9
00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:43,640
Speaker 1: Burrow for thirty minutes is going to be coming up

10
00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:46,800
Speaker 1: in about five minutes. And you know, I was thinking

11
00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:49,120
Speaker 1: about something as I looked at some of the teams

12
00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:58,160
Speaker 1: struggling offensively in the NFL Tennessee, Indianapolis, Chicago, and I

13
00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:02,520
Speaker 1: was thinking to myself, there's thirty two teams in the NFL,

14
00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:09,080
Speaker 1: like there are certain either coastal or glamor franchises La Miami,

15
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:13,720
Speaker 1: San Francisco, Vegas, New York, Philadelphia, Seattle. They're sort of

16
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:17,840
Speaker 1: coastal or in some instances like Vegas there glamor cities.

17
00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:23,000
Speaker 1: Have you noticed how good the wide receiver plays in

18
00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:26,240
Speaker 1: those leagues and the weapons are in those leagues and

19
00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:28,760
Speaker 1: the teams that are still driven by our running back.

20
00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:36,720
Speaker 1: Green Bay, Cleveland, Indianapolis, Tennessee, Chicago are often Midwest cities.

21
00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:38,840
Speaker 1: I don't know this to be true, but it's just

22
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:41,959
Speaker 1: something that was banging around in my head is that

23
00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:46,160
Speaker 1: the Midwest part of the country is obviously less glamorous,

24
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:50,200
Speaker 1: but it's more conservative. They vote conservative, they live more conservatively.

25
00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:54,840
Speaker 1: It's more about tradition. Coastal cities are you know, let's

26
00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:57,880
Speaker 1: be honest, most of the coastal cities I've lived in

27
00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:02,480
Speaker 1: your Miami's, You're LA, You're Sanford, Cisco, New York. You know,

28
00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:05,960
Speaker 1: only about half the people that live there are from there.

29
00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:10,320
Speaker 1: And I think young athletes are more prone NBA, NFL,

30
00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:12,160
Speaker 1: there are cities they want to live in. They want

31
00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:15,399
Speaker 1: to Let me look at the Dodgers ability, the Yankees ability.

32
00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:18,760
Speaker 1: You know, players like to live when they're young in

33
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:21,079
Speaker 1: the coastal cities and the glamour cities. There's just more

34
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:24,560
Speaker 1: to do. And I was thinking to myself as the

35
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:27,720
Speaker 1: NFL in the last five years, wide receivers have become

36
00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:34,640
Speaker 1: significantly more valuable. Look at outside of Kansas City, which

37
00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:38,680
Speaker 1: is Andy Reid, who's been the great offensive innovator post

38
00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:41,440
Speaker 1: Bill Walsh in the NFL for twenty twenty five years,

39
00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:46,760
Speaker 1: so take him out of it. Our Midwestern teams struggling

40
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:51,720
Speaker 1: and adapting with building rosters. In twenty twenty two, Chicago

41
00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:55,400
Speaker 1: first two picks a corner and a safety, old lines

42
00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:58,359
Speaker 1: of mass receiving cores of mess. They have a new quarterback,

43
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:04,040
Speaker 1: their sensibility defense running the ball, Green Bay let Davonte

44
00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:07,800
Speaker 1: Adams go. What do they want to win with this year? Defense?

45
00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:11,320
Speaker 1: In a running game? Indianapolis, what's their weakness? Outside of

46
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:15,880
Speaker 1: Michael Pittman, they have no receivers running in defense. Cleveland

47
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:18,960
Speaker 1: got a great running back, Miles Garrett. In that pass

48
00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:25,720
Speaker 1: rush where they finished weapons wide receiver Tennessee AJ Brown

49
00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:30,600
Speaker 1: goes running in defense with variable I'm just throwing it

50
00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:34,480
Speaker 1: out there. The coastal cities are more glamorous. They attract

51
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:39,080
Speaker 1: more star receivers, and they're more prone and willing. They

52
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:41,080
Speaker 1: have a lot of young gms on a lot of

53
00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:44,880
Speaker 1: these coastal cities, and they're more aggressive. They're more willing

54
00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:48,520
Speaker 1: to take big swings. It's a less conservative place to live,

55
00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:53,920
Speaker 1: be in business or life. And I mean, like Tom

56
00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:57,760
Speaker 1: Brady was going to choose Miami, the Chargers or Tampa.

57
00:03:57,880 --> 00:03:59,800
Speaker 1: Now you say, well, Tampa is not a big well

58
00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:08,160
Speaker 1: on the coast. Weapons, Miami weapons, Philadelphia weapons, Rams, weapons, Chargers, weapons,

59
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:12,080
Speaker 1: Niners weapons, Seahawks weapons, I count you know, Vegas in

60
00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 1: Arizona for the record, though not a coastal city, it's

61
00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 1: a west coast city. And it's just interesting. I look

62
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:21,920
Speaker 1: around at some of these gems who I like the Midwest,

63
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:24,760
Speaker 1: four or five of the worst receiving corps in the

64
00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:26,839
Speaker 1: league right now, the thinnest. They're all in the same

65
00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:34,040
Speaker 1: geographical footprint. Cleveland, Green Bay, Indianapolis, Tennessee by the way, Dallas,

66
00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:37,040
Speaker 1: which is a glamorous city. So I don't really classify them,

67
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:40,839
Speaker 1: but Jerry Jones as these aged pass rush it's run games.

68
00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:44,240
Speaker 1: Zeke will be leading us. I know it's weird and

69
00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:47,640
Speaker 1: there are exceptions, but it is kind of I'm kind

70
00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:51,000
Speaker 1: of fascinated by the league right now. In the last

71
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:54,599
Speaker 1: four to five years, has made this massive pivot to

72
00:04:54,960 --> 00:05:00,240
Speaker 1: offense and wide receivers and big trades. Is it possible

73
00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:03,000
Speaker 1: the glamour cities and the coastal cities are more prepared

74
00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:06,200
Speaker 1: for it. I don't know, could be wrong stuff to

75
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:11,600
Speaker 1: think about. So the Nathaniel Hackett Russell Wilson. Drama in

76
00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:14,960
Speaker 1: Denver is a very real thing. But it is interesting

77
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:19,240
Speaker 1: as I watch Sean McDermott when he first arrived in Buffalo,

78
00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:24,520
Speaker 1: Sean McVay when he first arrived in la Lincoln Riley

79
00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:29,440
Speaker 1: when he first arrived in USC, Sabin when he first

80
00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:33,640
Speaker 1: arrived in Alabama, Belichick when he first arrived in New England.

81
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:40,719
Speaker 1: Coaches usually clean up and or master their side of

82
00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:44,880
Speaker 1: the ball very quickly. Lincoln Riley has fixed USC's offense

83
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:48,760
Speaker 1: in six months. McVeigh did it in six months. If

84
00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:50,960
Speaker 1: you look at McDermott and Belichick, they got the bills

85
00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:53,080
Speaker 1: in the Patriots defenses right. It took a while to

86
00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:56,120
Speaker 1: find Brady in Cleveland. It was the defense that led him.

87
00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:59,119
Speaker 1: They couldn't figure out the quarterback. But what's troubling about

88
00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:02,359
Speaker 1: Denver is Nathaniel Hackett's an offensive guy, and it's the

89
00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:05,600
Speaker 1: defense that's the strength of the Broncos. The offense is

90
00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:09,599
Speaker 1: the shit show. So I was saying on FS one yesterday,

91
00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:12,120
Speaker 1: if you had a restaurant, you love the bar, you

92
00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:14,080
Speaker 1: love the ambiance, you love the staff, and you love

93
00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:16,919
Speaker 1: the location, but you didn't love your food, and you

94
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:19,279
Speaker 1: brought in a chef and the food got worse, you'd

95
00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:21,880
Speaker 1: be like, I whiffed on the chef. Everything else in

96
00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:26,400
Speaker 1: the restaurant's good. What's troubling about Denver and Hackett? He

97
00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:30,560
Speaker 1: should be able to button up the offense quickly. That's

98
00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:33,400
Speaker 1: his side of the ball. And then you hear Aaron

99
00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:36,039
Speaker 1: Rodgers saying, oh, I love Nathaniel Hackett. He was my

100
00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:38,479
Speaker 1: drinking buddy and we played darts and he made me laugh.

101
00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:42,839
Speaker 1: Excuse me, That's not what I'm looking for, So I

102
00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:44,960
Speaker 1: think it. The troubling part is the offense is in

103
00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:48,240
Speaker 1: total disarray and he's been there for like four months.

104
00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:54,280
Speaker 1: I mean timeouts, Burningham situational disaster. They can't figure out

105
00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:56,720
Speaker 1: their play calling on third down. They got the wrong

106
00:06:56,760 --> 00:07:01,239
Speaker 1: personnel in. That is a huge concern. Great offensive coaches

107
00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:05,240
Speaker 1: they don't have to win big. But Doug Peterson and Jacksonville,

108
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:07,479
Speaker 1: what have you noticed two games in They've got the

109
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:12,800
Speaker 1: offense figured out. Doug Peterson, former NFL quarterback, he got

110
00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:15,520
Speaker 1: Nick Foles to win a Super Bowl. I'm not saying

111
00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:21,920
Speaker 1: Doug Peterson's a great coach, but wherever he goes Kansas City, Philadelphia, Jacksonville.

112
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:25,520
Speaker 1: He gets the offense figured out. Hacketts an offensive guy.

113
00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:29,680
Speaker 1: It's the most disorganized offense with good personnel in the league.

114
00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:35,400
Speaker 1: That's a huge problem, a huge red flag. So everybody

115
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:40,200
Speaker 1: freaked out when the transfer portal became official and the

116
00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:44,920
Speaker 1: name image likeness sweepstakes became official. And I said at

117
00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:48,720
Speaker 1: the time, listen, it's going to take about a season

118
00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:51,520
Speaker 1: to get your arms around it and to manage it.

119
00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:55,480
Speaker 1: It's a little wild wild West, but it will be okay. Well,

120
00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:58,720
Speaker 1: as anybody noticed, you can no longer enter the transfer

121
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:03,080
Speaker 1: portal during the season. Wasn't that one of the things

122
00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:06,240
Speaker 1: we touched on. Transfer portals great, but you don't want

123
00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:10,280
Speaker 1: coaches leaving from Labor Day to December fifteenth. You don't

124
00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:12,640
Speaker 1: want players leaving and going to a rival team before

125
00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:16,480
Speaker 1: a big game. So slowly but surely, the transfer portal

126
00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:20,000
Speaker 1: now is much more manageable. You can't enter it during

127
00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:22,760
Speaker 1: this season. If you've got weaknesses in week eight, their

128
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:25,240
Speaker 1: weaknesses in week thirteen, and you have to deal with it.

129
00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:30,000
Speaker 1: Even the NFL has like trading deadlines. I'm told the

130
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:33,360
Speaker 1: NIL they're getting their arms around it. They'd like to

131
00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:38,160
Speaker 1: get out of the paying high school football player business,

132
00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:40,840
Speaker 1: and that college football in the NCAA will set up

133
00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:44,920
Speaker 1: some guidelines, so you have to be in school to

134
00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:51,760
Speaker 1: be compensated in name, image, and likeness. Everything's met with outrage.

135
00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:57,040
Speaker 1: Everybody freaks out. Take a deep breath. I've said this

136
00:08:57,120 --> 00:09:00,440
Speaker 1: about COVID. We were experimenting for the first four to

137
00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:04,760
Speaker 1: six months. Doctors, hospitals were making it up as they went.

138
00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:10,280
Speaker 1: When something unexpected happens, expect a little chaos early. It

139
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:14,439
Speaker 1: doesn't matter if it's tech. The transfer portal a pandemic,

140
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:20,200
Speaker 1: but the transfer portal. Now, take a deep breath. Can't

141
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:22,600
Speaker 1: transfer in season. That's the way it should be. That

142
00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:24,920
Speaker 1: was our number one concern. You shouldn't be able to

143
00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:27,760
Speaker 1: go from Michigan to Ohio State in the middle of

144
00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:30,679
Speaker 1: a season and give trade secrets. Nil. I don't have

145
00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:32,599
Speaker 1: a problem with paying players. I just don't think you

146
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:37,280
Speaker 1: should have bidding wars for high school juniors and seniors.

147
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:40,280
Speaker 1: So it's all going to work out. Take a deep breath.

199
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:45,679
Speaker 1: you arguably played on the greatest college football team I've

200
00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:49,360
Speaker 1: ever seen. I mean it was like fifteen NFL guys,

201
00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:53,960
Speaker 1: now that you've pivoted to the NFL, I grew up

202
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:56,719
Speaker 1: first as a kid as a college football fan, and

203
00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:59,760
Speaker 1: then now you know, my business, it's seventy thirty eight

204
00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:04,840
Speaker 1: twenty NFL on Saturdays, because you guys travel on Fridays.

205
00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:08,680
Speaker 1: I think, so on Saturdays, do you still go old

206
00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:11,240
Speaker 1: school and watch college football games and check out the

207
00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:13,520
Speaker 1: SEC in the Big Ten? Because I'll always be drawn

208
00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:16,000
Speaker 1: to it, Joe, my entire life I'm nine years old,

209
00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:19,280
Speaker 1: remember sitting there watching the Huskies and Don James when

210
00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:22,360
Speaker 1: I'm in high school. What are your Saturdays like before

211
00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:25,040
Speaker 1: a game? Yeah, we have meetings a lot of the

212
00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:28,040
Speaker 1: day or we're traveling, and so I'll throw on a

213
00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:30,040
Speaker 1: game if I can. And like you, I grew up,

214
00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:31,959
Speaker 1: I didn't watch the NFL. I was a college football fan,

215
00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:34,959
Speaker 1: so I'll watch LSU. They're usually have a night game

216
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:38,240
Speaker 1: that I can watch Ohio State. I tried to, but

217
00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:40,760
Speaker 1: I don't get to watch as much as I probably

218
00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:43,400
Speaker 1: would like to. Yeah, it was funny. I talked to

219
00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:46,320
Speaker 1: Urban Meyer once before he took an NFL job, and

220
00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:49,240
Speaker 1: he told me, he goes, I've never watched football on Sundays.

221
00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:51,720
Speaker 1: I'm like, Urban, you may not want to take that

222
00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:53,880
Speaker 1: job and make it up on the fly because it's

223
00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:58,679
Speaker 1: really really hard. Is there anything about pro football like

224
00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:02,720
Speaker 1: I've always thought the college football pass interference rule is

225
00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:05,320
Speaker 1: much better than the NFL pass interference rule. But if

226
00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:07,960
Speaker 1: I trip you, it could be a fifty eight yard penalty.

227
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:11,760
Speaker 1: I think that's insane. That's the part of I don't

228
00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:14,360
Speaker 1: like the college football overtime much. But is there part

229
00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:19,000
Speaker 1: of college football you actually thought was smarter from like

230
00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:24,080
Speaker 1: an organizational management standpoint than pro football. Nope, I don't

231
00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:27,640
Speaker 1: think so. I think I think I hate the targeting rule.

232
00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:29,800
Speaker 1: I don't think anybody should get kicked out of the

233
00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:34,160
Speaker 1: game for a play that's made in the moment. I

234
00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:39,120
Speaker 1: think I think the NFL is just a superior product. Yeah.

235
00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:41,280
Speaker 1: So I made this comment the other day in the air.

236
00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:43,560
Speaker 1: I said, I'm going to give you three quarterbacks. They're

237
00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:47,520
Speaker 1: all really good, Burrow, Stafford, Brady. They all have something

238
00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:51,200
Speaker 1: in common. They all miss practice because of different reasons,

239
00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:54,840
Speaker 1: two of them surgeries or physical stuff, one of them

240
00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:58,520
Speaker 1: a family issue. They didn't play in the preseason, and

241
00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 1: all three of them had changes on the offensive line.

242
00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:05,080
Speaker 1: And I said, there's no way you can say in

243
00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:09,560
Speaker 1: Week one they're gonna have it together. Brady scrapped, Stafford scrapped,

244
00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:12,680
Speaker 1: and your guys offense scrapped. I thought in the second

245
00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:16,800
Speaker 1: half against Dallas, I was like, Oh, okay, here it goes.

246
00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:20,120
Speaker 1: I honestly felt like as a viewer, I thought the

247
00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:23,160
Speaker 1: light came on, you felt more comfortable. That was as

248
00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:25,640
Speaker 1: a consumer that's what I saw. Did that happen? Because

249
00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:27,840
Speaker 1: I thought you were so much more comfortable for the

250
00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:30,560
Speaker 1: first half of football this year. I was like, Okay,

251
00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:34,400
Speaker 1: that's Joe Burrow, that's the offense that works. Yeah, that

252
00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:36,880
Speaker 1: was you know, we got the quick game going a

253
00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:40,040
Speaker 1: little bit. We you know, we had twenty one play

254
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:42,960
Speaker 1: drive in there, so we kind of warmed down. Offensive

255
00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:45,920
Speaker 1: line was playing great, we were completing balls, moving the

256
00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:48,960
Speaker 1: ball down the field, running for first downs, and so

257
00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:51,280
Speaker 1: I thought the second half we really picked it up.

258
00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:54,440
Speaker 1: First half, you know, we just got behind the chain

259
00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:57,240
Speaker 1: so much. We were first and fifteen three times, and

260
00:15:57,280 --> 00:15:59,200
Speaker 1: first and fifteen in the NFL, it's gonna be really

261
00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:01,360
Speaker 1: hard to get a first. So we got to eliminate

262
00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:05,360
Speaker 1: those penalties, stay on track, stay in front of the chains,

263
00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:08,240
Speaker 1: and then we're not going to get all these third

264
00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:12,720
Speaker 1: down exotic stunts from the defensive lines that we're playing.

265
00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:15,200
Speaker 1: The defensive linemen are too good in this league to

266
00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:19,720
Speaker 1: go first and fifteen, second and ten and then they're

267
00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:22,200
Speaker 1: just teeing off like it's third down. You can't play

268
00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:25,080
Speaker 1: that way, and so that's not a recipe for success.

269
00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:26,680
Speaker 1: So he's got to eliminate that, and I think we'll

270
00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:30,320
Speaker 1: be fine. You know, I remember Mahomes third year in

271
00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:32,840
Speaker 1: the League, or maybe it was last year, people said, Okay,

272
00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:35,520
Speaker 1: there's a way to defend him. Don't give him anything

273
00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:38,040
Speaker 1: over the top, make him be patient. And now I'm

274
00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:40,880
Speaker 1: hearing it with Joe Burrow. Joe he wants to go day,

275
00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:43,000
Speaker 1: you know, because you you let it rip, which is

276
00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:46,640
Speaker 1: my kind of quarterback. And I hear this, well you know, um,

277
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:50,600
Speaker 1: you know he's going to have to learn to be patient.

278
00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:54,160
Speaker 1: My takeaway is, well, there's an offensive line thing he's

279
00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:55,920
Speaker 1: kind of working through right now and a lack of

280
00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:59,840
Speaker 1: repetition with this guy's when you hear that, somebody says

281
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:02,920
Speaker 1: there's a way to defend Borough, make him be patient.

282
00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:07,080
Speaker 1: How does that land for you? Well, well, my rookie year,

283
00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:10,119
Speaker 1: it was the exact opposite. We couldn't hit any throws

284
00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:12,280
Speaker 1: down the field, and so teams were challenging aa us

285
00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:13,880
Speaker 1: and it was making throw over the top. And then

286
00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:16,640
Speaker 1: after last year, it was making be patient. And so

287
00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:18,720
Speaker 1: I think we've done a great job of adjusting to

288
00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:21,640
Speaker 1: what defenses are giving us. And this year they're trying

289
00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:23,359
Speaker 1: to take the deep all away from us because we

290
00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:25,240
Speaker 1: had so much success last year and so we got

291
00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:28,480
Speaker 1: to find ways to find explosive plays. Run after the

292
00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:31,480
Speaker 1: catch without you know, getting those big one on one

293
00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:33,320
Speaker 1: opportunities because we're just not going to get as many

294
00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:36,119
Speaker 1: because our receivers are so are so good at what

295
00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:38,920
Speaker 1: they do, and so we're gonna have to innovate ways

296
00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:42,280
Speaker 1: to find those explosive plays. But in the meantime, we're

297
00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:44,240
Speaker 1: just gonna have to take what the defense gives us,

298
00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:47,679
Speaker 1: run the ball well and and find more points. What

299
00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:51,720
Speaker 1: is happening this week at practice? Yesterday was we come

300
00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:54,159
Speaker 1: and watch the film lift make our corrections, and then

301
00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:57,800
Speaker 1: today's the off day where everyone gets a head start

302
00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:00,800
Speaker 1: on on the jets. And so tomorrow our first first

303
00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:03,480
Speaker 1: week of our first day of practice, and so I

304
00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:06,400
Speaker 1: think everyone's excited to get back at it. It's only

305
00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:08,880
Speaker 1: two weeks. Obviously not where we're want to be at

306
00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:12,119
Speaker 1: nowhere near our standard, but we got fifteen weeks of

307
00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:15,160
Speaker 1: football left. A lot a lot of football would be played,

308
00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:19,720
Speaker 1: you know, Joe, I think people forget if you watch

309
00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:22,160
Speaker 1: a movie, in the last fifteen minutes of the movie,

310
00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:24,400
Speaker 1: you're great, that's all you remember. You could you could

311
00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:26,840
Speaker 1: watch an average movie, but if it has a great ending,

312
00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:28,640
Speaker 1: everybody's like, that's one of the best movies I've ever seen.

313
00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:30,960
Speaker 1: Nobody walks out of a laughing out of the theater

314
00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:34,920
Speaker 1: and says it was an average movie. People forget last year,

315
00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:37,400
Speaker 1: go back to I've talked about this on the air.

316
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:41,359
Speaker 1: I'm like, the Bengals had a great ending to the season,

317
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:44,880
Speaker 1: but like week ten, let's go back to week ten.

318
00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:47,000
Speaker 1: You guys were trying to kind of find yourself, if

319
00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:49,720
Speaker 1: I remember, Yeah, that was I think our bye week

320
00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:51,639
Speaker 1: was Week ten, and we had just lost the Jets

321
00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:54,280
Speaker 1: on the road and got blown out by the Browns

322
00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:56,680
Speaker 1: at home, and I think I was on your show

323
00:18:57,000 --> 00:18:59,800
Speaker 1: that week. Unfortunately, I don't think we've got to talk

324
00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:04,600
Speaker 1: after to win yet this week, but that was. Yeah.

325
00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:08,040
Speaker 1: We lost two games in a row several times last year.

326
00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:10,479
Speaker 1: At one point on a six game stretch, we were

327
00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:13,680
Speaker 1: two and four, and so, you know, we just got

328
00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:17,240
Speaker 1: to find ways to be more consistent, and whether that's

329
00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:20,680
Speaker 1: running the ball better, me taking care of the football better,

330
00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:23,840
Speaker 1: getting the ball out faster, finding more completions, we just

331
00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:25,919
Speaker 1: got to figure out, you know, a way to do that.

332
00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:29,840
Speaker 1: Nobody's panicking, you know, we feel the urgency of the

333
00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:32,679
Speaker 1: two losses, but we're just taking it. One week at

334
00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:34,679
Speaker 1: a time. If we got there and take care of

335
00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:36,359
Speaker 1: business this week, where I think we'll be on a roll.

336
00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:39,200
Speaker 1: They always say, you can lose games, you can't lose

337
00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:43,240
Speaker 1: a locker room. You guys are really really young. You

338
00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:46,119
Speaker 1: lose three in a row, I get it. There's a

339
00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:51,000
Speaker 1: feel of desperation. What's the level of intensity this week?

340
00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:55,040
Speaker 1: I mean, because let's be honest, I've said this before,

341
00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:57,800
Speaker 1: the Rams are not playing good football. I just trust

342
00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:00,919
Speaker 1: their people. You guys. Right now, there are teams that

343
00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:03,600
Speaker 1: are Owen two, like Tennessee, and I just don't think

344
00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:06,639
Speaker 1: they have the weapons. I think I just see them struggling.

345
00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:08,120
Speaker 1: I look at you in the Rams, and I think

346
00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:10,000
Speaker 1: they got to get their own lines figured out. The

347
00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:12,879
Speaker 1: quarterbacks didn't play in the preseason. I see moments. I

348
00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:15,199
Speaker 1: saw a first half of the Rams this week. I

349
00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:17,320
Speaker 1: was like, wow, I saw the second half of you guys.

350
00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:19,360
Speaker 1: I went, yeah, they're they're fine. They're just gotta get

351
00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:22,320
Speaker 1: this shit figured out. But but the reality is, Joe,

352
00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:25,440
Speaker 1: you're own two and this league was just brutal statistically

353
00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:31,760
Speaker 1: to Owen three. Do you forecast an incredibly intense week? Yeah,

354
00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:33,399
Speaker 1: we gotta go on and have great week of practice,

355
00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:37,360
Speaker 1: an intense week of preparation that will lead us into

356
00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:42,640
Speaker 1: a victory on Sunday. I don't think it'll be any

357
00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:45,520
Speaker 1: different execution wise in practice, but we might feel that

358
00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:49,399
Speaker 1: urgency a little bit. Were own two not where we

359
00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:52,840
Speaker 1: want to be. But like I said earlier, fifteen games left,

360
00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:55,840
Speaker 1: sixteen weeks left a lot of football to be played.

361
00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:58,520
Speaker 1: I think, you know, the biggest thing for us is

362
00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:05,679
Speaker 1: starting off fast. Week one, pick six, fumble recovery in

363
00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:08,439
Speaker 1: the first quarter, we give them ten points immediately. Now

364
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:10,800
Speaker 1: we're playing from behind. Now we're facing third down defenses,

365
00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:14,200
Speaker 1: prevent defenses, keeping it in front. Same thing last week

366
00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:16,959
Speaker 1: first and fifteen, first and fifteen first and fifteen they

367
00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:20,000
Speaker 1: start out strong, two touchdowns in a row, and now

368
00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:22,439
Speaker 1: we're behind fourteen points, seventeen three and a half. Now

369
00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:26,280
Speaker 1: we're placed playing prevent defense, third down defenses, and so

370
00:21:26,359 --> 00:21:29,760
Speaker 1: we got to start faster so we can stick to

371
00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:31,720
Speaker 1: our game play, run the ball, play action, and take

372
00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:34,080
Speaker 1: our shots when they're there. And you know, more of

373
00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:36,439
Speaker 1: those shots will open up down the field if we

374
00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:41,399
Speaker 1: start faster. We're not playing from behind. Is you know again,

375
00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:43,800
Speaker 1: you're from LSU, so you played with NFL guys when

376
00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:46,720
Speaker 1: you were seventeen eighteen years old. Same with Ohio State.

377
00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:48,879
Speaker 1: I think you I'm not sure if you were on

378
00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:51,760
Speaker 1: the team with Chase Young, but Jamar Chase ye, right,

379
00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:56,120
Speaker 1: So you play Michael Parsons I commented during the game,

380
00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:59,080
Speaker 1: it's like watching John Morant in football, like he has

381
00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:02,560
Speaker 1: like six moves. I'm like, holy God, this isn't like

382
00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:06,480
Speaker 1: anything when you're when you know there's a Hall of

383
00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:09,080
Speaker 1: Fame level when you're watching him, a von Miller or

384
00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:12,160
Speaker 1: a Micah Parsons. I mean it was he a little

385
00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:14,120
Speaker 1: better in person than you thought, is it? I mean,

386
00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:17,400
Speaker 1: take me through like playing somebody and you know well

387
00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:19,919
Speaker 1: that that's arguably the best player on the football field.

388
00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:23,119
Speaker 1: I wouldn't say he was better in person because I

389
00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:25,119
Speaker 1: saw him on film and knew exactly what he was

390
00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:29,959
Speaker 1: going to be. He's unbelievably big, strong and fast player.

391
00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:33,760
Speaker 1: But you know, it's not one one dimensional. There's a

392
00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:36,040
Speaker 1: lot of a lot of good pass rushers in this league,

393
00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:38,080
Speaker 1: but not a lot of guys like him that they

394
00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:42,280
Speaker 1: can move around from three technique to edge rusher to

395
00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:45,960
Speaker 1: off the ball linebacker, blitzing and getting matchups on a

396
00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:48,479
Speaker 1: on a running back, so they can just move him

397
00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:50,359
Speaker 1: around and do do a lot of different things with

398
00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:53,280
Speaker 1: him because he's so versatile. And you know, I'm I'm

399
00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:55,000
Speaker 1: excited to watch him keep playing because he's going to

400
00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:57,399
Speaker 1: keep getting better and better. He's a young guy who's

401
00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:00,600
Speaker 1: already one of the best in the league. And no,

402
00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:02,919
Speaker 1: I'm excited to keep watching him. All right, So you

403
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:05,280
Speaker 1: told us last week that you bruised like a peach.

404
00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:11,119
Speaker 1: You're taking a beating. So you wake up Monday morning,

405
00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:15,560
Speaker 1: what does it feel like at your young age? I

406
00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:19,520
Speaker 1: actually felt great this week. You know, I think diet

407
00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:21,440
Speaker 1: has a lot to do with it. You know, I'm

408
00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:23,680
Speaker 1: back in the when I was at LSU eating Poe

409
00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:26,040
Speaker 1: Boys and gumbo all the time. Maybe the inflammation your

410
00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:28,040
Speaker 1: body's a little a little higher than it is when

411
00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:30,680
Speaker 1: you're eating a little healthier. So in the last two years,

412
00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:33,760
Speaker 1: I really focused on that and got that inflammation out

413
00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:36,119
Speaker 1: of my body post game and that's really helped with

414
00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:39,080
Speaker 1: the soreness after that and allowed me to have better

415
00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:42,360
Speaker 1: RACI practice and maintain my body throughout the year. By

416
00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:45,159
Speaker 1: the way, I didn't know this either, tomatoes cause inflammation.

417
00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:48,880
Speaker 1: Spicy food. I got rid of tomatoes and spicy food.

418
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:51,960
Speaker 1: Not because I get hit, but I had a nutritionist

419
00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:55,400
Speaker 1: and she said I had a little joint soreness because

420
00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:57,040
Speaker 1: I was playing tennis, and she like went there on

421
00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:59,760
Speaker 1: my diet and she's like, God, you just live on tomatoes.

422
00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:03,000
Speaker 1: You're all into spicy food. And I'm like, it's awesome.

423
00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:04,720
Speaker 1: I thought I thought it made I thought it reaved

424
00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:07,040
Speaker 1: your body up. She said, your inflammation issues are going

425
00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:09,560
Speaker 1: to be awful. So is that what you're talking about. Yeah,

426
00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:13,760
Speaker 1: it's all individualized too. So everyone has different ingredients or

427
00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:17,320
Speaker 1: foods that their body reacts to differently. And you can

428
00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:20,720
Speaker 1: take this blood test that they go through hundreds and

429
00:24:20,800 --> 00:24:23,679
Speaker 1: hundreds of different foods, see how your body reacts to it,

430
00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:27,960
Speaker 1: and for every person it's different. Like corn was very

431
00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:30,399
Speaker 1: reactive for me, and so I try to, you know,

432
00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:33,320
Speaker 1: eat as little corn as possible. Corn is in everything

433
00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:35,640
Speaker 1: these days, so it's not can't cut it completely out.

434
00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:38,240
Speaker 1: But there's a lot of little things like that that

435
00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:40,800
Speaker 1: you don't really think about that of health my body.

436
00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:45,760
Speaker 1: This week's gold Metal performance goes to a young star quarterback.

437
00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:49,240
Speaker 1: We all need to start paying more attention too. Has

438
00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:52,960
Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts ascended himself to a star quarterback. Well, the

439
00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:55,720
Speaker 1: Eagles are two and oh best offense in the NFC.

440
00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:58,919
Speaker 1: He's not the biggest guy under center, but in twenty

441
00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:02,959
Speaker 1: twenty two, that doesn't matter. Work ethic a plus leadership

442
00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:07,119
Speaker 1: pedigree that the team craves, beloved by teammates one at

443
00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:11,200
Speaker 1: two programs Collegiately, question is how far can he take

444
00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:14,960

Speaker 1: I like lead to have an opinion on social issues.

459
00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:04,760
Speaker 1: I'm good with it. I don't like I don't think

460
00:26:04,800 --> 00:26:08,480
Speaker 1: Tiger Woods had to have opinions on it. I don't

461
00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:10,120
Speaker 1: think we should force people to say things I don't

462
00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:12,720
Speaker 1: want to say. But if athletes go that way, I'm

463
00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:15,639
Speaker 1: I'm all for it. And you live in a very

464
00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:19,399
Speaker 1: conservative part of the country, Ohio, and you know you

465
00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:21,919
Speaker 1: don't have a problem having an opinion on social issues.

466
00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:26,399
Speaker 1: You're obviously pretty fearless in that space is and you

467
00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:29,400
Speaker 1: you're going to eventually have big advertisers coming in. Just

468
00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:31,640
Speaker 1: how do you reconcile all of it? Like what goes

469
00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:33,480
Speaker 1: through your head when we have a social issue, a

470
00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:37,679
Speaker 1: cultural issue, how to what's going through your head? Well,

471
00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:40,560
Speaker 1: my initial thought for everything is to try to figure

472
00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:45,199
Speaker 1: out my own thoughts on it, because there's not I

473
00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:47,719
Speaker 1: don't think there's one way to look at everything, and

474
00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:50,159
Speaker 1: I have to, you know, take in all the information

475
00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:53,120
Speaker 1: and make my own decision on it. I'm anna young

476
00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:56,800
Speaker 1: guy who's trying to figure out my thoughts on the

477
00:26:56,800 --> 00:27:00,760
Speaker 1: world every now and then. And if somebody asked me

478
00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:02,680
Speaker 1: a question on it, I'm going to answer honestly. I'm

479
00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:06,520
Speaker 1: not gonna try to dodge a question. I try to

480
00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:10,160
Speaker 1: have a great relationship with the media, and so I

481
00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:13,040
Speaker 1: want to answer as many questions as honestly as I can.

482
00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:16,560
Speaker 1: You know, if I feel strongly about something, I'm not

483
00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:20,040
Speaker 1: not afraid to speak my mind on it. But I'm

484
00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:22,800
Speaker 1: also not afraid to say that I don't have an

485
00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:24,600
Speaker 1: opinion on it, that I haven't really studied it, and

486
00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:27,320
Speaker 1: I don't really have all the facts on it. So

487
00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:32,119
Speaker 1: I'm not afraid to go either way. But I think

488
00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:39,560
Speaker 1: these days everything is so polarizing that I think people

489
00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:42,600
Speaker 1: that speak out can kind of bring people together in

490
00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:46,520
Speaker 1: a way. Yeah, it used to be I'm in my fifties.

491
00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:50,760
Speaker 1: When I was in my twenties, you could literally say, boy,

492
00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:54,040
Speaker 1: it's hot, it's been hot this summer, and nobody there

493
00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:58,840
Speaker 1: will be no argument. Now if you say that, it's like, oh,

494
00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:01,040
Speaker 1: you think there's climate change, Oh you're one of these

495
00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:03,360
Speaker 1: global warming yet And it's like, no, I just think

496
00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:06,159
Speaker 1: it's hot. It's it's June. I'm over the summer. I

497
00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:08,240
Speaker 1: was in Turks and Caicos. It's just way too hot

498
00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:11,080
Speaker 1: for me. I can't take July there and it is weird,

499
00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:15,120
Speaker 1: like parts of me wish I was in my twenties,

500
00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:18,840
Speaker 1: like the ability. My son's into tech and I'm like, God,

501
00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:21,240
Speaker 1: he's so much smarter than I am. He's so good

502
00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:23,399
Speaker 1: with this stuff. He could be a hacker if he

503
00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:25,719
Speaker 1: wanted to. I mean, he's got coding. And I'm like,

504
00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:28,399
Speaker 1: I'm so. I was playing Atari at a bowling alley,

505
00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:30,480
Speaker 1: like that's what we had. We didn't have anything. And

506
00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:32,480
Speaker 1: then there's parts of being young and I think, oh

507
00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:35,359
Speaker 1: my god, what would I have done on social media? Jesus,

508
00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:38,440
Speaker 1: I wouldn't even I wouldn't. I would have been in disaster.

509
00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:43,160
Speaker 1: Are there ever times you're like I'm putting down the phone. Yeah,

510
00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:46,200
Speaker 1: I don't have any social media throughout the week. You know,

511
00:28:46,280 --> 00:28:48,520
Speaker 1: I'm really not a lot during the season. If I

512
00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:50,120
Speaker 1: feel like I need a break from it, I deleted

513
00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:51,920
Speaker 1: all from my phone. You know, it could be kind

514
00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:54,440
Speaker 1: of overwhelming when you're in the in the position that

515
00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:58,440
Speaker 1: I'm in. You know, everyone can kind of get a

516
00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:00,240
Speaker 1: little piece of you here and there, and I like

517
00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:02,160
Speaker 1: to I'm a private person that I don't like to

518
00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:04,880
Speaker 1: share very much, so I try to keep my social

519
00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:10,320
Speaker 1: media as professional as I can, whether it's pictures walking

520
00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:13,160
Speaker 1: into games on the field, or try to keep keep

521
00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:17,920
Speaker 1: my family out of it, because there's a lot of

522
00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:21,600
Speaker 1: bad that comes with all that, and there's so much

523
00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:26,720
Speaker 1: spotlight and so little privacy these days that you try

524
00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:30,200
Speaker 1: to grab and take any privacy that you can. And

525
00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:33,800
Speaker 1: so I don't have any social media right now on

526
00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:35,600
Speaker 1: my phone. If I feel like I need to post something,

527
00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:37,920
Speaker 1: I'll go on there and post it deleted again. But

528
00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:40,720
Speaker 1: you know, I don't like to be on there too much.

529
00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:44,080
Speaker 1: I'm the same. I have my staff for a lot

530
00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:51,760
Speaker 1: of mine. My kids different generationally, but family's different. My

531
00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:53,960
Speaker 1: wife's not on it at all. So my daughter sat

532
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:56,920
Speaker 1: next to your parents. Your mom said she was incredibly

533
00:29:56,960 --> 00:30:01,440
Speaker 1: sweet at the Baltimore Ravens game. Yeah, and I always think, God,

534
00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:04,600
Speaker 1: how would my mom have handled all the criticism? I get, right?

535
00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:09,479
Speaker 1: How do your parents deal with it? Especially moms? Yeah,

536
00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:14,480
Speaker 1: that's we haven't really talked about that much. You know. Fortunately,

537
00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:19,480
Speaker 1: for the most part, things that have been said about me,

538
00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:22,840
Speaker 1: I've been in a positive light. Obviously, there's a lot

539
00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:26,680
Speaker 1: of negativity out there, but and then you know, the

540
00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:28,920
Speaker 1: start that we're off too. There's also a lot of negativity,

541
00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:32,680
Speaker 1: so I think that they are starting to feel the

542
00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:34,680
Speaker 1: effects of that. We haven't really talked about it much,

543
00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:37,920
Speaker 1: but I mean it's hard not to. I would imagine

544
00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:41,360
Speaker 1: that they do, but we don't really talk about that much. Yeah,

545
00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:43,640
Speaker 1: my mom came to me before she passed away one

546
00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:45,920
Speaker 1: time and she said, oh my, she had a friend

547
00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:48,320
Speaker 1: who was kind of a gossip but a funny lady

548
00:30:48,360 --> 00:30:50,880
Speaker 1: named Norma. And she said, you know, Norma tells me

549
00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:55,560
Speaker 1: you're very controversial. I'm like, mom, controversial. I'm like, I

550
00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:59,960
Speaker 1: have opinions, I'm not controversial. I said, if you're brutally honest,

551
00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:03,920
Speaker 1: you know, it ticks people off. So my mom was, oh,

552
00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:07,640
Speaker 1: this is terrible. I'm like, Mom, get off Google. It's

553
00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:11,760
Speaker 1: not built for seventy two year olds. Like, get off Google, Joe.

554
00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:14,040
Speaker 1: It was so brutal. I wonder if you'll get to

555
00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:18,400
Speaker 1: a point where, really, Mom, just get off it. Stop it. Yeah.

556
00:31:18,440 --> 00:31:20,200
Speaker 1: I definitely have had to tell my dad that a

557
00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:25,280
Speaker 1: couple of times, just especially early on it, mainly at

558
00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:27,840
Speaker 1: LSU and everything was starting to ramp up a little bit.

559
00:31:27,920 --> 00:31:29,960
Speaker 1: He's like, oh, did you see this article? This article?

560
00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:31,280
Speaker 1: I was like, no, Dad, I don't really like to

561
00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:32,920
Speaker 1: look at that stuff. He's like, Okay, I get it.

562
00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:35,520
Speaker 1: I get it, and so he kind of you know,

563
00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:38,080
Speaker 1: they get it, and you know, we've been this has

564
00:31:38,120 --> 00:31:41,800
Speaker 1: been three years now in the spotlight, and so all

565
00:31:41,800 --> 00:31:44,800
Speaker 1: my friends and family understand the position that I'm in

566
00:31:44,840 --> 00:31:47,880
Speaker 1: and now that they are in as well, and they

567
00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:51,320
Speaker 1: are adjusted tunis just as well as I am. Or

568
00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:53,520
Speaker 1: do you still have high school for college buddies, like,

569
00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:57,200
Speaker 1: like like non football buddies, like still hang with them? Oh? Yeah,

570
00:31:57,240 --> 00:32:00,680
Speaker 1: my uh, I mean those are really the my best

571
00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:02,960
Speaker 1: friends that I continue to hang out with these days.

572
00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:08,280
Speaker 1: Obviously you make new friends through football, but you know,

573
00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:11,200
Speaker 1: it's just kind of hard to to make new friends

574
00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:14,000
Speaker 1: in the position that I'm in that right, don't really

575
00:32:14,240 --> 00:32:17,880
Speaker 1: understand what this life is about. And so you know,

576
00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:21,080
Speaker 1: my friends from high school and college they washed me

577
00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:25,280
Speaker 1: grow up and know me from before I was the

578
00:32:25,320 --> 00:32:28,600
Speaker 1: person that I am now in everybody else's eyes, and

579
00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:30,440
Speaker 1: I'm still the same person to them, and so it's

580
00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:33,960
Speaker 1: so easy to go back to Athens, Ohio and hanging

581
00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:36,440
Speaker 1: out hang out with all all the friends that I

582
00:32:36,520 --> 00:32:40,080
Speaker 1: hung out with when I was twelve thirteen, fourteen fifteen,

583
00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:43,360
Speaker 1: just because you know, they understand it, they get it,

584
00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:46,880
Speaker 1: they know who I am truly deep down, and you

585
00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:49,360
Speaker 1: know that's what I love about those guys. Yeah, I

586
00:32:49,360 --> 00:32:52,920
Speaker 1: always I say, my my, it's like a parking garage.

587
00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:55,560
Speaker 1: I just don't have any openings. There's no openings in

588
00:32:55,600 --> 00:32:59,240
Speaker 1: my parking garage. All the spaces are full. Most of

589
00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:01,280
Speaker 1: my friends all get that. I have one high school

590
00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:03,800
Speaker 1: friend to college and then you know, buddies through my career.

591
00:33:04,960 --> 00:33:07,520
Speaker 1: The only thing that's hard to describe to people for

592
00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:10,640
Speaker 1: me as a public figure is my time. Everything has

593
00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:13,280
Speaker 1: to be like mice calendar. Every day is like eight things.

594
00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:17,840
Speaker 1: Yours has to be double that, right. Yeah. The main

595
00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:21,600
Speaker 1: thing is like if I'm trying to hang out with

596
00:33:21,640 --> 00:33:23,600
Speaker 1: a friend that I haven't seen for a while, it's like, hey,

597
00:33:23,640 --> 00:33:26,320
Speaker 1: do you want to go get some dinner? And it's like, yeah,

598
00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:28,560
Speaker 1: I would love to, but you know where are we

599
00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:30,720
Speaker 1: going to go? We gotta get this private table where

600
00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:33,000
Speaker 1: we're I don't want to get bothered. I would like

601
00:33:33,080 --> 00:33:35,600
Speaker 1: to sit down and actually have an interaction and conversation

602
00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:38,920
Speaker 1: with you without having to okater to these other people.

603
00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:42,240
Speaker 1: So usually we just end up getting take out and

604
00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:44,520
Speaker 1: eating my house and watching the movie or something, and

605
00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:47,320
Speaker 1: so that's kind of what my world has turned into.

606
00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:52,400
Speaker 1: Totally Cincinnati. I mean, I would think people in Cincinnati

607
00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:56,640
Speaker 1: are mostly respectful of your space, like the Midwestern ethos,

608
00:33:56,800 --> 00:33:59,880
Speaker 1: be a gentleman, be a good person. It's that's what

609
00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:02,520
Speaker 1: it feels like to me. I don't know. Cincinnati. Yeah,

610
00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:04,800
Speaker 1: for the most part, people in Ohio, if I would

611
00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:07,520
Speaker 1: decide to go out, they'll wait to come and ask

612
00:34:07,520 --> 00:34:09,279
Speaker 1: for a picture until I dunnet. And if I'm with

613
00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:15,080
Speaker 1: my friends or my family, usually people in Ohio are

614
00:34:15,280 --> 00:34:19,680
Speaker 1: extremely respectful in that regard. When you go outside of

615
00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:21,920
Speaker 1: Ohio is kind of when it gets a little crazy

616
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:26,759
Speaker 1: because I guess I don't I guess, I don't know.

617
00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:31,160
Speaker 1: Maybe people just in Ohio feel they know it's my home,

618
00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:33,400
Speaker 1: they know I'm from here, they understand that we have

619
00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:37,280
Speaker 1: shared values and the dinner table is a shared value.

620
00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:40,520
Speaker 1: And then when you go somewhere else, maybe it's just different.

621
00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:42,600
Speaker 1: I don't know, it's interesting. No, you know what I

622
00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:45,840
Speaker 1: think it is. They protect you in Cincinnati. They feel

623
00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:49,200
Speaker 1: like you're you're a big part of their community and

624
00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:52,719
Speaker 1: they're protecting you. So they the last thing they ever

625
00:34:52,840 --> 00:34:55,560
Speaker 1: want is for you to feel like this is a

626
00:34:55,640 --> 00:34:58,839
Speaker 1: small town. I'm Joe Burrow. I think there's a lot

627
00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:01,720
Speaker 1: of that where people they're protecting you. It's the ultimate

628
00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:05,319
Speaker 1: sign of respect is don't bother our guy. That that's

629
00:35:05,400 --> 00:35:07,759
Speaker 1: my bress on what it is. You're probably right, And

630
00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:10,120
