Few, if any, have the strength, quickness and know-how to pull off the takeaway Broncos linebacker Von Miller did last Sunday at Oakland.

In the third quarter, on a first-and-10 at Oakland’s 23-yard line, Miller came off the edge and snatched the ball out of the hands of Raiders quarterback Derek Carr, pulling Carr to the ground in one fell swoop.

The sack was his third of the season, but arguably his most impressive.

On Thursday, following the Broncos’ practice, Miller said it was a spurt-of-the-moment play that he decided within a split-second, not one he was expecting based on his film study.
