Then the Giants will certainly have something to play for ... even though it might not matter, they won't know it by Saturday night.
says who? they may already have there spot locked up from week 16. plenty of years teams cannot move up or down going into the last week of the season. most years teams cannot move up or down week 17.
The ONLY way the last game won't mean a postion in the standing is if they are up by 3 games going in to Week 17 (or up by 2 games with a tie-breaker advantage).
... and the way it looks now, the Giants won't be up by 3 games on anyone ... there is a posse chasing them at 5-6.
