When the game is defacto done with six minutes left in the fourth quarter, why don't teams put 2s out there to 1) see what they have and 2) mitigate potential injury loss to the 1s? Not just Seattle but generally. The game is effectively over with the only advantage being possibly giving live snap experience to said 2s.
A few things with this. Seattle specifically.
Pete, and Wilson for that matter, believe they always have a chance. They are super competitive and think they can find a way to win no matter the circumstance.
Teams also do not dress enough players to go fully with 2s.
But in general I am with your line of thinking, star players need to be pulled, and anyone playing hurt need to be pulled as well.
