than Denver Broncos star Von Miller http://www.authenticsneworleanssaints.com/cheap-ken-crawley-jersey , who has dumped the quarterback 83 1-2 times since his Rookie of the Year debut in 2011.Miller's sole sack of Seattle's Russell Wilson, whom he'll face for just the second time Sunday, came in 2014, eight months after the Seahawks throttled the Broncos in the Super Bowl with Miller sidelined by a knee injury.Neither player seems particularly enthusiastic about facing the other in the season opener at Mile High Stadium."Russell's elite," Miller said Thursday. "Nobody likes playing Russell Wilson . He's just elite, best of the best. As a pass rusher, you want a guy that when you get to him and you touch him, he'll lay down for you. Russell's the complete opposite."He's probably THE most elusive quarterback out there. So, nobody likes that, especially if you're a sack guy."Miller's been a big fan of Wilson ever since seeing him outshine Matt Flynn in an exhibition game at Denver in Wilson's rookie season."I feel like he's been great since his first couple of starts in the preseason, when was that, 2012, when he just went off in the preseason? I think he's been great. He really hasn't looked back since then," Miller said. "He's a great quarterback. He's done everything the right way, one of those guys who you want your kids looking up to. So, Russell Wilson is a great quarterback and I'm looking forward to playing against him."Not really."Wilson is just as effusive in praise of Miller."He's one of those guys that's a game changer Color Rush Josh LeRibeus Jersey ," Wilson said. "He can make some plays. I think the best thing for us is knowing where he is and playing smart football. When you're playing LeBron James, or you're playing guys like Kobe Bryant or Steph Curry, they're going to make their plays."He's one of those guys for sure."Miller always fancied himself more of a Dirk Nowitzki."Yeah, I thought I was Dirk," Miller cracked. "It's great, especially coming from a guy like Russell. I already told you what type of player he is and what he means to the National Football League. So, for him to have those words for me are amazing."I still don't look forward to playing against him," Miller stressed. "But it's going to be a great game on Sunday."Teams have long schemed to keep Miller from destroying their offensive game plans like he did in Super Bowl 50 with a pair of strip sacks of Cam Newton.They tilt protection his way, chip him with tight ends and otherwise force him to beat double teams most of the time.The addition of first-round draft pick Bradley Chubb should ease some of that attention .The fifth overall selection in the NFL draft, Chubb earned a starting spot opposite Miller but the Broncos have the best depth at that position in the league and can also unleash former first-rounder Shane Ray and Shaq Barrett on quarterbacks."Von's still going to get chipped, and early on they're going to obviously test Bradley (to see) if he can win one-on-ones away from Von. If he does that, then we'll get more fair protections," Broncos coach Vance Joseph said. "But most teams are still going to turn to Von and chip Von. If they don't, he's going to take over the game."But it helps having Chubb opposite and having Ray opposite and even with our NASCAR package having our four pass rushers on the field. That's always a good deal, too. It creates more one-on-ones."Chubb knows all about Wilson, who started three dozen games at NC State before transferring to Wisconsin."I actually got a chance to meet him when I was there at a game Youth Drew Brees Jersey , so it was pretty cool," Chubb said. "I didn't watch him in college but now as a professional I see he makes plays with his feet and with his arms. He's a great player."His interaction with Wilson basically consisted of asking for a selfie."It was more of a quick-type conversation. I came downstairs and he was right there and I said, 'Hey, can I get a picture really quick?' Took the picture, then he had to be on his way," Chubb recalled.He'd love to run into Wilson again Sunday in Seattle's backfield along with Miller.Saints Hoping to Knock Down the Defending Champion Eagles in Week 11 We’ll continue a series of opponent preview posts for the New Orleans Saints opponents in 2018. Next, we’ll finish that that “bunch of frauds” (s/o to our old pal John Sigler), the Super Bowl Champion Philadelphia Eagles. Our friends over at Bleeding Great Nation took some time to give us Saints fans the scoop a the reigning Super Bowl champs.Photo by Rich Schultz /Getty ImagesWeek 11: vs the Philadelphia EaglesNotable free agent additions:WR Mike Wallace, DT Haloti Ngata, LB Corey Nelson, (DE Michael Bennett - acquired through trade)Over/Under:10.5 wins -- Over. The reigning Super Bowl champions won 13 regular season games last year. They did this despite not having Carson Wentz, Jason Peters, Darren Sproles, Jordan Hicks, and Chris Maragos for all 16 games. The Eagles were able to overcome theses losses due to a combination of elite coaching by Doug Pederson, fantastic play in the trenches http://www.authenticsneworleanssaints.com/cheap-ted-ginn-jr-jersey , and strong roster depth. The Eagles project to have these same strengths in 2018 so I wouldn’t bet against them.Most exciting rookie:I’m most excited about: TE Dallas Goedert (AKA Philly Goedert). Goedert measures in at 6-4, 260 pounds and boasts plus athleticism. He looked virtually unguardable in the red zone during spring practices this year. The Eagles already have one great tight end in Zach Ertz. The presence of Goedert could give Philly a new dynamic duo for Pederson to unleash on the league.Position battle to keep an eye on:The Eagles need to figure out what to do at nickel cornerback with Patrick Robinson leaving in free agency. It’s possible 2017 second-round pick Sidney Jones steps up in that role. He got the first look during OTAs. De’Vante Bausby, who spent last season on Philadelphia’s practice squad last year, also flashed during spring drills and might be the front-runner right now. Rookie fourth-round pick Avonte Maddox will throw his hat into the ring as well. It’s possible the Eagles could employ a rotation in the slot so there might not even be one true winner from this battle.Biggest storyline heading into training camp:Carson Wentz’s health status is the obvious answer here. The 25-year-old signal caller was having an MVP-caliber season before suffering an ACL tear in early December. From that moment, it was unclear if he’d be ready to start the beginning of the 2018 season. The good news is that Wentz’s recovery progress has been very encouraging. Some in the Eagles organization have described him as “shockingly ahead of schedule.” Wentz was a lot more involved in OTAs and minicamp than most expected him to be. He wasn’t participating in full team 11-on-11 drills, though, so that’s the next hurdle for him to clear. We’ll see how that goes in training camp. There’s definitely optimism that he’ll be ready to start in the NFL kickoff game on September 6.Under-the-radar storyline heading into training camp:Two of the Eagles’ biggest offseason departures took place in the coaching department. Former offensive coordinator Frank Reich is now the head coach of the Indianapolis Colts and former quarterbacks coach John DeFilippo is now the Minnesota Vikings’ offensive coordinator. It’ll be hard to gauge the impact of losing them until the season starts but this is certainly something to keep an eye on. Notable injuries heading into training camp:The list is so long that it’s easy to forget someone. Wentz is coming off the ACL. Alshon Jeffery isn’t expected to be ready until around Week 1 as he recovers from a torn rotator cuff. Timmy Jernigan had offseason surgery on a herniated disc in his back and will likely end up on the NFI/PUP list. Haloti Ngata missed all of spring practices as he recovers from torn biceps. Super Bowl hero Brandon Graham had offseason surgery on his ankle. Jordan Hicks wasn’t able to fully participate in spring practices. Chris Maragos didn’t practice at all as he recovers from a PCL injury. Besides Jernigan, there’s hope most of these players will be ready by Week 1. But we’ll have to see how they progress during the summer. ***The Saints have a tough stretch with the Falcons, Eagles, Rams, and Vikings within a 5-week period. The Eagles will likely be one of the toughest match-ups all season.So what says you, you unbiased Saints fans? Can the Saints knock down the defending Champs, or will they get humbled in the Dome?
