Yeah, I sort of figured this could happen since about mid season. As much as the Pats will have things locked up and nothing to really play for, the Giants were just as likely to be in the same boat. Dallas had that division won about 5 weeks ago and no one else in the NFC was looking like they could knock the Giants out of the first wild card. Pats will play their starters for the first half at least and if the Giants aren't putting any pressure on Brady he'll play at least 3 quarters. They don't want him not to sit for 3 weeks not playing type of thing.
