Ben Baby has a rather extensive report on Williams and Cappa on espn if anyone's interested:

Among statements (some mentioned by Pally above):
Taylor didn't indicate if Williams will be available for this weekend's divisional playoff game against the Buffalo Bills. "Hard to tell," Taylor said.
"I thought he [Carman] did a nice job, especially being thrust in there," Taylor said. "He's gotta practice both sides during the week. He's practiced a lot of guard this year as well. I thought given the opportunity that he had, against a tough defensive line, I thought he handled it really well."
Late Sunday night after Cincinnati's playoff win, Cappa was spotted wearing a protective boot on his left ankle and using a push scooter to maneuver around the locker room. Taylor also said Cappa's status for the playoff game against the Bills was week-to-week but said he saw some progress.
"I saw him curling a towel in there with his toes and he looked good," Taylor said. "It seemed like that was progress when I walked in. That was exciting for the room."
Taylor said the sacks incurred against Baltimore were for various reasons and not indicative of the offensive line's overall performance.
"They were all a little bit different," Taylor said. "But we feel good about it. The line certainly gave us plenty enough to win that game.
