Giants as surprised as anyone they’re still in playoff chase

MIAMI GARDENS - It is Rashad Jennings' cliche. But even Rashad Jennings is tired of hearing it.

So there the Giants running back was, late last week, listening as somebody pointed out that the NFC East crown is still there for the taking, that despite a season full of Big Blue foul-ups, the Giants' ultimate goals remain "right in front of us," as Jennings has said several times.

And all Jennings could do was roll his eyes and guffaw.

"Crazy, right?" he told the News. "I feel the same way you do: It's insane."

Yet on Monday night, when the Giants face the Dolphins in this season that should long ago have spiraled out of control, the insane will be fully possible.
