Does anyone believe in the rust factor?

I mean I feel teams that are in the playoffs and have continued to play all of their starters since the regular season may just be more into the flow of the game than those that haven't played any of their starters for over three weeks 

Rest is a good think but teams like Detroit, Buffalo, and the Chiefs who haven't played full strength in several weeks may indeed have some rust which could cost them the game yet alone the spread.

Thoughts on this?

Detroit played a serious game 2 weeks ago. Think of it like they had a bye week.

All playoffs need to get rid of byes-they are major disadvantage. I hate them!!! Rest=rust!

nope

Usually veteran teams fair better but definitely a serious consideration. 

Don't think it affects Detroit and Buffalo as much but KC got nearly 3 weeks off lol! 

I'd be on Texans 1H for sure might be down 3 at halftime or quite possibly tied or be up a little

@Digitalkarma

 Texas first half seems like an outstanding play and if any rust is involved with the Chiefs will show earlier in the game before adjustments are made and the players shake off the rust.

Good luck pal....I like it!
