Would love to hear from the football savvy here that I am worrying about nothing.
The wonderful thing is that our defense are a bunch of smart dudes. They are prepped for this. And sure, initially they might be able to dink and dunk on us. Even the hurry up by Brees resulted in throws to our db's and corners that they dropped because of the conditions.
This ordinarily would favor Peyton, but he would have to play perfect ball against our top ranked D. Since we have not been exposed to hurry up, much, he does not know just yet what we will do. We are not all on tape. This plays into our hands.
You can bet that Peyton has been studying the Arizona tape a bunch to see how Palmer won the game. You can bet that we and Max will not be suckered into that position again.
I posted this else where but when asked if he was going to "enjoy" New York City. Sherman said, 'outside of the shaking of hands and interviews, I will go back to my room and prepare. We are here to play football.'(or something like that).
We will be ready for Mannings' hurry up offense.
