No one made you chase the money...

His "daddy" kind of did made him.

Ever see the mini-documentary following Miller in the days leading-up to his decision to sign with Buffalo?

I think Miller is a good guy and a great player but the way he allowed himself to be controlled was amazing.

It's getting comical at this point. Buffalo, Denver, Dallas, LA.... STFU already. He sounds off balance to me....

How much money do you need vs. quality of life?

So Long Von! And, I don't care if the door does hit you in the ass!

He was just in LA to get his ring...together again with his old teammates, probably reminded him of what he left behind...

Von's always been emotional.....he was when he got to the Rams, he was when he left......

I'll say it if no one else does this guy is full of shit. He said he wanted to go to Dallas. He and his agent knew the Rams couldn't get near their asking price and I'm not sure he really even cared. To me he is shallow and totally surface with his PR facade.

He recognized the value of what the Rams and AD could do for him and he took full advantage. Do you really think Denver would have let him go to the Rams if they thought Von was a 120m player NO WAY get real. Sure if they were in a rebuild mode I'd let Von go to the NFC, but the difference here is Von was on an ascending team with lots of promise.

Buffalo bought into this guy's BS. Let's see how he does in Buffalo. He maybe propped up slightly because their offense is dominant leading to a lot of pressures and potentially sacks due to the other team playing from behind we shall see. But he is not playing with anyone close to AD/Floyd/Gaines/AShawn IMO.

Just shows how difficult some of the decisions are for the players. Stay in LA which is a city that offers a ton and fits your personality, play next to the greatest player you've ever lined up with, for arguably the best coach in the NFL...or choose to make an extra $20-30M which will help provide generational wealth for your family. I get it was a tough decision but fuck man were like a month from the season starting and he cant stop talking about his regret. Its like every time he comes back to LA and sees the guys like for the ring ceremony last weekend he realizes how much he fucked up.

I'll take Allen Robinson over Miller any day. Add B Wagner, and its a no brainer. This is a much better team with those two guys than with Von.

I think what irks many of us is he seemingly couldn’t get out of LA fast enough. His ideal scenario would’ve been Dallas but they weren’t into it, then Buffalo “chose” him.
Sure, whatever. Von didn’t choose LA, so he kinda fell into the deal, but it turned out pretty damn sweet. But he wanted to make the decision for the first time in his life and now he’s experiencing the negative aspects. “Be careful what you wish for…, “the grass is always greener…, “don’t make Life decisions based on money…
I’m kinda over it, maybe it’s gonna turn out better for both sides.

What bothers me is that there was no loyalty to the Rams. They traded a 2nd and a 3rd round pick for him and he took advantage of them. I was hoping that he may have honored that by staying with them for the last part of his career. He could chase another ring AND he was playing next to a generational talent in Aaron Donald. Throw in his best friend, OBJ, and the fact that he also liked living in LA. But NOOOOOOO.. he loved being in the spotlight again, something he missed in the last couple of years with Denver, and his ego got in the way. No way will he play for 3 more years and I do not believe he will ever be the player we saw last year. I'm glad he's bummed about moving to Buffalo. He is missing the Rams more than they are missing him.

PS - To see him in that room celebrating with the Rams made me sick. At least we know he was crying on the inside.

They do have one heck of a team in Western, NY, however, I'm hoping we kick their ass come Thursday Nigh in September.
