If you follow the conversation, I was using that example to show that Peyton has the physical capability to get outside the tackle box when the play fake is directed the other way.

Are you saying the CB or LB would not stay with the receiver if Peyton moved laterally? Sounds like an easy completion to me.

Peyton isn't going to run a bootleg offense. Too dumb to even discuss.

[BigMeatballDave]

Bootleg offense?

Alex Smith is his man.

We'll take 2 2nds.

Come on, guys, we're talking about a 39 year old immobile statue. Once defenses see that on film and recognize it from the line of scrimmage, Manning is toast.

He'll end up on IR before the halfway mark.

Yeah, I don't see Manning doing a lot of bootleg runs like the video Hef posted. I'm talking plays where he keeps it by design and rolls then either hits a limited number of targets, throws it away or keeps rolling out of bounds depending on where he is relative to the LOS. I could see that that happening 3-5 times a game. What I would picture from Manning is a fake handoff with strong run action from the O-Line. The he turns in the pocket and throws it to an open guy once the Defense is fooled.

What you're describing is Kubiak's bootlegs. Schaub was in no way a running QB. Peyton actually has more yards per game on the ground in his career than Schaub does.

Right. That's what I'm thinking. The kind of plays we ran with Elway his last few years.

seriously? It was for one yard. Any moron can run a naked boot for one yard once every couple of years. It was a great play call. Yes, he ran outside the tackle for one yard (what will be two years ago this coming season) when the entire D lined up all 11 men inside the tackles on a play fake. That play is not happening anywhere else on the field first off, secondly, if he needed more than three or four yards, the D would have had an outside backer, a CB or two, a safety, and a D end that didn't immediately crash down, and Manning would have been killed. That play simply doesn't show that Manning can run Kubiaks offense any more than me lining up and doing the same thing would show that I could. FFS

Yeah and that scrapped it in game 4 after starting 1-2 and then falling behind by like 20 ... Peyton then went back to Peyton offense and, well, you know

We couldn't run the ball.

Peyton had difficulty throwing the ball on target at the end of the season while in a pocket, yet you believe he can do it at age 39 while rolling out? You guys aren't being realistic.

And what happens the instant a defensive coordinator puts a spy on Manning and crushes him to the turf? Or hits him after he's handed off the ball? I'm sorry, I just cannot see Manning agreeing to run that type of offense at his age, especially how he ended the season.

[Mile High Mania]

If Manning walks away, let's go see what Mallet or Hoyer brings to the table...

The key is to resign the young guys, keep as much of that talent as possible. Although, I could see DT looking at Indy and saying "Hello".

[Rain Man]

The only way I might pay to see a game next year is if Peyton Manning was running bootleg plays to Justin Houston's side.

It could only work if we ran the ball very well and limited those rolls.
