HE'S THREE TIME FIRST TEAM

ALL BIG FAN PLAYER AND TWO TIME

FIRST TEAM FAN PLAYER.

HERE IN "THE RICH EISEN SHOW" IN

PERSON TAYLOR LEWAN.

THANK YOU FOR COMING.

>> GREAT TO BE HERE.

>> LAST TIME I SEEN YOU YOU WERE

PART OF THE PAPARAZZI.

>> WHAT DID YOU THINK.

>> IT IS BETTER THAN RUNNING.

SITTING IN A SUIT AND TIE.

BUT I DIDN'T GET THE HANG OF IT.

YOU WERE TALKING AND I WAS MICED

UP AND I WAS SO TIRED AND YOU

SAID DON'T WORRY WE'LL GET YOU

HOME.

>> YOU HEAR EVERYTHING.

YOU'RE ALWAYS LIVE WHEN YOU'RE

WEARING THAT THING.

>> NOW I KNOW.

IT'S CAUGHT ME A COUPLE TIMES.

>> THE SAFE WORD IS ALWAYS BACK

TO YOU RICH.

WHENEVER IN TROUBLE, BACK TO YOU

RICH.

>> BACK TO YOU RICH.

>> THANK YOU SO MUCH CHRIS LAW.

I'M HERE WITH TAYLOR LEWAN IN

STUDIO.

WHERE IS MARCUS MARIOTA.

>> I WOULD ASSUME HE'S IN

HAWAII.

>> IS HE SURFING?

>> I DON'T REALLY KNOW.

I HAVEN'T BEEN ON HIS FACEBOOK.

NOT SURE WHAT HE'S DOING.

>> HOW DOES HE LOOK?

>> HE'S GOOD.

HE'S HEALTHY.

HE'S FAST.

HE CAN THROW.

HE CAN DO A LOT OF THINGS.

I'M REALLY EXCITED FOR THE

SEASON.

>> WHAT'S THE THING ABOUT MARCUS

MARIOTA, ONE HE'S RELY QUIET.

DOESN'T SAY MUCH.

IS THAT AN ISSUE?

>> NO I DON'T THINK SO.

THE FIRST COUPLE DAYS WE WERE IN

OTAs, WE WERE PLAYING CARDS, NOT

FOR MONEY.

>> IT'S ALL FOR PRIDE.

>> YOU KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING

ABOUT.

>> I KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TALKING

ABOUT.

>> HE SAID WHAT ARE YOU GUYS

PLAYING, I'M LIKE SEVEN, HE SAID

CAN I LEARN, CAN I PLAY.

SO SINCE DAY ONE HE'S THE GUY

ENGAGING.

NOT LIKE A SNAIL.

HE'S BEEN A GREAT GUY.

ALWAYS HAPPY.

SMILING.

POSITIVE.

I HAVE NO QUARRELS THERE.

>> YOU DIDN'T FINISH THE STORY,

DID YOU LET HIM PLAY.

>> OH, YEAH, HE PLAYED.

TECHNICALLY I'M STILL A ROOKIE.

>> IS THAT RIGHT?

>> YEAH, THIRD GAME OF THE

REGULAR SEASON.

>> HUH.

>> SOMETHING NEW.

>> I DO REMEMBER WISEHUNT YOUR

COACH WAS AT THE COMBINE, PULLED

YOU OFF THE SET AND TOOK A

PHOTOGRAPH HOLDING UP THE 6.

>> 6 WAS AS MANY GAMES I STARTED

LAST YEAR.

I PLAYED IN ELEVEN, THAT SOUNDED

A LOT BETTER.

BUT I STARTED SIX.

I THOUGHT I PLAYED PRETTY

DECENT.

FOR HIM NOTHING IS GOOD ENOUGH.

YOU KNOW.

HE'S THAT GIRLFRIEND THAT'S BEEN

DATING COUPLE YEARS BUT JUST NOT

HAVING IT.

>> BE CARE.

>> I WANT TO MAKE SURE WE'RE

OKAY.

NOT GIVING YOU ANY DIRTY LAUNDY.

>> BECAUSE THAT THING IS ON.

THEY'RE ALWAYS LISTENING.

>> I KNOW.

>> HE WAS HOLDING UP NUMBER SIX

LIKE WHAT ARE YOU DOING ON TV

WHEN YOU ONLY STARTED SIX GAMES.

>> EXACTLY.

I DON'T KNOW WHY.

NFL NETWORK CALLED.

I'M SORRY I COULDN'T DO MIKE

TROUT.

SOUNDED LIKE HE WAS HALF ASLEEP.

SORRY ABOUT THAT.

HE'S A GREAT BASEBALL PLAYER.

>> THE OTHER THING ABOUT MARCUS

MARIOTA IS THE FACT HE DIDN'T

CALL PLAYS, RIGHT, HE DID THE

WHOLE STAND BACK AND SHOTGUN,

LOOK OVER AT THE SIDE LINE, THEY

HOLD UP A PICTURE FOR THE PLAY

AND HE KNOWS WHAT IT MEANS, AND

THINK CALL IT.

YOU DON'T DO THAT IN THE NFL.

WHAT ARE YOU SEEING FROM

MARIOTA?

>> WE DON'T HAVE A LOT OF

COACHES.

WE HAVE OUR TWO-MINUTE OFFENSE

WHERE WE HAVE NUMBERS AND WORDS

WE CAN ASSOCIATE WITH PLAY.

BUT OBVIOUSLY THERE'S GROWING

PAINS.

HE WOULD COME IN AND IT WOULD BE

HALF RIGHT WHEN IT WAS HALF

LEFT, DIFFERENT THINGS.

HE'S SO COMPOSED.

HE'S NOT TOO RUSHED TO GET THE

PLAYOFFS.

HE'S GOING TO TAKE HIS TIME.

WE HAVE ENOUGH TIME TO SAY WHAT

THE PLAY IS, GET THERE.

HE'S BEEN VERY, HE SEEMS VERY

CONFIDENT.

>> I'M NOT GOING TO PUT YOU IN A

POSITION.

>> I WOULD LOVE IF YOU DID.

>> I'M GOING TO PUT YOU IN A

POSITION.

CAN HE START WEEK ONE.

>> IF HE DOES ALL THE RIGHT

THINGS HE CAN.

IF HE DOES ALL THE RIGHT THINGS

IN CAMP, NO REASON HE SHOULDN'T.

>> TAYLOR LEWAN OF THE TENNESSEE

TITANS JOINING ME ON "THE RICH

EISEN SHOW."

HAVE YOU TOLD METTENBERGER TO

KEEP J.J. WATT'S NAME OUT OF HIS

MOUTH?

>> I DO NOT EVEN KNOW WHAT HE

SAID.

HONESTLY.

I WAS IN THE BUILDING, SOMEONE

SAID YOU HEAR WHAT ZACH SAID,

I'M LIKE NO.

I JUST WALKED AWAY AND DID MY

WORKOUT.

>> SO YOU STILL HAVEN'T HEARD.

>> NO.

>> SO AS YOU KNOW HE TOOK A

SELFIE THE DAY HE STARTED.

>> I WAS RIGHT THERE NEXT TO

HIM.

>> YOU WERE?

>> YES.

GORGEOUS.

>> SO THE FAMED METTENBERGER

SELFIE.

YOU WERE JUST OUT OF FRAME.

>> JUST RIGHT THERE.

I WAS DIRECTING THE WHOLE THING.

>> DID YOU SAY TO HIM WHAT ARE

YOU THINKING.

>> NO.

I THINK YOU CAN EXPRESS

YOURSELF.

YOU THINK YOU'RE THE GUY, THE

BEST DN, I MEAN, THE STATS,

YOU'RE ABOUT TO GO AGAINST THE

BEST NFL TEAM, YOU'RE WILLING TO

DO THAT, BETTER THROW THE BALL

WELL.

>> WE'RE SHOWING THE PHOTOGRAPH

RIGHT HERE.

GORGEOUS IS THE WORLD YOU USED.

OTHER ADJECTIVES COME TO MIND.

YOU'RE DIRECTLY OUT OF FRAME.

>> I'M RIGHT AROUND THAT AREA,

YEAH.

>> SO THEN HE WAS ASKED ABOUT

IT.

J.J. WATT TOOK ISSUE TO IT,

MENTIONED IT IN POSTGAME AFTER

HE SORT OF BLEW METTENBERGER UP.

HIS POINT WAS I WAS JUST

EXPRESSING MYSELF.

J.J. WATT GAVE OUT LETTER AND

JACKETS YEARS AGO AND CALLED IT

HIGH-SCHOOLISH.

SAYING J.J. WATT DID SOMETHING

HIGH-SCHOOLISH.

>> DID YOU WEAR A LETTERMAN

JACKET IN HIGH SCHOOL?

HONESTLY, J.J. WATT CAN DO

WHATEVER HE WANTS.

HE HAD 20 SACKS A SEASON.

NO ONE CAN SIT HERE AND SAY

YOU'RE WRONG.

HIS INSTAGRAM IS FULL OF HIM

LIFTING BIG WEIGHTS AND JUMPING

ON BOXES.

THAT'S PHENOMENAL.

I'M NOT IN A POSITION TO SAY

ANYTHING DISRESPECTFUL TO HIM.

WOULD LOVE TO BUT YOU GOT IT

RESPECT THE GAME.

>> I HAVE NO IDEA WHY I'M

SITTING HERE IF NOT TO DO IT FOR

THE CLICKS.

BECAUSE YOU'RE THE GUY WILL HAVE

TO DEAL WITH J.J. WATT ACROSS

THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE.

>> ABSOLUTELY.

MY JOB IS TO HAVE HIM FOCUSED ON

ME.

IF I CAN GET HIM MAD ENOUGH TO

HIT ME INSTEAD OF THE

QUARTERBACK I'VE DONE MY JOB.

IF I PREPARE AND DO THE THINGS

I'M SUPPOSED TO DO THEN I WILL

BE SUCCESSFUL.

>> I'M HERE WITH TAYLOR LEWAN OF

THE TENNESSEE TITANS.

LET'S TALK ABOUT THE CRAZY

COACH.

DO YOU KNOW WHERE THE WORLD JIM

HARBAUGH IS.

>> I HAVE NO IDEA.

>> HE JUST TWEETED IT OUT.

LET'S PUT IT UP.

HE'S IN FRANCE.

>> GOOD FOR HIM.

>> HE'S TAKING PICTURES THERE.

THERE HE IS IN FRONT OF A

McDONALD'S SAYING LE BIG MAC AND

ROYAL WITH CHEESE.

HERE HE IS GOING "PULP FICTION"

I LOVE THIS MAN EVEN MORE.

>> I DIDN'T GET TO MEET HIM.

SAW A BUNCH OF THE OTHER

COACHES.

YOU AND I TALKED ABOUT THIS.

HE WAS KIND OF CRAZY IN

MICHIGAN, RUNNING AROUND, SHIRT

OFF, OBVIOUSLY HAS BEEN WORKING

OUT SINCE '42.

IT'S OKAY.

HE'S GOING TO GET THE PLAYS HE

NEEDS THERE.

HE'S SUCCESSFUL WHERE EVER HE

GOES.

PE ARE LOOKING AT THIS RECENT

SUGAR BOWL MY SOPHOMORE YEAR AND

THAT'S AS GOOD AS IT GOT.

>> WHAT DID HAPPEN?

CAN YOU PUT YOUR FINGER ON WHAT

HAPPENED.

>> IT'S HARD.

YOU GOT TO GET GUYS TO BUY IN.

YOU GOT 105 GUYS WALK ON.

ONE-STAR GUYS, SOME GUYS THERE

FOR SCHOOL, SOME GUYS ARE MEAT

HEADS AND JUST WENT TO GET A

GOOD LIFT ON, OTHER GUYS REALLY

WANT TO PLAY FOOTBALL.

IT'S HARD TO GET 53 GUYS ON A

NFL TEAM TO GO IN THE RIGHT

DIRECTION, LET ALONE 105.

SO I THINK THAT KIND OF CRAZY

WILL ATTRACT THOSE KINDS OF

PLAYERS THAT ARE A LITTLE CRAZY

THEMSELVES.

I WOULD LOVE TO PLAY FOR JIM

HARBAUGH.

>> YEAH, BECAUSE OHIO STATE HAS

THEIR OWN CRAZY.

>> YEAH DON'T GET ME STARTED ON

THAT GUY.

>> WHY?

>> I JUST DON'T KNOW.

HE JUST RETIRES FROM FLORIDA TO

BE WITH HIS FAMILY.

NOW IN OHIO.

>> KEEP GOING.

I LIKE THE DIRECTION.

>> I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND IT.

I RESPECT THE GUY.

HE WON A NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP.

>> OF COURSE.

>> HELPED THE BIG TEN.

>> RIGHT.

>> THAT'S HUGE.

>> IT DRIVES ME CRAZY, ALL OHIO

STATE FANS, WE'RE ON IN

COLUMBUS.

>> I'M A FAN FAVORITE THERE.

>> I KNOW YOU ARE.

THEY LOVE YOU THERE.

>> YEAH.

>> SO ALL OHIO STATE FANS WHEN I

BRING UP JIM HARBAUGH SAY, LOVE

JIM HARBAUGH, HE'S GOING TO BE

GREAT FOR YOU AND IT'S GOING TO

BE GREAT FOR THE RIVALRY AGAIN.

IT'S GOING TO BE GREAT FOR THE

RIVALRY AGAIN BECAUSE NOW YOU'RE

GOING TO MAKE IT A RIVALRY AGAIN

AS IF THE NAME JON COOPER NEVER

EXISTED IN THE WORLD OF OHIO

STATE.

IT'S CYCLICAL.

>> I THINK THEY'RE COMING AT US

A LITTLE HOT, YOU KNOW.

OH, THAT'S GOOD, YOU GOT A COACH

NOW, WE'RE HAPPY, SITTING BACK

WITH THE COFFEE, YOU KNOW WHAT,

CHEER UP PETER PAN.

I LOVE IT.

WYTS.

>> YES, HELLO TO "THE RICH EISEN

SHOW" IN COLUMBUS.

I'VE CALLED THEM OUT A FEW

TIMES.

THEY HAVEN'T CALLED US BACK.

>> MICHIGAN AND OHIO STATE, LEAD

US OVER THERE.

JUST COME OUT AND TAKE IT.

>> COULD YOU BEAT THEM NO MATTER

HOW LOW IT GOT.

>> NO.

[ OVERLAPPING SPEAKERS ]

NRZ.

>> I GOT KNOCKED OUT OF THAT

GAME.

HURT MY HEAD.

>> OH, GOSH.

LET'S HIT HIM WITH THE POLL

QUESTION.

KINDERGARTEN, 5, TO LIKE 12.

I WAS AWFUL.

COULDN'T HIT A BASEBALL.

I THREW A NO-HITTER ONCE.

HIT THREE GUYS, WALKED FOUR,

THIS RIGHT HERE, GOING PRETTY

FAST.

I HAVE A PLAQUE THAT SAYS

FASTEST KID IN ARIZONA.

THAT'S A WIN, BUDDY.

>> WEREN'T YOU THE BIGGEST GUY

OUT THERE.

>> I WASN'T THE BIGGEST GUY, I

WAS ALWAYS TALL.

EVERYONE HAS THAT AWKWARD

CHANGING PHASE.

I STILL CAN'T GROW A BEARD YET.

GOING FROM 10 YEARS OLD TO 14

THAT AWKWARD MIDDLE SCHOOL

STAGE, I HAD REALLY SKINNY ARMS

AND LEGS AND THAT HUMP BELLY.

I WAS LIKE MIKE†--

HONESTLY.

NOT GETTING THE GIRLS LOOKING

LIKE THAT.

BUT I COULD RUN.

I WAS FAST BACK THEN.

OTHERWISE THERE'S NOWHERE TO GO.

"THAT'S LIFE" IS MY GO TO.

LAW HAS SEEN THIS.

>> OH, YEAH.

>> I SING "MY WAY" AND YOU HAVE
