Bye weeks aren’t just “rest and recover.” Good staffs use

Bye weeks aren’t just “rest and recover.” Good staffs use them like a midseason code review: self-scout the tendencies everyone else has already figured out, clean up communication issues, and reset the locker room before bad habits become identity. Funny part is some teams come out flatter after the bye because routine matters in football — too much reset and suddenly the timing looks off for a whole quarter.
