Any doubt surrounding Von Miller’s potential greatness could’ve been hushed, temporarily at least, when he forced a fumble on his first-ever NFL drive; by Week 2, Denver’s new gamechanger was already zeroed in on a different milestone. Enjoying a pass rusher’s dream scenario — a late-game lead, with the opposition forced to drop back play-after-play — 2011’s No. 2 pick took full advantage, teleporting off the edge to engulf Cincinnati’s quarterback for the first of 110-and-a-half sacks in the Mile High. The end results were just as celebratory, as Denver survived for a 24-22 win over the Bengals on Sept. 18, 2011, with Miller tallying one sack, two passes defended, and three tackles.
