Omaha meant the same thing every game - it was an indicator that Manning used to tell his linemen "the play has changed, the clock is low and we need to snap it right now." You might be thinking of what Peyton said in 2014...

Quote:"Omaha is a run play, but it could be a pass play or a play-action pass depending on a couple things: the wind, which way we're going, the quarter and the jerseys that we're wearing," Manning said

This was a joke, and he explained the actual meaning of it after he retired. Source.
