When it comes to the art of pass rushing, none are better than Denver Broncos linebacker Von Miller. He annually puts together a Pass Rushing Summit alongside Chuck Smith Training Systems and it has helped a lot of young players tremendously in the early stages of their careers.
Jacksonville Jaguars pass rusher Josh Allen is one of many young students of the game who has had early success and found himself in this week’s Pro Bowl after a phenomenal 10.5 sack season. While there he’s seemingly took the time to pick Miller’s mind for some tips as the two were seen interacting before Thursday’s practice.

Allen and Miller got to see each other first-hand this regular season when the Jags went down to Denver for a nail-biter which the Jags won with a last second field goal from Josh Lambo. Now, they will be taking the field together Sunday for the Battle of the Conferences.
After seeing the two in cohesion, it appears the quarterbacks for the NFC are going to have a hard time getting passes off though the tackling will be toned down. That said, as talented as the NFC is, it also wouldn’t be a shocker to see Sunday’s game produce similar results as 2019’s game as the AFC won handily by a score of 26-7.
