    Peyton has seen it all.. if they don't get pressure up front he's going to carve them up just like he did in game 1. We need to stop the run and make sound tackles. But I believe the Texans will beat Indy again! :grin:

    The only way to beat Peyton is to keep him off the field.

    And even then sometimes that doesn't work (ask the 2009 Dolphins).

    Why didn't they just plug Rev Sharpton in there? He looked good every single time he was in

    Very true. No Dallas Clark and an injured Austin Collie will be huge. Though I am very worried about check downs to Addai with missed tackles.

    Addai's status for the game is still up in the air.

    What about him? I'm sure he will be in the same spot he always is

    Cannot be a bad thing. Manning and Dallas Clark abuses Cushing in Indy last year. Even with Clark out, I am sure Manning had a glee in his eye when it comes to the Texans coverage

    probably hesitant to stick a rookie in there. I expect him to get some playing time though because i think the kid can play

    I'm sure we'll see more and more of Sharpton as the season goes on, but for now, they are probably just trying to bring the rookie along slowly. But yes, in the short amount of time he has played, he has looked good.

    Bentley Cushing Diles is still a pretty strong LB corps.

    Bentley and Diles are just ok. Hopefully they can step up.
