Looks like there will be some other folks in the secondary, protecting against the long bomb:

WASHINGTON, Jan. 31, 2011 – Military fighter jets will be busy this week preparing to protect the skies around Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas, during Super Bowl XLV on Feb. 6.

Amalgam Virgo 11-05A, a North American Aerospace Defense Command air defense exercise, will allow interagency partners the chance to practice procedures in response to airspace violations, officials said.

Makes you long for the days when Bart Starr or Yelberton Abraham (aka “Y.A.”) Tittle posed the only air threat.
