I agree that Manning is not Favre, or Warner, but he isn't the most "mobile" QB in the league either. He makes mistakes, just like everybody else. I like Manning, and I think he's a great QB, but he can be gotten too just the same.
And you guys are saying the exact same things we've heard from the Jets, the Ravens, and a few other more highly-ranked defenses that are better known for bringing pressure. You know how many of those teams have exploited Peyton and beaten us this year?

Also, you won't be playing at home. I think that's a HUGE factor that both sides need to factor in when projecting their defensive performance from the past 2 games. We've stuffed 2 pretty good running teams at home the past 2 weeks but I'm not foolish enough to project that against the Saints because we're not at home and you've got a QB to go with your running game to keep us honest.

I've picked the Saints to win, but it's because of your offense, and more specifically, being more balanced than we are. If Williams decides to try to blitz us, and I do believe this is a big IF because I don't believe that's what he really intends to do, I do believe we would win.

You know how the media keeps saying the Colts have only lost games they didn't want to win this year? Well the Saints only lost on the road once, and we played our backups for most of it. So we're OK with going on the road. Turf or grass.

I think the point is that a home crowd can really help the defense and we've seen that the past two weeks with both the Colts and Saints. I doubt either defense will perform nearly as well on a neutral field as they did at home.

You guys are acting as if having the tremendous homefield advantage at the Superdome meant nothing in your ability to apply pressure on Kurt Warner or Brett Favre. I think it had alot to do with it. It's because of that, and the fact that the Colts give up the fewest sacks in the league, that I believe you trying to pressure Manning is pointless. In fact, I welcome it because it's less guys in coverage.
