When you're on the field prior to a play and the quarterback's at the line of scrimmage, what are you looking for? What are you doing?
Everything that I probably studied from that week. There's so much that goes through my head before every play. You know, from the formation, from the stance of this, from the look of the quarterback, from the. If it's a dummy point that he's doing. From. If the receiver's on the hash, off the hash, if he's outside the numbers on the numbers, you know, if the running back is keeping his head straight, if the running back is at home, offset so much.
And how did you know that?
Easy film study. Hour after hour after hour after hour. Just having the computer in front of me and saying, I'm not moving until I get it. And if I gotta watch these games time and time and time again, I'm not moving until I get it up until the time I gotta walk out that locker room, I'm studying my opponent, and they're like, man, you done watched this a hundred times. Okay, it's one more thing I didn't see. My formula has been simply work. I don't know nothing else outside grammar. I'm telling you, work.
No matter what it is, no matter if it's on the football field, no matter if it's building businesses, no matter if it's building relationships, no matter if it's going through downfalls and finding your way back up, you got to work your way out of it.
