The difference between a good student and a great one is that a good student is concerned more about the outcome while a great one is fascinated by the process of learning.

Listen to both Von Miller and Josh Allen. That's team-first leadership. Von felt a sense of belonging when Josh reached out, Josh was focused on making the overall team better. That's what we strive for in our line of work. @VonMiller @JoshAllenQB @BuffaloBills #BillsMafia
