I'm not saying he's resting them to avoid Burrow, I'm saying they would be happy to avoid Burrow if they could lol.

That's pretty much it. They were going to rest their starters either way. Probably lose either way. Not specifically to avoid the Bengals or anything. They wouldn't necessarily even play them and they don't control the outcome of the Miami game. At the same time, I'm sure they're not heartbroken that a QB of Burrow's caliber won't be playing.
