@bubbers44:
There was no overspeed warning - nor did the aircraft approach an overspeed condition at any point.
The PF queries whether the PNF and Captain suspect "crazy speed" (which we're assured by our Francophone colleagues means he was concerned about overspeed), but the PNF at least seems convinced this is not the case and rebukes the PF for trying to extend the speedbrakes.
It has been suggested that the PF may have suspected overspeed due to abnormal wind noise (possibly due to stalled air).
[FYI : The Birgenair 757 crash you refer to was suspected to have initiated from an insect nest inside the pitot tube - the "taped over" incident was the Aeroperu 757, and in that case it was the static ports. ]
