Interesting stat from the Indy game. Peyton's longest completion was to McCourty, 32 yards in the air. His other two interceptions were likely among the longest too, since his longest completion to his own player was 28 yards.
Be concerned about yardage if you want, we don't have the talent or experience to shut the best teams down, but be aware that the greatest defensive coach maybe ever, has a strategy and his young team is executing it. It's no accident.

I'm just in AWE of what he's been able to do with a crew where 9 of 11 starters ~ that's 7 of 9, in "Borg"~ are at least new to their jobs, if not brand spanking new Rookies, all together. And of course: They're only going to get better.
As am I. Check our recent record against Peyton. Not too good. As good as he is, he apparently doesn't have the patience Brady has and will "Favre" it up there if you keep him frustrated from long ball satisfaction.
You so eloquently stated my point, which is; these are the players we have, these players are helping defeat some of the best teams in football by taking away the quick scores and making them take more plays/risks to get each score.
Tom Brady is the master of that type of drive, most other QBs will make a mistake.
Absolutely beautifully put, Brothah!!
