"I think it's my mental capacity in the game," Burrow said last week at the 2020 NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis. "I prepare better than anybody else. My physical traits are limited compared to some of the guys here. Everyone can see it."

"I have to be smarter. I have to prepare better and I have to know what's happening before it happens so I can play fast."

He witnessed a lot of hard-working people growing up in Southern Ohio, mostly getting jack-squat for their effort.

He threw 63 TD passes with only 2 INT's during his senior year in high school, so his later success certainly wasn't a big surprise to me. Parade All-American too, for scholastic achievements.
