If the Broncos don't turn the ball over, they should be able to cover easily against the Saint. The Saints defense are swiss cheese, and Manning will carve them to pieces, considering that Josh Freeman threw 400 yards on them.

Although the Broncos defense has been susceptible to the pass, I think being at home greatly helps them with the crowd noise. Drew Brees will probably be in passing situations most of the day because they can't run the ball, so it should greatly favor the speedy pass rush of Von Miller and Elvis Dumervil. Also I think the Broncos Nickel package will matchup well with Saints receivers because Jimmy Graham is still gimpy. The Broncos secondary were only venerable when the had to deal with Tony Gonzales, Antonio Gates, and Gronkowski.
