The New England Patriots are able to overcome the occasional breakdown in pass protection as a direct result of Tom Brady's unmatched ability to get the ball out of his hands on time.
While the Patriots should have the potential to limit an explosive Denver Broncos pass rush this week as result, linebacker Von Miller doesn't seem to care how quickly Brady sets up to throw, even if Brady only needed two seconds per pass against the Kansas City Chiefs.
"You said two seconds? Sometimes I only need one," Miller said Wednesday, according to Michael David Smith of Pro Football Talk.
"It's quick, we're just going to have to be tight in the secondary and that little window we get, we have to get there," Miller added. "No excuses, we just have to get there, plain and simple."
Once again arguably the NFL's top edge-rusher, Miller's performance will have a significant impact on the outcome of Sunday's AFC Championship Game.
His 11 sacks throughout the regular season, including one against the Patriots in Week 12, led the way for Denver's defense in finishing with a league-best 52 as a team.
