It is very hard, to beat an opponent twice in such a short period of time.
yes, Denver did it against the Chiefs, but really, the Chiefs played so poorly, and far below full strength, that its hard to imagine them playing that poorly again.
I think maybe you are underestimating the return of Houston, and Albert.

When the Giants lost to the Pats in last week of regular season the Pats were undefeated and came VERY close to losing to the Giants that game...gave the Giants confidence going in. So not sure that is the best example of a team limping into playoffs.
BUT having said that I felt for sure coming within inches of beating a playoff team with our backups while resting up our starters was a HUGE win for us going in and negates our sub par performance against Indy last week, which we now have a good chance to revenge
