You have to show them what to do in this league because they're so young. They don't understand how to pick up a blitz. It's just a difficult thing.

Obviously as I'm getting older, I'm seeing changes in my body that I may not like... but I do love food, and I'm from the South. I'm not gonna lie, I eat fried chicken, I love macaroni and cheese, and I love grits.
