How to stop NFL top seeds from resting starters in the last week

To make sure teams have something to play for after the top seed is secured I think the way the bye for the first round of playoffs should change. Instead of the top two seeds getting byes it should be based on their record in the last 3 weeks. If you win in week 17 you get 4 bye week points if you win in week 16 you get 2 bye points and 1 point for a week 15 win. The two division winners with the most bye week points get the bye. Homefield advantage would stay with the highest seeds. This should solve the problem of number one seeds resting starters.
