On the Raiders run defense:
"They're always trying to get an extra hat in the box by bringing a safety down so they have numbers and I think that's what helps them in the run game. Obviously, they're very physical up front, they've got a great D-line and great pass rushers on the edges." – Colts quarterback Sam Ehlinger
On quarterback Derek Carr:
"Derek Carr is my boy. He's a great quarterback. He makes great throws; he's accurate in his throws. He trusts and believes in his receivers as you can see when you watch film. … He believes that they're going to get it and actually, how he talks in the media about his guys, you can tell he has confidence in his guys." – Colts cornerback Xavier Rhodes
