The Football Heat

Nice story on what a “Miami Heat” NFL team would look like

I think an argument can be made for this team dominating the league, and one where they’d get beat.  Some reasons they’d dominate:

  • Edge Rushers like Freeney and Ware coming at you from both sides would make any QB quake in fear.
  • Even if they somehow find a way to stop the 2 DEs, they have to find a way to fit a pass in between the 2 best CB in the league, and the best ball-hawking S in football.  Yikes.
  • Imagine that offense running the no-huddle.  If the defense played a standard set, Manning would shred them to pieces.  If they started running Nickel/Dime packages, you’ll have Chris Johnson running free in the secondary.
  • Peyton Manning dominates despite not having a team like this around him.  He can also turn minimum salary WRs into super stars.
