The coaching decisions of who is getting reps and not getting them is so strange.

Not to me! I think it's fairly obvious Bush is gone and they are evaluating what they truly have in Thomas. I also think they've been very pleased witht he few carries they've given Miller(he looks like hes going to be a good one). The remaining games really seem to be about what Thomas can bring giving more opportunities

How so? Reggie will not be with the team next season. Philbin will. This season is clearly over in regards to advancing to the postseason. Its time to start looking at shaping this team and its roster for next season. Nothing strange about that at all.

So were you happy having Odrick on the sideline along with Wake as they tried to stop the Pats last week?
Did you not see Bush was having success last week and was replaced by Thomas?
Why was Bush replaced after he fumbled yet other players kept playing?
Lamar Miller has shown an explosive step yet cannot even be activated.
It took 3/4 of the year to go by before Charles Clay got involved. He was not involved in favor of Lane...why?

Bush might be gone, but he is still the best RB. Why aren't they putting the most talented guy on the field.

Very odd decisions. I will give Joe a hall pass in that it is his first year. However, there have been some odd playing time decisions.

Then...Next season we will again be in evaluation mode to see if player "x" can be a starter in year "xxxx"...

The Fins never play for "this year" and ironically many are ok with this farm team approach.

I wonder if it actually is strange or if it is planned. It's no secret that Joe Philbin is a planner and detailed, I wonder if he laid out the road map shortly after he was hired. I wonder if it went something like: "as long as we have a reasonable shot to hit the playoffs we will continue with our star players but if we get to a point where we are basically out of the running let's use it to evaluate the talent".
