Before I start, this is based on whether or not we win Sunday.
If we lose, we'll be down 2 games to KC and having to go to KC in order to split.
Also we have to go to NE in between these two games as well, and that's definitely not a cake walk.
Providing we lose this Sunday, I think we should rest Peyton for a few weeks and have him fully ready for the playoffs. Obviously this means conceding the division to KC, but I think it doesn't matter.
We can play on the road, and since the past 3 Superbowl champs have played at least two road games before getting there, it's not impossible at all.
The main thing is having Manning 100% for when the real games start.
He really needs to sit and heal for an extended period of time, since the bye didn't really do anything.
Thoughts?
