Season-defining quote by Burrow. Instilling a championship mentality, no complacency. Should be a new locker-room mantra.

And words to live by in everyday life, not just sports. I bet Burrow doesn't believe in participation trophies.

Sounds like corporate speak on Leadership. Yet I really like it allied to this football team too!

Similar to my all time favorite Saban quote “To be great one has to first “get over” being good”!!! Joe has that same mentality.

be careful, Joe, some Ranters will start screaming "but we're 6-0, what's there to complain about?" and come after you for not being satisfied.

Of course, championship teams/players/coached should NEVER be satisfied. There's always room to improve.

If he doesn't get into coaching after his NFL career like his dad, Burrow could make the book and speaking circuit on leadership.

Not a classic but I liked this quote, too: when asked post game about the atmosphere of T.S, he answered " I am still speechless".

Great find. There are definitely some things about Burrow that remind me of Tom Brady.
