Denver #1 in sacks allowed and QB hits...can the Cats get to him?

Out of all the teams left on our schedule this is by far the hardest, IMO. Our secondary is so young they will get eaten alive by Peyton's audibles. The only chance we have is if we completely dominate the line.

Yes, I'm worried about the audibles too. I doubt we have the experience on D right now to use many disguised coverages. So I'm worried about lining up and Peyton knowing exactly what to change the play to to burn us.

Not to beat a dead horse, but it's hard to sack someone when the longest they hold the ball is like 3 seconds. We will see....I'm crossing my fingers and hoping the team can keep winning. Would be nice if they make an epic run after such a bad start; it would be nice, but if "if" was a 1/5th...we would all be drunk right now.

At most.

Most of this throws are gone before 2 seconds.

We have our work cut out for us, but you have to believe.

I think we'll need to move Smith around and make it hard for them to key on him. Denver plays a very aggressive style of defense and aren't afraid to leave their CBs in man. Fox knows better than to leave Smitty to one guy, so we need to disrupt that scheme by moving him all over the place - preferably in the slot, where Welker gave them headaches. It's a good week to have Gettis back.

Norman better get ready to get battle tested and start catching some int so he doesn't throw that way.

I want to see Norman play more press coverage. It seem like everytime I see him pre-snap, he's giving his man a five to ten yard cushion. I want to see what Norman can really do in man-to-man coverage.

this is a game that we absolutely can not play soft zone or play it safe or he will kill us.

rivera knows peyton, though, and knows how to stop him. i think peyton is getting the ball out quicker this year but he's only doing it because his life depends on it.

defense is going to have to mix things up, but hold off on showing their hand until the very last second.

i know a lot of people hate this idea, but this is very much going to be rivera going against peyton in this game. rivera has to call this game tight.

the offense is going to have to be full throttle all game as well. with peyton under center, you can't play it safe and protect any leads that you might get.

the key to beating fox, though, is change up the way you do things on offense. he thinks that adjustments are a myth.

His pre-snap reads are incredible and still unmatched by any other QB in the league. We can only hope our front four can continue to get pressure without blitz help because we will need the extra coverage.

Rivera has played him before, it'd be wise to do what the falcons did and have a lot of guys jumping around.
