Video: Von Miller gets candid about the role he'll be playing this year in Dallas

Miller says Dallas is not paying him to be a stat padder (cough Micah cough cough).

They are paying him to be a leader and a mentor. This is great news.
Yes, Micah is gone and we are not trying to replace his personality.
 
I need to hear a lot less from him, and see a lot more.

If he tells us the more time that he's the greatest teammate in NFL history, I'm going to puke.
 
I'm expecting 6-8 sacks and some mentoring from Miller. Realistically if below is what the leading sackers look like and then there's a host of other guys contributing 1-3 each I think the Cowboys could have a pretty formidable pass rush without having a superstar on the edge. Still hoping we have someone breakout to be that guy like Ezeiruaku, Lawrence, Houston, etc. but don't necessarily need that to be a good pass rushing team.

Gary- 8
Miller- 7
Williams- 6
Ezeiruaku- 6
 
Love a vet presence in the locker room. Especially on the defensive side of the ball, specifically the edge rusher room. It is needed and necessary.

However, my concern with the production from that edge position will not be alleviated until I see success on the field. Success equals sacks, pressures that lead to turnovers, and forcing indecision by the QB and OC.

If that comes from the young guys being guided by Von Miller, great. If it comes from Gary and Miller putting up numbers with Von Miller feeling underpaid, great. If it comes from them adding a true elite edge via trade, great. Just make it happen.

Lead by being a voice in the locker room and by example, please.

Sam Williams got cut
 
I'd be happy if he was the same as Clowney was last year.
That would be good.
Anything less and its kind of not worth it.
 
I just came back in here to see if anyone was complaining about Miller doing a podcast yet.
 
I am not expecting much so I won't be disappointed. But the Cowboys pass rush does concern me. We need a big year from Quinnen Williams
