I agree with you, but it's a fact. Players are people too and when you assume they are not, you are failing. No question, you should play your heart out against a team that was 16 - 0 the season prior as you should a team that was 0 - 16. Absolutely no question, but sometimes you need to dig deep and find something extra. Every great player does this. Brett Favre's extra was fear of being replaced. Aaron Rodgers' has a chip on his shoulder. Barry Sanders was told he was too short... etc ...
You're also basically saying teams don't play a little harder in the post season too. Which, is a complete farce. And this game is essentially a playoff game for the Giants.
