Sweet justice would be for us to play the Cowboys in the playoffs and knock them out IN Dallas.

I don't see how that's "shady". And you wouldn't have to put them on IR, you could just sit them. The disincentive to that would be obvious, especially for Indy, since they went into cruise control once home field advantage was locked up. They came out flat, and got knocked right out of the playoffs.

i remember reading about pulling guys back from IR for the postseason a year ago, so i wonder if there was a rule change or if there's a way to do that (like a PUP type list or something)...
