DENVER -- Von Miller sack-stripping the quarterback with the game on the line, doing a little celebration dance after his teammate scores the game-sealing touchdown moments later.Seven months after his sack-strip of Cam Newton led the Broncos to the Super Bowl title, Miller did it again Sunday, punching the ball from Andrew Lucks grasp in the closing minutes and sealing Denvers 34-20 win over the Indianapolis Colts.Just like last year.Only, this isnt a deja vu defense to Denver cornerback Chris Harris Jr.Its better.At this point last year, we dont think were this solid like we were today, Harris said following Denvers latest badgering of an elite QB. We didnt shut down Andrew Luck at this time last year. Now, were ahead of the game.The Broncos sent Luck to the hospital last year with a lacerated kidney and torn abdominal muscle but still left the Lucas Oil Stadium 27-24 losers on that November night.While Lucks season was over, the Broncos went on to win Super Bowl 50 thanks to a defense that was so dominant it drew comparisons to Pittsburghs Steel Curtain units of the 1970s, the `85 Bears and the turn-of-the-century Ravens.Thats why Harris didnt understand all the predictions of doom and gloom when the Broncos lost Peyton Manning to retirement and Brock Osweiler to free agency along with defensive starters Malik Jackson and Danny Trevathan.They still had Miller & Co., didnt they?Jackson cashed in with the Jaguars but the Broncos werent about to pay top dollar to a player who was, at best, their sixth-best defensive player, and Trevathan wasnt even on the field but about one-third of the snaps.So, the Broncos (2-0) gladly played the Rodney Dangerfield card all offseason: Nobody was giving them the respect they felt they had earned by mauling Newton and the Carolina Panthers 24-10 in the Super Bowl.Thats fine, they would just duplicate last years pre-eminence. They put away their diamond-encrusted rings and pledged to go out this season and be even nastier and carry new QB Trevor Siemian if they had to.They delivered by hitting Newton 17 times in their win over Carolina in the NFL opener.Even with Luck avoiding the kinds of big hits he absorbed last time these teams met, the Colts QB still was hit 19 times Sunday.That included five sacks, three from Miller.Hes like a shark when theres blood in the water, defensive end Derek Wolfe said. He just gets going faster and faster.With the Broncos clinging to a six-point lead with 1:51 left, Miller said one thought went through his mind:Its time to close.And he did it, sweeping past left tackle Joe Reitz and punching the ball out of Lucks hands . Fellow linebacker Shane Ray scooped it up and raced 15 yards for the touchdown.It was Von Miller being Von Miller, lamented Colts coach Chuck Pagano. We did a great job on him at some points in the game. But hes a great, great player and he made a great, great play.Like Luck, Miller signed a big contract in the offseason and when training camp began, GM John Elway admonished him to treat the regular season like he had the playoffs, when he tormented Ben Roethlisberger, Tom Brady and Newton in delivering the franchise its first championship since Elway was in the huddle.Miller has delivered so far with four sacks.Cornerback Aqib Talib also had a 46-yard pick-6 early in the fourth quarter, meaning Rays first career TD marked the 10th time in franchise history the Broncos scored twice on defense.Talib stepped in front of wide receiver Phillip Dorsett to snag Lucks pass, which he returned through traffic down Denvers jubilant sideline. His ninth career pick-6 was his fifth for Denver, a franchise record.The good thing about Aqib is if he ever gets his hands on the ball, hes not only a DB, hes a returner, coach Gary Kubiak said.I practice it, Talib said. When I get an interception in practice, I go score on it. Practice makes perfect.Plus, he used to play receiver, Demaryius Thomas noted, so its nothing new.After DQwell Jackson stuffed C.J. Anderson on third-and-1 from the Colts 17 and Brandon McManuss 35-yard field goal made it 26-20 with 1:51 left, the Broncos knew Luck would want to go to the air with no timeouts left.Safety T.J. Ward said Kubiaks decision to kick the field goal didnt show a lack of faith in the offense but just shows his confidence in us.His dazzling defense.The one that keeps getting dismissed. And disrespected.For anyone still sleeping on this defense, linebacker Brandon Marshall said, Im pretty sure we woke them up today.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and AP NFL Twitter feed: www.twitter.com/AP-NFL---Follow AP Pro Football Writer Arnie Melendrez Stapleton on Twitter: http://twitter.com/arniestapleton Womens Adidas Superstar x Pharrell Williams Supercolor Casual Shoes Semi Solar Pink . Anthony Davis had 31 points and 17 rebounds in his seventh straight game with more than 20 points, but that was only enough to keep the Pelicans competitive into the final minutes. Andrew Bogut had 10 points and 15 rebounds for Golden State, which rebounded from a loss a night earlier in Oklahoma City and snapped a two-game skid.

Tuesdays surgery at Atlantas Piedmont Hospital was performed by Dr. Xavier Duralde and Hawks team physician Dr. Michael Bernot. Air Max 90 Cheap Online . -- Lou Brocks shoulder-to-shoulder collision with Bill Freehan during the 1968 World Series and Pete Roses bruising hit on Ray Fosse in the 1970 All-Star game could become relics of baseball history, like the dead-ball era. Nike Roshe One BT QS Black/Iridescence Mens/Womens Shoes . - Goaltender Philippe Desrosiers of the Rimouski Oceanic has broken a shutout record that was only three months old in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League. The bottom two clubs in the Premier League meet on Saturday in a clash that already has the hallmark of a game that could define the season.Stoke City (0-3-4) and Sunderland (0-2-5) are both winless and separated by just a point at the foot of the table, while no other clubs in the English top-flight are yet to record a victory this season.And although its too early to describe any game in the division as a relegation tussle, the performances shown by both the Potters and the Black Cats in the opening two months of the campaign suggest that defeat in this game would leave either side with a lot of soul-searching to do before being able to find enough form to pull clear of danger.However, despite the pressure on the result, Stoke City boss Mark Hughes is arriving into Saturdays encounter with a surprisingly high level of confidence, with the coach looking to project as many positives as possible from his teams draw with Manchester United last time outWere the home side and if we play as well as weve done in recent weeks then we should (win), Hughes told reporters in his Thursday media conference. I think weve seen good signs in recent weeks -- we played really, really well at Old Trafford and deservedly got the point.Everybody can see weve been working hard and were trying to get that first win on the board. When we do I think that everybody believes that were going to go on from that point. It needs to happen at the weekend and Im fully confident that well be in good shape to look to make it happen.Sunderland also picked up a positive result last timme out, drawing 1-1 with West Bromwich Albion to double their points tally from the previous six matches.ddddddddddddowever, manager David Moyes has yet to settle on an effective starting lineup since taking over at the club in the summer, and he hasnt been helped by a growing injury list.Jan Kirchhoff, Jason Denayer, Adnan Januzaj, Fabio Borini and Vito Mannone are all absent, while Victor Anichebe, Lee Cattermole and Steven Pienaar are also doubts for this contest.The pile up of fitness concerns is particularly damaging given the lack of depth in the Black Cats squad, and midfielder Sebastien Larsson -- who remains out with a long-term ligament injury -- says that lack of wins from the team makes being stuck on the treatment table doubly frustrating.The start to the season weve had makes it worse, the Swede said. Its hard enough being on the sidelines and getting your head around that, going to the games and supporting the boys when you know you arent going to be involved for a while.When weve scored Ive been jumping up and down… as best I could!I am fully focused on my recovery and my rehab, but at the same time I try to get myself as much involved as I can with the lads and help out and push them on and use my experience.Stoke arent short of their own injury problems, with Jack Butland, Stephen Ireland and Ibrahim Afellay all out and Glen Johnson and Joe Allen both doubts after picking up knocks on international duty.
