He simply looks bad. Last time he came back from an ICL injury he was younger, but he had 9 tackles, 2 sacks and 2 TFL in his first 3 games back. Do we feel Von is toast? His dead cap is $32.5M so he is not going anywhere. He is older now and likely to be tested for peds if he comes back to quickly, I think as a food item, he is more like a potato, put a fork in it, he is done…, 😁👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.Biscuit97 Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 I don’t think the Bills should have signed Von Miller. Worried this contract might aged poorly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey the should of thought about the injury risk for a 34 ur old end i said that the day it happened. A very un Bean like move, splash play, without almost any chance of being worth it. He isn't an O lineman or QB, where at that age you can still be elite, but an edge rusher who relied on speed and athleticism and yes, skill set, football smarts, but not very relevant without the physical traits.

Unless she sent to the hospital for serious injuries then no proof or video that anything happened. She could be charged for making false claims and receive just probation and a fine which still saves VON guaranteed money owed. I am sure Von and his lawyer told her how much money he would lose and to change there story 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The GF can talk until she's blue in the face and it doesn't matter. So the qestions are: What will the DA do? Is he looking for headlines? What and when will Goodell do? This could take months and months. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just dumb luck on the majors injury unfortunately. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strive_for_five_guy Posted December 11, 2023 Share Posted December 11, 2023 Not that it’s saying much, but anyone else think Von looked at least a little more active out there today? Maybe I’m just being optimistic, or maybe there were some glimmers of hope? 3 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Punching Bag Posted December 11, 2023 Share Posted December 11, 2023 (edited) I would have preferred AJ Epenesa been able to be on the field. IMO a Samoan always a difference on a defense. That was 2nd time he tipped a ball to himself/ Edited December 11, 2023 by Limeaid typo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it was adrenaline or just the Chiefs but he almost got a sack on Pat before he released. Some encouraging signs. He was invisible in the 1st half.

Big Turk Posted December 11, 2023 Share Posted December 11, 2023 1 minute ago, Shortchaz said: He was getting pressure on the last drive. He might be coming around. He flashed several times today...likely the first time he played without the brace...would expect him to continue to get a little better each week moving forward... Almost caused a fumble on Mahomes but it was overturned earlier when Johnson recovered it as n incomplete pass. Also forced I believe a throwaway from Mahomes when he was being double teamed on a rush upfield earlier in the game(first half) by the RB and RT and Mahomes was forced to step up and threw it away I believe. Noticed him a few other times as well... Definitely a positive step in the right direction for his play. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillMafia716ix Posted December 11, 2023 Share Posted December 11, 2023 He looked good today. Finally got rid of the knee brace. He was impacting the QB and looked explosive. Best game since his return. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFunPolice Posted December 11, 2023 Share Posted December 11, 2023 He definitely made a couple of good plays today, which is encouraging. We need him at 100% in January Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed that. I watch his every snap when he's on the field. He hasn't lost any burst or speed, he just didn't have any bend. Looks like he was able to change levels a little better tonight. His signature move is the ghost move....that shoulder dip and he hasn't even attempted that yet. When I start seeing him do that, I will know he's 100% back. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
