How Do You Stop Peyton Manning?

I have been reading this board a lot lately so if this has already been asked don't spit too much venom my way.
Anyway how do you stop Peyton Manning? (or slow him down) We talk about it, but specifically how do you attempt to do it? Formations? I'm no idiot. I know he's a machine and a Hall of Famer, but he does have flaws. How do you do it?
New England had his number for a while. From 2001 to 2005 they lost 6 straight to NE. Yes, some of those games where in Foxboro and being in the snow does affect your game. Still unlike anyone else Belichek had his number. What did NE do?

Apparently he can't be stopped, you can only hope to jerk him off along the way.

same thing we did to the Patriots - cover the recievers well, and take away the checkdown guy (Collie - who is basically the Colts Welker).

quote:They jammed their receivers at the line and kept jamming them. Recently, the NFL starting enforcing DB contact more strictly, thus allowing greater precision for Manning on timing routes. That's when Manning's career really took off and he was able to overcome his playoff/Patriots demons.
What did NE do?
In spite of the enforcement of the contact rule, the 5 yard jam is still legal and the best way to counteract Manning's prowess. See Colts game vs San Francisco.

He can't be stopped, you can only hope to contain him

You don't stop him completely. You just have to capitalize on the mistakes when he makes them, and don't try and throw the same thing at him too often. He'll read it, and make you eat it.
Same holds true for our man Brees, though. Two great QBs, but the media is WAY over the top for Manning. Brees will get his love when he gets his ring.

Give him multiple (like 3 or 4) looks on each play.
If the defense is set and Peyton starts pointing people out and checking down like he always does, just reposition the defense (mainly linebackers and safeties) again while he makes the audible and as the time clock winds down.

Have a life size Kenny Chesney cardboard cutout on the Saints' sideline to distract him

"If he bothers the Saints, we'll take care of him. What you've got to do is cut the achilles on the back of his leg right at the bottom. He'll never play football again, because his weight displacement goes back, all his weight is on his right foot, and he'll throw everything off to the right. He'll never come through on anything. He'll quit the game."
With apologies to Carl Spackler!

1. Tackle him before he throws the ball
2. Tackle him while he's throwing the ball
3. Tackle him after he throws the ball
4. Intercept the ball, cause fumbles
4. Bust Joseph Addai in the mouth rendering him ineffective
6. Tackle well
7. Use the 3 headed monster to our advantage, Mike Bell will be 1 of the keys
8. Reggie Bush must come up big

Stop him by telling him Eli is a better quarterback, and that Magnavox makes a better tv! He'll argue, curl up in fetal position and cry.
