Burrow has never shown an ounce of laid back contributor mentality and has always been an in your face go getter. You can even look back at his high school career. He plays the game very physically and has always played that way taking hits with no problem. Much of his mentality could be from being raised by a coach. I don't think he will be hesitant and I think he looks forward to getting back to hitting. Just my opinion but that is the style he has projected to me through his career playing here in Ohio.

Your opinion is that a guy who was a starting QB in the NFL for 14 years and came back from two ACL injuries and had great seasons where he didn't miss a game is "the polar opposite of Burrow?"  I don't quite see that, nor can I grasp why people want Burrow to be so unlike Carson Palmer.

I'm all in on Burrow, but if the guy doesn't run out on the field in week one and gleefully get his knees taken out from under him I'm not going to declare him a loser wimp.

I honestly wonder if some of you ever watched Palmer play.  Because the alternative is that he hurt your feeling so much that it's distorted reality for you.

Palmer is a laid back loser like everybody from CA from Tom Brady to Aaron Rodgers...they just love to sit on their asses and lose.   Thankfully, Burrow is a hard working fearless winner from OH just like Brady Quinn.
