BLOOMINGTON, Minn. -- Von Miller and the Broncos have beaten the Patriots in a few big games over the years, most recently in the AFC championship two seasons ago.

In a Players' Tribune story, Miller detailed how to beat them, although he acknowledged it isn't easy.


"To beat the Patriots, you have to sack Tom Brady," Miller wrote. "You need to do it with a legit threat coming from both sides while rushing only four guys, and you have to do it for four quarters. You have to play mistake-free football. You can't get caught up in the Tom Brady hype or the Patriots lore. You have to play your game.

"I could add in a lot of other little things, like you not letting Tom dink and dunk you to death … getting off the field on third down … having an offense that can score points, because you know Tom's always gonna get his. You need all that, too.

"Basically, to beat the Patriots, you need to play the perfect game.

"And then you need a little luck.

"You need the football gods to bless you. You need a helmet catch or something crazy to go your way at just the right time."

Miller says the Eagles do have a chance in Super Bowl LII, but of course it will be tough.
