00:00Russell Wilson, now in Pittsburgh, Joe, here he is and what does Russ always bring to every

00:11locker room?

00:12Positivity, Joe.

00:13Here we go.

00:14I think that when you treat every day as day one and you realize that every day you just

00:18try to have a learning, you know, experience, you embrace the moment, you look forward to

00:23the challenges, you look forward to the newness of it all, you have that mentality, you embrace

00:29every day.

00:30You've got to treat every practice, every game, every warm-up, every day as if you're

00:33getting prepared for the Super Bowl and Super Bowl week and so, you know, that's just kind

00:37of the mentality you've got to have, you know, and so I think that even though it's OTAs,

00:41you know, that's the mentality I think, you know, our team has.

00:45You know, there it is, Joe, got to have that mentality, got to have that mentality.

00:50He's a motivational speaker that should be talking at 2.30 in the morning on an infomercial

00:55because he's completely spewing absolute garbage.

00:59He is a snake oil salesman that doesn't speak one truth, okay?

01:05You could see right through Russell Wilson.

01:07He's a fraud in terms of winning over the locker room.

01:10His teammates hated him in Seattle.

01:12His teammates hated him in Denver and they're going to hate him in Pittsburgh.

01:16I'm telling you, the real quarterback of that team is Justin Fields and until the Steelers

01:21recognize that and Mike Tomlin, they're going to go absolutely nowhere.

01:26I'm sitting on the plus 475 that the real quarterback starts week one, hopefully.

01:32Well, look, I know that you're on that and I don't disagree with you that at some point

01:39Justin Fields will become the quarterback of the Pittsburgh Steelers.

01:44I don't know if week one is going to be that.

01:46It would probably take an injury for that to happen, but I agree with you that eventually

01:50down the line that will be the case.
