Joe Burrow knows that playing quarterback is extremely fun but he found an even deeper appreciation for his position while comparing notes with Cincinnati Bengals offensive lineman Alex Cappa in an exchange featured on Hard Knocks.

Burrow, dressed in street clothes, asked the probing question of whether trench warfare is enjoyable during a Bengals practice and got an honest answer.

"Not really," Cappas laughed. "There are good elements in terms of like you're doing something bigger than yourself, your work isn't always celebrated. You have to celebrate it kind of stuff, but like I feel like it's the most anxiety-filled position. It's chronic."

Burrow correctly observed that offensive linemen are rarely praised when they do something good and absolutely torched when they do something bad. Then he went back to doing the super fun job of quarterback — where one can actually win the MVP award, get a bunch of endorsement deals and become the face of a franchise.

Must be nice.
