With just under 10 minutes left in the second quarter Miller brought down the star quarterback for the first time in his career.

On Thursday Miller told reporters he's still looking for that first sack against the Colts quarterback.

"In my years of going against him, the respect that he should get I don't feel like I've given it to him," Miller said. "He's one of the best quarterbacks in the league.

"I haven't had a sack on him yet. I got close, but he just has that knack for keeping his eyes downfield, feeling defenses, still making great passes. And this year he looks even better."

Miller told reporters on Thursday he would like people to start referring to himself and linebacking teammate DeMarcus Ware as "The Splash Brothers." That's a reference to the dynamic duo from the Golden State Warriors Klay Thompson and Steph Curry.
