Miami's secondary was awful last year.
And an easier schedule means an easier path to the Super Bowl. I think that's exactly something Peyton would consider.

You seriously think he's going to be making his decision based on things like crowd noise? Miami crowds are good when there's excitement around the team, as there obviously would be. I think the o-line stacks up just fine, sack statistics are a terrible indicator when you have a QB who defenses don't respect, who takes too long to get rid of the ball, and lacks mobility. As for the D, we'll see, neither team will be the same as last year.
As for the schedule, Manning has shown time and time again that he likes big games. Playing the Patriots and Jets twice would be a selling point.
