5. Von Miller & Bradley Chubb show out

The fifth prediction is that Bradley Chubb and Von Miller will combine for 28 sacks and both earn a trip to the Pro Bowl.

In 2018, Miller sacked the quarterback 14.5 times and saw a drop in 2019 to just 8 sacks. Though Miller’s impact did not show up in the stat sheet, he was a constant force throughout the season. Often facing double and triple-teams without the presence of Chubb.

Chubb was lost for the year early in the season and saw his sack total drop from 12 in 2018 to one in his injury-shortened 2019. Chubb was not offered a Pro Bowl nod at the end of the 2018 season.

Expect all of that to change as Chubb will challenge for Comeback Player of the year and will be recognized at the end of the 2020 campaign.

The duo struggled to start the 2019 season before Chubb was injured. Look for a resurgence from the dynamic duo as Chubb will surprise some with the quality of his play upon return from injury while Miller will thrive with having his partner back.
