What does 'Omaha' mean? We may finally have a concrete answer.
On GameDay Morning on Sunday, former Colts receiver and Peyton Manning teammate said that during their time together, the famous audible meant that Manning was going to flip the play from one side to the other.
"Omaha means ⦠he's going the other way," Wayne said. "If it's a run to the right -- if it's dive right, Omaha is gonna be dive left."
Wayne, who also said that Manning required receivers to memorize four typed pages of signals before every game -- "font 12," Wayne added -- guaranteed that there was no way Omaha meant the same thing then as it does now.
