Well, Von was a PBer at LILB in Fox's first year in 2011 then PBer and All Pro at same position the next year so couldn't help but place him there.

Again, Fox did lead two teams to a SB! And not only is he an eternally underrated NFL HC, but sort of an underrated 'QB guru'. People lately are ultra-quick to place Bill O'Brien (yes, Matt McGloin in NFL solely due to him) and Marc Trestman as poster-children for that very claim, but Fox may (for now) be even more-so the case despite his rep as a defensive mind. Jake Delhomme and Fox also being at-helm for an already-Legendary Peyton being even BETTER (after neck surgery, mind you)...yes, perhaps great assistants at his disposal, but it was ALL on Fox's watch! Of course MANY coaches better yet no one laughed when I posted the all-time Chuck Knox post. Great HC Chuck was, but he never led a team to a SB. Have a weird feeling Mitch Trubisky may make a name for himself this very year! Never know.

Are you sure about Miller playing inside as a rookie?

PFR shows the 2011 Broncos playing a 4-3. Miller is simply listed as LB, with Joe Mats playing MLB.

Other sites I checked show Miller to be a SLB.

I found some confirmation below.

This is my source. Could be inaccurate though.
