HEAD COACH TODD BOWLES
(On T Tristan Wirfs being the first player in NFL history to be named First-Team All-Pro at both left tackle and right tackle)
"That's outstanding. It says a lot about him – his work ethic, his character, his pride, the way he goes about things…He does it the right way. He plays hard. He did a heck of a job at right tackle [and] I know he was skeptical at left tackle, but he dove in with both feet and he got great at it, too."
(On the status of S Antoine Winfield Jr., CB Jamel Dean and TE Cade Otton)
"Antoine and Jamel are fine. Cade is trending the right way – we'll see how he recovers."
(On if any players are ruled out for Sunday)
"Troy Hill would be the only one."
(On Hill not being ready to return from Injured Reserve)
"Not yet."
(On if this is the healthiest the team has been since Week 1)
"Probably. I mean, we've been so banged up…I don't know what healthy is right now."
(On the key to winning in the playoffs)
"I believe getting there is one thing. I think you've got to take care of the football, I think you've got to be able to run it, and I think you've got to stop the run. I think you've got to limit the mistakes and the penalties. Those things all come down to it at the end. If you can do those things, you have a chance of winning the football game."
(On what makes QB Baker Mayfield so dangerous against the blitz)
"He's mobile in the pocket and he can see things. He's very quick with his thought process – hopefully that continues this game. They have a variety of blitzes they're going to bring for him, we understand that as well. He's sharp. He's seen them all at this point in his career, so he understands where he needs to go and he'll get us in the right play."
