ST. JOSEPH, Mo. -- Even from far away at the Kansas City Chiefs training camp, linebacker Dee Ford couldn’t help but smile when he heard Von Miller of the Denver Broncos recently suggest that getting 30 sacks in a season was possible.
Ford, who attended Miller’s Pass Rush Summit in June in California, took Miller’s words as a challenge for all of the NFL’s top pass-rushers.
"I know Von," Ford said. “He’s trying to set the bar for all of us. I know his thinking. By him saying that, now we’re all thinking about 30.
