T Terron Armstead

(It seems like the locker room is really loose. How important is that going into a playoff game? You’re one of the few that has a ton of playoff experience.) – “Yeah, I’ve never seen any situation where stress helps. Stay loose, get prepared, work on our craft, our preparation and get ready to go out and execute Saturday night.”

(Cold weather, that’s kind of the big factor. What are the keys to staying warm and being able to execute what you need to at a high level?) – “Yeah, I mean when we’re out there running around and all that good stuff, the temperature doesn’t matter. As far as weather, when you get into wind or rain and all that good stuff, then it can affect the game, the passing game, the kicking game. But temperature, you just have to deal with it.”

(You’re going against the Super Bowl champs. What does it mean to try and steal the belt or crown so to speak?) – “Yeah, this is the way to go. It’s the way to go. Got to go through KC to get our dreams, our goals, our aspirations. There’s no better way than that. Knock off the defending champs and keep rolling from here.”

(Last time you guys played them it was your first game back, and you guys didn’t have OL Rob Hunt out there. How much better do you think the offensive line will be now that you have Rob and you’re a little bit more…) – “Yeah, I mean our goals and objectives don’t change. Protect the quarterback and create lanes for the runner. That’s what we’re going to do to the best of our ability. As a unit, we’re playing pretty well. We got a lot of chemistry and cohesiveness going on. We’re flying off the ball. So that’s non-negotiable. We’re going to do that Saturday night as well. So it’ll be fun. It’ll be a fun battle up front. They have a really good defensive line and defense in total. It’ll be a very big challenge, but we’ll have fun out there.”

(What do you notice when WR Jaylen Waddle and WR Tyreek Hill are on the field together being without Jaylen for the last couple weeks?) – “Yeah, it just opens up more options in our offense. It’s more of a defense has to pick their poison a bit more. They can’t just focus on 10 (Tyreek Hill) as much. It opens up more lanes in the run game at times if you take a body out of the box. That can be very beneficial to the run game. 17 (Jaylen Waddle) is a major weapon. You can’t minimize his absence at all, so having him back is a huge asset.”

(Are you doing sleeves or no sleeves) – “No sleeves. It’s a football game.” (laughter)
