DENVER BRONCOS QUOTES (1/5/12)

HEAD COACH JOHN FOX

On S “It’s day-to-day, and he didn’t practice today.”

On preparing for the blitz “We’ve seen plenty of it. It’s pretty commonplace in the league. Sometimes it’s about players, not plays, and they’ve got good players. In the regular season, they were the No. 1 defense in the , and have been probably in the top five over the last I don’t even know how many years. [Pittsburgh ] Dick LeBeau is a great coach. They’ve got a good football team.”

On G Russ Hochstein “He definitely has experience. He stepped in last week, and I thought did a terrific job. We expect the same this week.”

On former Pittsburgh “He’s a great coach, and I was very blessed to be an assistant coach for him. At the end of the day, he’s a real technician. He takes football back to the fundamentals, brings a tough mentality, and I think that was exhibited through his teams when he was with the Steelers.”

On if he uses Noll’s style of coaching “People say you are what you eat, so you are who you’ve kind of been around. He definitely gave a lasting impression for sure.”
