Semi OT: Von Miller claims hit on Connolly wasn't dirty..
In a tweet last night Miller had this to say

@MillerLite40: Play was not a cheap shot, hit was totally legal, play wasn't over. I could've loafed and said game over, but I didn't. Never quit, never give up
Hey Von the play was over. Also, you hit Connolly from the blindside. That makes it a cheap shot. It's why you were flagged and why the Pats O-line jumped your sorry arse..

Clearly he was a complete non factor in this game extremely frustrated. I'm sure his view was skewed of a cheap shot at this point. He needs to go back and watch again.

I think he's right........it wasn't hard enough to be cheap. Connolly just turned around and was like 'huh?'
He hits like a girl

Re: Semi OT: Von Miller claims hit on Connolly wasn't dirty..
The whistle didn't blow before his hit, but his hit still wasn't legal, illegal block in the back, blindside, cheapshot, whatever you want to call it. They play wasn't dead though (at least as far as I remember), it was just the hit itself that wasn't legal.
Funnier thing was when he tried to shove Connolly after he was paying attention, Connolly didn't budge and four OL took a handful of Bronco's into the dirt and Denver got their ass kicked in the scuffle.

He'd be a great Pat.
For obvious reasons, he showed that he would not......barwin and reed, on the other hand.......
