This should end well.

[Sweet Daddy Hate]

Was this not where we were prior to Eric returning?

[RealSNR]

They had to. Coleman/McCray aren't legit options at safety.

[The Franchise]

Was this not where we were prior to Eric returning?

It was between Fleming and Cooper.

Who's the nickel? Is Owens healthy again? And what about Fleming?

Peyton Manning meets the man who will destroy him.

Damn straight.

[MTG#10]

Avery finally back should open up some more of that playbook

[Iconic]

Why isn't Fleming starting on the outside? Still injured?

[Mr. Laz]

So cooper as the nickle?

[WhawhaWhat]

Didn't Parker do pretty well playing safety earlier this year?

[Discuss Thrower]

... what's the safeword?

[mdchiefsfan]

Curious if Avant gets in the game.

[mdchiefsfan]

Yup. I prefer him there.

[hometeam]

Yup. I prefer him there.

we all do

[OldSchool]

Gaines should be fine. The only thing that I worry about with him is whether or not he can handle Thomas' physicality.

[Pasta Little Brioni]

Coward

[AustinChief]

Who's the nickel? Is Owens healthy again? And what about Fleming?

This is the important question. I'm not too worried about Gaines but Manning can exploit a weak nickel all day.

[pugsnotdrugs19]

I said he'd be our number 1 corner by 2015 week 1 back in the Summer. This is the start of it.

I'll eat the crow if it comes, but this kid has all of the skills to be big time.

[Dunerdr]

Will we match up smith on DT and Gaines on sanders? Or switch?

[Kman34]

Not thrilled about this...Manning has made many rookies his bitch over the years...

[Deberg_1990]

Mannings going to eat Gaines alive

[Rausch]

Not thrilled about this...Manning has made many rookies his bitch over the years...

Yup.

Manning doesn't have to do $3it other than lob the floater up there after the corner is beat.

It's not like he's been throwing lasers this year...

[pugsnotdrugs19]

You guys are basing this off of Marcus Cooper. Completely.

[Rausch]

You guys are basing this off of Marcus Cooper. Completely.

I'm basing this off three things:

1) Rookie CB vs. 5head.
2) Our secondary not looking great last week without a pass rush.
3) Gaines not being very strong and not being the most physical corner.

As much as I love EBerry I think getting Parker out of the corner spot has to help... he plays damn good at safety.

Smith is one of the best CBs in the game. No way Gaines can be as good as him by next year

[Iconic]

Think this is exactly why they have him listed as our #2 and not Cooper/Fleming. Either of those two would get abused by Sanders... but this leaves the question of who will cover Welker.

[Sweet Daddy Hate]

Hopefully, someone who will stomp on him and piss on his concussed head.

Repeatedly!

Owens.

[BigMeatballDave]

He's got speed. That'll help. Kid's gotta play sometime.

4) Can't get his head around to find the ball worth shit... Will have a minimum of 2 PIs in this game..

[Kman34]

Sure he has to play.... but against 5 head??

[penbrook]

Sure he has to play.... but against 5 head??

Would you rather have Mr I get burnt Cooper

[MMXcalibur]

We know Cooper is toast against Manning.
We know Parker is toast at CB against most anyone.
We don't know what we have in Gaines, so why the fuck not. Go for it.

[BigMeatballDave]

Sure he has to play.... but against 5 head??

Why not? What better test?

[Kman34]

Why not? What better test?

Sure it will be a good test...but I'm afraid he's going to get a "F" against their cheating pick play..... Plus I've watched him chase receivers without getting his head around all season.

[MahiMike]

We have everything to Gaines.

[Easy 6]

This should be a pretty good look, Parker is back where he belongs and I'm excited about Gaines potential, the future is now for him.

If only Heck was as willing to make some changes along the O line...

[Iowanian]

Parker has looked significantly better at safety than corner.

Gaines has improved A LOT over this year. I was hoping Flemming would be back.

The truth is, a pass rush and putting Manning on the ground takes care of these issues.

More worried about CJ Anderson running wild on us than Peyton exploiting our corners honestly..

Especially with what the Donx OL is able to get away with. CHOKE HOLDS on Tamba are apparently legal EVERY time KC and Denver play. :shake:

5 Head will certainly target him - the way he did Cooper last year. Lets hope Gains fares better. If not - it's gonna be a long night.

[BWillie]

Boom. There it is. Time for this youngster to make a name for himself, and have a coming out party.

Heh. I said youngster.

[Iowanian]

Honestly, I'm hoping Sutton will get creative this game. This is the perfect time to bring in a package of blitzes including Ford on the field with 1 job.

[The Franchise]

It's going to be up to our defensive line to generate pressure on Manning. He'll do the same shit he did last year. Quick passes until the defense gets tired and then it's deep ball time.

[Pushead2]

To be honest, I would send Hali or Houston over the NT a bunch of times Sunday night.

Manning stepping up into the pocket > Manning scrambling to the left or right.

[RunKC]

He's the best option we have for Emmanuel Sanders.

[Rausch]

To be honest, I would send Hali or Houston over the NT a bunch of times Sunday night.

Manning stepping up into the pocket > Manning scrambling to the left or right.

Agreed.

The outside rush just takes too long for 5head. We need to get in his face...

[Pushead2]

Agreed.

The outside rush just takes too long for 5head. We need to get in his face...

When his pocket crumbles, it's when he rushes throws. It's hard to get to him constantly, need to just take away time on his throws.

[The Franchise]

During preseason....Sutton was using the formation where Houston would line up on the inside and Ford was on the outside with Hali. It's time for Ford to step up and show us what he's capable of.

[TEX]

Yep. BUT when you do manage to get him, he looks like such a SPAZ trying to elude the sack. Not very fleet of foot to say the least... LMAO

[Sorter]

Curious to see how much Houston drops this game.

[ptlyon]

Boom. There it is. Time for this youngster to make a name for himself, and have a coming out party.

Heh. I said youngster.

Heh, you said coming out.

[ptlyon]

"and that was a 56 yard gain on Gaines"

Shut your whore mouth!

Weren't Houston and Hali injured last year? That should make a world of difference.
