Good read.

"You’re never worried about Brady hitting you for 70 yards"
Mr Miller, meet Mr Hogan!

That's a great article from Von Miller.

Man what's with Miller buttering everyone up lately?

Good for him for saying, "don't skip ahead to the list!" That's great.

That was a good read.

It's funny how defensive players say things about Brady such as "tough", "his pre-snap reads are incredible", "Everyone's playing checkers while Brady's playing chess" etc etc.... While the Mediots are saying it's because of 0.3 psi in a football.

He sure made Vernon Frazier's day.

Big fan of the Player's Tribune. Makes me appreciate a lot of players that I never had much of an opinion on beyond "They're good/They're not good".

I've always hated facing Von Miller, and I'm sure he's a loudmouth when big games of ours are coming up (I'm not 100% sure, but he's a Bronco and they always get a little chippy with us the week of a big game), but when the dust settles, he's always been a guy who you can tell loves football and can appreciate talent.

I appreciate the insight - thanks Von!

It was an insightful read.

I'm surprised he didn't add Toughest opponent in a fight: Light, Connolly and the rest of the Pats sideline

With age comes wisdom...Brady had it a lot earlier than other players though, again he is an anomaly...respect your opponent...

yet another elite defender calls out tom as a tough competitor.

"There is still stuff the Patriots do that I've never seen before".

Huge compliment to the coaching genius of Belichick.

Good read and a good insight into the mind of one of the league's best at his position.

 

[Onedaful]

Great read, thanks for the post!

"Nice game, Von." "You too, Tom. See you next year."

Every time I see Von Miller with his glasses, I think of Miguel working on his Pats Cap accounting.

He's right about Brady not having many weapons around him (unlike P. Manning with Wayne, Harrison, Clark and James) most of the time. Imagine Brady with Moss, Gronk, Welker and Dillon in their prime.

Edit: and I'm not comparing Gronk and Moss (2 of the all-time best at their position) to Wayne and Clark. Only that Manning had those guys his whole career (look what he had in Denver as well) and Brady had Moss for a year and a half, Dillon for 2 good years and Gronk for only part-time duty.
