Odell Beckham Jr. and Von Miller: Warning against the Browns and a big dream

This past offseason, Von Miller and Odell Beckham Jr. set their sights very high during a joint camp. Ahead of their Los Angeles Rams’ championship game Sunday against the San Francisco 49ers, “only” one of their four dreams remains unfulfilled.

Munich – When Von Miller and Odell Beckham Jr. coached together last offseason, they had four bottom-line dreams, a few smaller ones, and one really big one.

Getting fit again was one, Miller had been out for a long time after an ankle injury, OBJ after tearing his cruciate ligament. That was the foundation.

Warning about the Cleveland Browns

Then they both wanted to get back to their old form, which had suffered for both superstars recently. And they also wanted to come together on one team. Yes, and then also win the Super Bowl. The wish list was complete.

They got fit. The rest fell into place a little later. “Don’t come to Cleveland,” OBJ had warned his buddy, according to Miller, the linebacker revealed to Sports Illustrated. So Miller stayed in Denver after rehab, Beckham in Cleveland. Neither of them was happy.

It wasn’t until Miller was traded to the Los Angeles Rams and the Californians, at Miller’s urging, signed Beckham after he parted ways with the Browns, that the rest worked out.

The two are playing together as hoped, wearing the same jersey for the first time on November 16. “It’s time, man,” Beckham said to him, according to Miller. “It’s time to put it all together. “

Just before the big game

No sooner said than done.

Because in strong form they are too, they are the guarantors of the Rams’ successful run. OBJ scored five touchdowns in eight games during the regular season, catching passes for 305 yards. In the playoffs, it’s another 123 yards and a touchdown. Miller contributed 37 tackles and seven sacks since his transfer.

And both will now take the team to the Super Bowl on Sunday against the San Francisco 49ers in the Championship Game. To actually tick off the wish list completely.
