared for the playoffs 19 times in his career. He's coached in an NFL-record 44 playoff games.
With Week 17 wrapping up tonight and the final week of the NFL season taking place next weekend, some teams will bench players for various reasons. This means more backups will get reps and snaps in the final regular game of the season.
Speaking on the "Pat McAfee Show" today, Belichick gave his point of view on whether teams should rest or play starters in the final week of the regular season. He thinks it's situational and all depends on a certain player's status, whether they need to get better and play more snaps or get healthier with more rest.
