The Los Angeles Rams are now just two wins away from bagging the Vince Lombardi trophy. For his part, Rams star Von Miller is already fantasizing about the prospect of winning the Super Bowl for what could potentially be the second time in his career.
According to Miller, however, above anything else, the main reason why he wants to take home the trophy is because of his Rams teammates:
“So many teammates on my team, this is really all they need,” Miller said, via the Rams’ official site. “Aaron Donald, this is all he needs, and he has the whole shabang, you know? Andrew Whitworth and Eric Weddle and all of these guys, I want to do for them. And I feel like that is what really drives me whenever I’m on the football field.”
Matthew Stafford is another man who has yet to get his hands on the Lombardi trophy and based on the outstanding season he's had with the Rams, there's also no denying that this man deserves to win the Super Bowl.
Miller has been in this situation before and he knows what it's going to take to win. His Super Bowl 50 MVP trophy serves as a clear testament to this fact. The 32-year-old veteran reiterated, however, that it's all about the people he shares the field with:
“There’s just one thing about the playoffs and these moments, you know – there isn’t another game after this unless you win, unless you perform well,” he said. “And I know, for me, I get the most out of myself whenever I’m doing something for somebody else, whenever I’m playing for somebody else.”
Let's not get ahead of ourselves, though. The Rams are set to face a tough test on Sunday when they battle the San Francisco 49ers for the NFC Championship. A victory is anything but guaranteed for Miller and Co. and they cannot overlook what the Niners are able to bring to the table. It has to be one win at a time for the Rams as they hope to take care of business on Sunday against a determined San Francisco side.
