P. Manning not concerned about Gregg Williams Plot.
 

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — When Indianapolis quarterback Peyton Manning met reporters covering Super Bowl XLIV for the first time, he blew off comments made last week by New Orleans defensive coordinator Gregg Williams about knocking him out of Sunday’s game.
Williams told Nashville radio station 104.5 The Zone that he wanted his players to put “remember me” hits on Manning in an attempt to knock him out of the game.
“I don’t have one,” Manning said Monday when asked about his reaction to Williams’ comments. “I didn’t hear it. “I guess I’ve been playing long enough that I don’t have any reaction to a comment like that.” In their playoff victories over Arizona and Minnesota, the Saints battered quarterbacks Kurt Warner and Brett Favre. Williams wants his players to do the same thing to Manning, who was sacked only 10 timKeees this season and has missed only one play (broken jaw) in 12 NFL seasons. “That has been our philosophy all year long,” Saints safety Darren Sharper said Monday. “It just so happens that Gregg spilled the beans. “Our attitude is always .....

He isn't concerned yet. Once his pants are on the ground that level of concern will change. Manning is going down.

I can't wait to see that whiner Manning with his pants on the ground!

Re: P. Manning not concerned about Gregg Williams Plot.
 

Why motivate their lineman to protect Peyton better...or why give them BB material at all? I like the attitude but not the ignorance.

Re: P. Manning not concerned about Gregg Williams Plot.
 

The dOlt line doesn't stand a chance.

They can't stop destiny. I applaud their efforts but no way they can stop this tidal wave of who dat.

They'll be lucky to keep Manning from having pants on the grounditis.

Re: P. Manning not concerned about Gregg Williams Plot.
 

Play making is what's going to make the difference for us. Rattling Manning is just one more play made. Forcing quick or hurried throws, good tackling at the point of the catch, slowing the running game, tipped passes, good anticipation, ... we will need every bit of defensive savvy we can muster and have it come together on Sunday evening. DB's - please, please, please keep your hands off of those guys, PLEASE, unless he's blowing past you.

Re: P. Manning not concerned about Gregg Williams Plot.
 

Many have tried, none have successed. And no the Saints won't be the first. We have played the best D's in the league (something the Saints are not) and not a one was able to get to and rattle the King.

Re: P. Manning not concerned about Gregg Williams Plot.
 

Jets said the same thing, so did Baltimore and the Broncos and on and on and on. You D couldn't rattle Tony Romo or the rookie QB for the Bucs, so what makes you think you have a shot against the best QB in the league?

Re: P. Manning not concerned about Gregg Williams Plot.
 

ooo... throwin down tha glove.... nice post Indy-dude. Peyton Manning is indeed "The King." Just like his Daddy.

pretty scary point about yall not getting rattled by Ray Lewis or the Broncos. You're right, pretty much. But I think Brett Favre disagrees.

anyway, welcome.

All Gregg Williams was saying is what every defensive coordinator is really trying to do, but is afraid to say, "We plan to knock him the **** out."

Re: P. Manning not concerned about Gregg Williams Plot.
 

Planning on it and doing it are two huge differences...

Re: P. Manning not concerned about Gregg Williams Plot.
 

I distinctly remember being in the dome once watching the Saints beat the Colts. It has been done, folks, and will be done again! And lo and behold, King Manning was the QB then, too! BTW, I'd watch it when "exalting" my players. Sometimes it ^ upsets the big guy! ;)

Re: P. Manning not concerned about Gregg Williams Plot.
 

Everyone knows that Saints fans love all things Manning......except for Sunday. Knock him the **** out!!!:popcorn:

Re: P. Manning not concerned about Gregg Williams Plot.
 

smoke screen, show pressure drop into coverage like the pats game

Re: P. Manning not concerned about Gregg Williams Plot.
 

Yep! Keep everything under and make them have to work for even 3. The more attempts we force, the more chances we'll have to make something happen in our favor.

Re: P. Manning not concerned about Gregg Williams Plot.
 

Nothing the Saints can do or will do will confuse Peyton, the offense will figure it out, the question is can your offense keep up with Peyton?

Re: P. Manning not concerned about Gregg Williams Plot.
 

Hit him hard and hit him often. That's all there really is to it. I like Manning, and I give him his props, but he's not invincible. Indy fans who don't think he can be hit, I pity you. But you go ahead and keep thinking your qb is untouchable. Fantasy is sometimes better than reality.

Re: P. Manning not concerned about Gregg Williams Plot.
 

Nothing is ever what it seems and Super Bowl victories don't happen on accident. Take what the media reports with a grain of salt.

Re: P. Manning not concerned about Gregg Williams Plot.
 

Could you please refresh our memories here....how many games has Peyton missed during his career? And he has played against better D's then the Saints bring to the table this sunday....

Re: P. Manning not concerned about Gregg Williams Plot.
 

Why does anybody debate this clown...he seems to have yall where he wants ya...lol...

Re: P. Manning not concerned about Gregg Williams Plot.
 

And how many times, have we heard, "you aren't going to get to our QB." "many have tried, but you have no chance". Let's count the teams: Giants, Pats, Cards, Vikings, Falcons.... We got to em all, and they all paid. Yeah, that works both ways.

Re: P. Manning not concerned about Gregg Williams Plot.
 

he should be

Re: P. Manning not concerned about Gregg Williams Plot.
 

Peyton's missed the same number of games as Brett Favre. But that didn't stop Favre from looking like a used pinata on Sunday night. And the Vikes have a better O Line then the Colts, multiple pro bowlers...

Re: P. Manning not concerned about Gregg Williams Plot.
 

Not to be technical...but, wth. Favre missed a bunch of games in Atlanta and in GB before whatever that guy in GB's name was...I just remember Don Maj...(Magic Man)...anyway...not that it really matters.

Re: P. Manning not concerned about Gregg Williams Plot.
 

Bad Comparison, Brett Favre was a depressed grieving alcoholic and missed tons of games before he finally got serious.

Re: P. Manning not concerned about Gregg Williams Plot.
 

None of those teams have the O line that Colts do, nor do they have Peyton Manning. Yes you may get to him a couple times early, but as the Jets and Ravens both learned (teams with tons more defensive talent then the Saints have) that after a while Manning figures you out and eats you up.

Re: P. Manning not concerned about Gregg Williams Plot.
 

the jets stopped blitzing in the 2nd half....they got to peyton manning early in the first half and into the 2nd qtr, manning was being outdueled by a rookie

manning was shut down completely and we will do the exact same thing

with 2 weeks for gregg williams to come up with a scheme to stop manning? ru kidding me

all we hear about is peyton manning dissecting defenses, but we are 2-0 after bye weeks as well this year because our team has studied and went out and performed well

peyton manning is the colts entire team.......the saints are a complete team with 22 quality starters......the colts are a team with 1 hope for winning the game.....peyton manning

Re: P. Manning not concerned about Gregg Williams Plot.
 

Please put the drink down and step away from the bar. The Colts put up 13 points in the first half against the best defense in the league, you guys rank where overall for your defence? Who did you play after those two bye weeks? One was the Cards whom are sad on the defensive end. You can scheme all you want, if you don't have the talent, it doesn't matter. We have seen the best D's in the league and beaten them all, trust me there is nothing Williams can do that the colts haven't seen. Rex Ryan has a better D, is a better Defensive coach then Williams and couldn't stop Peyton. Please step away from the Kool-Aid.....

Plus our "1" as you put it, is better then your 22 any day.....:-D

Re: P. Manning not concerned about Gregg Williams Plot.
 

First let me say, I'm the STEELERS fan, the one and definitely not the only outside of Indy i.e. Homerapolis, that can see the Saints are a much better team than you have faced in the POs. Please stop making these ridiculous statements, you're making yourself and the rest of your fanbase look like JAs, which isn't too hard to do really, with all this Manning invincibility crap. Ooooh, we should all fear the likes of the Colts, oooh it's been tried before and no one suceeded. What a bunch of horse droppings. Stop. You sound stupid. What I want to know is where you will be when the Saints kick the Colts collective behinds? Will you be here? Will you congratulate them? If your mommy taught you manners, you will be and you'll say you will be, but I anticipate you will not. I myself look forward to congratulating the SB 43 champs....THE NEW ORLEANS SAINTS

Re: P. Manning not concerned about Gregg Williams Plot.
 

Okay Sir Steeler Fan, I ask you this, can you name the last team to defeat the Colts in a game where Peyton played the entire game along with all the other Starters?

Hey if the Saints win, I will be here bright and early Monday morning and congraulate them. And yes I do believe that "can" beat the Colts, but I believe it will take an effort similar to the one they put up when they played the Pats back on that Monday night. If they play like they did in either playoff game, they won't win.

Re: P. Manning not concerned about Gregg Williams Plot.
 

Oh you mean, knock the snot out of the QB and force turnovers, maybe run a kick back for a TD...?

Yeah, we have no chance. :dunce:

Re: P. Manning not concerned about Gregg Williams Plot.
 

Well Mr. Colts fan, you just proved the point everyone is making...Manning is your team. And to answer you, I don't know when the last team to beat the Colts with Manning in the whole game, but I do know this, no Manning, no chance, i.e. Manning=team. Can you HONESTLY say the Jets and Ravens, who the Steelers beat right before the POs I might add, are BETTER than the likes of the Cardinals and Vikings? Do either of those teams you played in the POs have the offense the Saints, Vikings or Cardinals have? I saw a Colts team come back in 7 games, games with Manning in the whole time and teams which the Colts, if they are SO GREAT as you proclaim, should have BLOWN out. The Saints would have, they blew out better teams than the Colts squeaked by and came back on all season. If you need Manning in the entire game to win, again it says Manning=team. I do not and will not put the Colts on a pedestal as a team. They are just another NFL team in the SB, nothing more than that.

Re: P. Manning not concerned about Gregg Williams Plot.
 

Indy is scared.....reaaaaaaaaaaaallllly scared! Petrified, almost.

Re: P. Manning not concerned about Gregg Williams Plot.
 

Looks like his computer class just let out.

Re: P. Manning not concerned about Gregg Williams Plot.
 

No I think it "could be" a good game. I look at the game this way. Overall from top to bottom the colts are the better team. I also think the fact that the colts have experienced players playing in this game helps them. BUT, you can't discount "MO" and right now "MO" is riding a HUGE float into Miami and that can carry the Saints a long way. My predicition is this:

If the Colts are up by more then 10 points at half, the game will be close, if they are down by 10, we will end up winning by more then 10.

Re: P. Manning not concerned about Gregg Williams Plot.
 

Every defe3nse says the same thing. Smash the QB, knock him down etc etc
Why is it such a big deal to say it again?
Will Freeney and Mathis bring chocolate and flowers when they get close to Brees?
come on...this is just what every single NFL game is about. Every single cotton picking one....

Re: P. Manning not concerned about Gregg Williams Plot.
 

in superbowl history, the "best team is batting .500.
