ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — It’s no secret Von Miller is good at football. And, yes, good is a drastic understatement.

But the starter opposite the six-time Pro Bowler and three-time, First-team All-Pro, Bradley Chubb is an unknown, at least in terms of what he can do against NFL competition.

On Wednesday, Seattle Seahawks’ head coach Pete Carroll made it perfectly clear, though, that to him, Chubb is anything but an unknown.

“Bradley did a lot of really good things during the preseason,” the 66-year old said in his obligatory press conference with the Denver media on Wednesday. “He was very comfortable. The scheme fits him. The style of play fits him. He’s a big, physical kid that really looks like he’s on top of his game already. They obviously got a great guy and it’s going to be a great compliment to their defense.”

By the way Carroll talks about him, it’s no wonder Denver’s defensive coordinator Joe Woods nearly fainted when the Cleveland Browns passed on the 6-foot-4, 269-pound pass rusher, letting him fall to the Broncos at No. 5 overall.

During the preseason, opposing teams weren’t shy to attack No. 55. However, he held his own fairly well — racking up nine tackles and half a sack in what was equivalent to one game’s work.

Chubb, with significant help from Mitchell Trubisky, was also responsible for one of the two safeties in the entire NFL during the preseason.

It’s safe to say, the rookie won’t be surprising Seattle’s offense during his first career game, especially if he performs well.

Another player that certainly won’t be surprising the Seahawks is 2011’s No. 2-overall pick, Von Miller.

“It’s been clear from Von’s play for a long time, and the great performer that he is and producer, you got problems with him, whether you had anybody on the other side or not,” Carroll simply stated.

After saying Miller’s “one of the best player in the game of football, ever,” Seahawks’ quarterback Russell Wilson said the key is always knowing where he is on the field.

“When you’re playing LeBron James, or you’re playing guys like Kobe Bryant or Steph Curry, they’re going to make their plays. He’s one of those guys for sure,” Wilson said, playing the game of praising his next opponent.

What happens when Von gets someone on the other side? According to the oldest coach in the game, it makes for a deadly combination.

“You can’t get much better,” Carroll stated when asked about Miller and Chubb. “You can’t get much more athletic. You can’t get much more playmaking out of your two edge guys.”

Just how John Elway drew it up back in April’s draft.

When the Broncos won Super Bowl 50, they had a dangerous defense — third-best against the run and best against the pass — led by the league’s best pass rush, racking up 52 sacks.

Last year, as the team went a disappointing 5-11, the pass rush faltered, only compiling only 33 sacks.

Behind the No. 2 and No. 5 pick overall picks, in their respective drafts, Denver now has a wealth of talent at outside linebacker with Shane Ray and Shaq Barrett in the fold, as well.

On the other side of things, the Seahawks got a six-time Pro-Bowler and three-time, first-team All-Pro of their own back on Wednesday. Safety Earl Thomas reported to the team for the first time all season on Wednesday.

Carroll wouldn’t give any indication whether or not Thomas will play against the Broncos on Sunday, simply saying, “We have met. We’ll let you know.”

In a frustrated tone, the Seahawks’ head coach said Thomas will have to prove “all kinds of stuff” in order to play against Denver.

“I don’t know what kind of shape he’s in,” Carroll said. “We’ll figure it out.”

Despite the noncommittal answer by Carroll, it is expected Thomas will play and could have a major role.

Case Keenum deemed the former first-round pick “one of the best I’ve ever played against,” also calling him “a special player.”

“He does some things on film that nobody else can do, which is a guy — you need to know where he’s at at all times,” Denver’s quarterback said on Wednesday. “He can play his assignment from almost anywhere on the field. Knowing where he’s at, he’s a heck of a player. I guarantee you he can step in and be right where he wants to be.”

In 2015, when Seattle’s safety Kam Chancellor returned from his holdout on the Wednesday during Week 3, the star safety ended up playing in 37 of the team’s 47 defensive snaps.

Based off that precedent, Keenum and Co. can expect to face Thomas on Sunday.

But that won’t help Carroll’s offense go up against one of the best playmaking edge duos in the league.
