‘Defensively, keeping Von Miller on the physically unable to perform list to start the year makes plenty of sense. Again, it’s about peaking for games in January, not September, for this team. Middle linebacker is definitely a concern – it will be up to new play caller Sean McDermott to hide that position as much as possible. Otherwise, the defense looks deep and experienced everywhere else. The key for the defense will be to rise to the occasion in the big moments. If it does, the offense should do enough to put this team atop the AFC East for the fourth consecutive year.’
