WATCH: Young Buffalo fan hilariously loses his mind over meeting Von Miller
The game of football can be a dangerous and unforgiving sport, especially at the NFL level. But every now and then, we are reminded of how the game and its players impact their fans in a positive way. Ahead of the Bills’ Monday night home opener against the Tennessee Titans, Buffalo’s offseason acquisition, Super Bowl MVP Von Miller, took some time to meet young fans & sign autographs. And that led to one of the most genuine reactions by a young fan meeting the NFL superstar and former Texas A&M Aggie. In the video below, the young man is overwhelmed with excitement meeting Miller, leading to this fantastic yet hilarious meeting between the two.
That young man received an experience he won’t soon forget. And the Titans received a beating on the field that will stay fresh in their minds for quite some time. Last season’s matchup between the two squads came down to a last-second play. This year, the game was decided by the third quarter.
Buffalo’s offense, led by MVP-candidate Josh Allen racked up 414 yards of total offense. Allen contributed 317 yards through the air along with four passing touchdowns and zero interceptions. Three of his passing touchdowns were hauled in by Stefon Diggs. The two-time Pro Bowler is making an argument as the best receiver in the NFL this season. Diggs had 12 catches for 148 yards, along with three touchdowns.

Miller led a relentless pass rush on defense, which stifled the Titans’ offense. The Buffalo defense recorded two sacks and two interceptions but most of all limited Tennessee’s superstar running back Derrick Henry to just 13 rushes for 25 yards and one touchdown.
Bills’ Bobby Hart suspended for throwing punch
Bills have suspended lineman Bobby Hart for one game after he threw a punch at a Titans player that hit a Tennessee coach. The former Florida State star received the suspension from the NFL after the incident took place on Monday night after the game, citing Hart’s behavior as aggressive and dangerous.
Hart received the news that he would be suspended without pay for one game after violating the league’s unsportsmanlike conduct rules on Monday night. According to the letter sent detailing his suspension, Hart traveled across the football field to where the Tennessee team was and started an incident that led to him swinging at a Tennessee player — hitting a coach in the process.
NFL Network‘s Tom Pelissero shared a portion of the letter Hart received detailing his suspension, written by NFL Vice President of Football Operations Jon Runyan.
“As both teams were headed to the tunnel, you walked directly across the field to seek out your opponent. You approached him near the end zone and a coach had to hold you back as others shook hands. Once you and your opponent were in the end zone near the tunnel, you confronted him and immediately swung at him with a closed fist, striking the head of a Tennessee coach. Your aggressive conduct could have caused serious injury and clearly does not reflect the high standards of sportsmanship expected of a professional.”
