“If I ain’t getting no sacks they holding me” Von before SB50
Ware is such a cool classy guy. He was instrumental (with Manning) in bringing the mentality that got us over the top. I’m glad he still follows the team.
"Hall of Fame edge rusher DeMarcus Ware will watch on television Monday night when the Broncos play at Buffalo. And it won’t be easy.
Ware played for the Broncos from 2014-16 and follows them closely. But they will be going against Ware’s good friend, edge rusher Von Miller, who played for Denver from 2011-21 and with the Bills will face his former team for the first time.
“I’m torn,’’ Ware told The Denver Gazette. “I’m a Von Miller fan, so I’ll be rooting for Von. But I’m also a Denver Broncos fan. It’s hard.”
How close is Ware to Miller? When Ware was a free agent in 2014 and searching for a new team, Miller called him and that sealed the deal on his decision to join the Broncos.
“I remember that call like it was yesterday,’’ Ware said. “He said, ‘I want you to be by my locker.’’’
Ware, who played for Dallas from 2005-13, had gotten to know Miller before the 2011 draft, when he was the No. 2 pick by Denver out of Texas A&M. Miller is from DeSoto, Texas, a Dallas suburb, and the two became fast friends and worked out together at times during the offseason."
I saw a discussion going around about this and this article is a bit longer if you’d like to read on, then it is not paywalled. Article by Chris Tomasson.
I’m not crying, we’re all crying
I love me some D Ware man. It’ll be hard on everyone for sure.
