Defensive End Mario Williams

(On New England getting the ball out quickly last week and if it’ll be different this week with Cleveland) – “Every game is going to be different, for sure. I think the biggest thing is, we’ve just got to take care of our responsibilities, play sound football and get off (the field) on third down.”

(On going against a quarterback that has never started an NFL game) – “We look at it like going against anybody. Each and every one of us, individually, we’re in the NFL for a reason. You don’t go in and take situations lightly or overlook things. You go out and execute your game plan. The biggest thing with that is taking care of our responsibilities and not worrying about other stuff. If we do what we need to do right, we’ll be fine.”

(On the biggest challenges of going against a running back like Browns RB Isaiah Crowell) – “Obviously, he’s a heck of an athlete. It’s just one of the things that we’ve got to do, and it all just goes back to the same situation of taking care of our responsibilities – tackling, (being) fundamentally sound, not letting things spread out further, no yards after catches, runs, whatever. Just stop it right there and then get off the field on third down.”

(On the challenges he faced last week not practicing and then going into a game situation) – “It was difficult. I didn’t realize it until being out there; but definitely not doing anything for a week, having to go through the protocol for the safety of myself or anybody in this situation. Having been in the protocol, I mean you can’t do anything. You know, wind and actual physical activities (were) gone for a week, pretty much. So it was kind of a shock; but getting back into things and physically. you’re running around and everything like that. So it’s getting better. I’m good.”
