The packers have aleady clinched the nfc north so do you think they should aim to enter the playoffs at 16-0 or with a healthy, rested roster and take a chance by loosing a game or two?

I think let the starters rest a bit. They can obviously afford to lose a game or two. I don't like the packers much anyways so really, i could care less. But i don't want to watch them at the superbowl. :(
well they really dont have to be heros and win the super bowl but players want to win so you need a healthy roster to win and keep people on the field.
Rest the starters! Who knows, the back-ups might even pull off an "upset." On the contrary, you let the starters play and go for an undefeated season and risk losing first or second round but you get the fame out of it all.
Well, if the want to win when it really matters, I'd say they should take a chance at losing a game or two to get their team rested. I'm sure they won't do that though, because they want to continue being undeafeted.
I say go for 16-0, as a fan of a team that actually went 16-0 (the '07 Patriots) it was fun watching them go unbeaten, and if it hadn't been for a great catch by David Tyree for the Giants, New England woulda gone 19-0. the only team to go unbeaten were the '72 Dolphins (14-0)
Charles Woodson is a little banged up right now and most NFL/ESPN analysts say that the Packers should rest him and get him ready for the playoffs so he doesn't get any furthered injury. I also think that they should keep winning games until they clinch homefield advantage because the 49ers are only 2 games behind and would love to have homefield advantage throughout the playoffs. So overall I think that the Packers should go for 16-0 and possibly have Aaron Rodgers break the all time passing yards thrown in a single season breaking Dan Marino's record of 5,044 yards.
Well if i was the coach i would want my best players to be playing if they have clinched home field advantage throughout the playoffs because there would be no point to risk injuring the best and irreplaceable players on your team. Then if i wasn't the coach i would probably want to try to go undefeated and go all the way just because i think that it would be cool to see a team do that.

I think they should rest their starters because when the Patriots tried to go 17-0, they lost.
