I think it's amazing when I see kids

that come from lineage like a time, like a Clay Matthews senior, like a Bruce Matthews son, Peyton Manning, when your father has something and you still have a burning desire to get it for yourself.

That's very impressive to me.

Coming from our situations, Ocho, it's easy to be motivated.

Oh yeah, yeah.

Being hungry, being hot, being cold.

It's easy being rained on.

It's easy to develop motivation.

But what happens when you have none of those extenuating circumstances?

Of course.

I think the thing is, Ocho, the biggest thing is, are you living in your parents' shadow or are you embracing it?

That's a good one.

You know why?

Nothing I would ever force you to do.

But you know why?

Because playing football was your dream.

You don't know if that's their dream.

See, a lot of times when people force their kid to do something, they're living vicariously through the child.

Now, I'm not saying in all situations because I think everybody wants their child to be successful at his or her chosen path.

Right.
