He is such a genuine guy. Totally agree with what he said about things not needing to be "manufactured", and how he is just comfortable being himself. So rare these days. I can't think of any other NFL QB that would wear a Santa Clause hat and a Sponge Bob sweatshirt to a press conference. And he did it not like he was playing a joke, or a dare, but just Joe being Joe.
His dedication to his mechanics, his body, and his overall desire for continuous improvement is admirable as well.
He LOOKS like a different guy than he did when he arrived and it is so exciting to think of what year 3 can look like for him and the Bengals.

Bur that being said it really is nice to have a guy like Joe as the face of the franchise. Mature. Articulate. Not too serious but not a clown. More than just a cliché generator.

Well said all of you guys. I am proud to have him as our QB and the face of the franchise. Great days ahead for us all
with Joe Burrow at the helm. The way he does things that just work for him and also liked the part about not giving away
the secret to playing in the rain with how he grips the ball. Being comfortable with himself as a person really just oozes
out to the entire organization, the team, the coaches and the fans.
