From ESPN PR, here are some of the anticipated show highlights: You Play to Win the Game: This week marks the 10th anniversary of one of the most famous on-the-podium speeches by a coach in NFL history – then-N.Y. Jets head coach Herm Edwards’ “You Play to Win the Game.” Countdown will commemorate this hallmark with Edwards, now an ESPN analyst, as the crew reviews the impact the saying has had on the game, including insight from the reporter whose question prompted the memorable answer. Sport Science – Measuring the Mile High Altitude: Quarterbacks Drew Brees (Saints) and Peyton Manning (Broncos) will go head-to-head on Sunday night in Denver. Sports Science host John Brenkus will analyze how the altitude at Mile High Stadium could impact the speed and tempo of running a no-huddle offense in the game between the league’s two leading quarterbacks.
