It'll be interesting to see what happens, because if teams are allowed to forfeit without penalty, you'll see it happening in Week 18 going forward when teams don't have anything to play for. The good teams will forfeit to get a bye week, and the bad teams will forfeit to save payroll.
You can't let the teams or players have input on this, because they don't necessarily have the best interest of the sport in mind. The league office exists to protect the sport.
