Bill Belichick

I speculated they show it's patriots money back Canada perch here at Gillette stadium Freddy's rows -- the she paid the whole crew -- Africa team the coach -- brought you by Dunkin' Donuts America runs on Duncan. But it after the coach are under entered. You're all right Steve all right -- that some his wish today it was a you know -- we have to -- medications like them. We have established for excrement and it's six open rectify that our tickets are almost always a signature at the trump. Coach who moves he's just wanted to -- you know. Well -- opportunity to look at the -- today you obviously were not thrilled yesterday as evident by Europe post game restaurant but it was a winner as you said. I'm seeing the different on the thing.

Naw I think I don't think either team played their best game that -- with it and you know without some plays out there. Cleveland gave us some problems scheme wise they they did some it's good some good game plan ideas and good concepts that you know we in the just as quickly as many attitudes on the -- great day coach in our plan. But that being said you know in made more plays and made it -- a -- to win and so it's you know it's good to win and it's good to move on -- Dallas but. Some things we need to do better and hopefully you'll. We have to get those done on the defensive side of the ball there was a couple of quick slant -- things over the middle open without coverage with a drop coverage -- guy does not pick up his mayoral. The district of as the deepest right we had a couple missed assignments just some communication errors or on -- though we're and one thing somebody -- Lawrence miles and we just cut him loose so there were there too many of those. In all phases of the game that we had you know we're just had the breakdown and against some I was. Caused by the situation thickly put us and they stressed the slope that we Houston that handles the way we we need to handle. Surprise they were it would double team Austin's effectively as they did. Well it they put a lot of coverage over the tone and you know that opened up some things force some of the places -- we we still this we need a better job of recognize and you know we can -- plays little but better that we did neck and so. But they did a good job that they definitely you know some things -- want to take way and they they've agreed to.

Beauty was played almost to a fault football until the the third quarter of yesterday's game to the skewed view something to throw at them for the -- in preparing you know for go and give him something to improve upon to look at -- to realize that they. Might of youth as good as -- prepare.

Well -- I don't think that we played -- appalled by any stretch I think we've had our our moments. And you know I think right now you're at that point in the season you know we're basically a third of the way through the season and you know teams have had you know 345 games to look at us in the regular season and and they are decide how they want to play -- and what they think how they want to attack us with a -- weaknesses are and maybe what they think are strikes -- and they want to take away so that we know a lot more about how how other teams see us now that we did you know month ago. And that we're going to make some adjustments to that we've been making some of the program makes more. And or some things that that we need to work on the -- sure other teams. Are getting better out of -- when you get better and -- that certainly situation football league. You know one of them within have a good day on third -- we struggled in the red area defensively. -- our return game hasn't. You know has been sporadic so there there -- a lot of situation things that we need to keep -- an island and and I think we can make some plays there week in and now.

That is -- a lot of people would seem to keep a lot of people back trying to take their chances in in coverage. Do you do you think the teams are going to try to -- with different things and then yesterday it was obvious they were over point moss. But he found other people open up there is that what teams are going to try to do constantly get away from what they do best and try to exploit you guys.

Why I think that's you know that's certainly something we're going to be aware of climate that we're going to be ready for that in games. Plan council differently than they played the team before you know some other opponent that we watch on film might look at this little bit differently. Thickly shortly after that the Cleveland play you differently than the way you sort going into the game what you expected. Well I think that. They hadn't we hadn't seen them play team quite like they played doesn't put that -- and so yeah I mean day you know they did some things not that we had never seen them do that in a lot higher frequency and you know kind of exact opposite Olympic jets players -- the jets pressure -- Lawton. And that really help cover the outside receivers much you know Cleveland did a lot more that -- pressure. It when your takeaways some dogs who gives you something how fast was there. For the guys to recognize -- to almost offensive coordinators to recognize what their scheme was before -- coaches to adapt to. -- I think we could see it you know first second series it's this. You know that it's not so much then taken one guy away it's a -- in it'll move the ball in the third quarter you know. -- not convert on third downs and and a lot of those third downs -- Michael wasn't like they were all third that means go you know we have a lot of penalties out there. None of which are really necessary you know couple base man's. Kickoff out of bounds -- all star stuff like and so we you know. But all those are easily preventable and so it's -- wasn't any one thing I just think collectively as a team within. Executed also capable of well thank. It was a particularly good job coaching and we need to do better job as a as a coaching staff of preparing the team and and haven't in Mexico -- alternatives does some things worse and so -- and you know collectively we've just got to. You know work harder and keep keep -- they -- at the competition. And the competition's good did you feel that the team coming in with a little fatigue from the money and I it was always some residual effects from. Well that gets better question asked the players but I think that. You know it's it's one day shorter but you know we play once a week and so we've we've had a period of play that one day a week in. As we all know -- every long weeks a short week -- every home games an away game and so in the end it all balances out there but he uses and things so. I'm I'm not as concerned about that schedule and all that it's just. You know going out therein and you know doing the best we can with the opportunities that we I think we -- get a little bit more I don't know what we did yesterday and it starts -- and goes that the coaching staff the players and you know our our our performance advocates can be better than themselves. But this team is one team that's smart enough to recognize you really have to -- ago who. How much screwed up -- you put the film those guys -- thing. I -- as a -- guys on this team didn't recognize after the him off the field that was screwing up. Well again I don't think it was all bad I just think -- I think their thinks -- the better I -- you know we -- a lot of good things yesterday we scored a lot of points. You know we have the quarterback equipment a lot of plays on defense. And we we played against probably as good returns there's in the National Football League so it wasn't all bad. I just want to continue to press in look at the higher ground improve our competitive level. There was five point as we can take it at all to -- is. This physical games since the at Tennessee exhibition in my there was a physical -- it was a very physical and if there was a lot of lot of hard enough there and the browns are physical team and you know I think that we're going to have to be -- that this week against Dallas because tells as a as a very physical football team broke his physical thing but have seen in awhile so. -- you know what we saw Sunday -- a very little currency -- on the two junior practiced that midfield celebration. It's always two. It stopped -- don't know no we lost track we're a but his inexperience of playing this is going to go up slightly to receive a great -- blocks agreement. Well there're couple things on -- split wasn't you know wasn't just that solely you know and when you get an interception like that. You know everybody's all excited on silent everything really if that's a league that theory go right back and we had good field position you know if he scored her here you -- something play. Mania Randall gay play on when -- then. You know you're you're right back out there the next place so any corrections that you need to make you better make -- is the indictment and I come right back up anyone's Adams. We just thought about a couple things play I know he doesn't like that was the best player I think we are no matter collateral what what -- do now though we've done that

we have to have sort of been -- A lot of tree announced yesterday which is unusual -- that -- the first to four weeks. He's talk about the defense coming right right back on the field -- let the defense that -- back on the field record record off. And -- game

well we did we did have been down third down offensively and and again those situations weren't weren't that long wasn't like that -- third and ten pulses. So you know we've got to do better jobs some you know we. Couple plays we had you know -- great plays against -- scheme that that they had called you know we missed some receivers we dropped some balls. You know we've had a penalties so there -- there are things that we did that. Didn't help ourselves and and Cleveland cause some problems -- so -- combination of those two things that. Bottom line is we've got to be able to stay on the field you know for more three plays offensively it's just. Hughes can go three and out that's. What will never scored on it that way so we we've -- out of a wall there in the action there and third quarter but we're able. You know keep possession of the ball fourth quarter we you know long drive and whoever hang on the fallen and you know. Get those points and and and that you know when when they cut it to ten point game but that was an important drive for some guys really responded executed well so. At what point do taking time off the club become more important -- score. Or what I'd I really didn't think it it got to that point until we. Kind of went into the goal line those four -- and down there about three minutes ago because they were. You know it was it was two score game as a 13 point -- and the way they scored was worth replacing him downfield -- we saw that couple times united -- like weaver. You know in in great shape until we made -- the last time outs then we threw it there on fourth down but we felt like while they're going to be. You know along way from the end zone no timeouts and needed to scores and then of course we got the strip then that and two SS Rodney Harrison mean came back -- month off look like he was. Bottle on most people anticipated -- play. -- did some good things I think there are other things that you know he's he needs work on the mean you know there's another guy hasn't been out their plan for the last month that he hasn't I think that. He's not with them you know he had a good week of practice than at the keys and certainly get there's a lot of experience he had good training camp. So hopefully he'll you know make strides every -- he goes down field and you know be at the top speeds and Q well coverage that was -- about the overbay put views -- what went to a pretty much we're never know for most of the game. Right week you know Winslet got a got a step on a couple times and and they had them but you know it was competitive it was competitive. Jim Henderson is a pretty pretty heady guy handled toss play to -- back coming out of big strong controlled the ball well look like you're confused about your ties with. -- had a quarterback with a good. Well their talent attainment and they score a lot of points as grow up points with a lot of people so you know it I don't think there's any doubt about their ability to score move the ball got a good offensive line and you know -- and their little list there yesterday. And and that helps themselves then they're pretty get up from Newton and in other tickets skill people and you know it doesn't surprise me that they they move the ball and and won't surprise me if they score on anybody that are there that are explosive offensive football team. Those are concerned the punting game now seem like Cleveland get good field position of those sponsor's. Well I think there's so again room for improvement everywhere you know certainly we can improve in our -- our running game our punt coverage in improving our return game kickoffs but you know you -- I don't think there was too much out there is that it. I think we can. Field atlas there's just no way to improve on you know there's this a lot of things we do -- special teams are at their. When our offense and defense Indians.

The situation. Earlier in the game get a fourth and five and I believe -- Cleveland's 40 or Atlantic -- we were all talking -- at that time when it happened. We are wondering whether you're gonna go for it at that point pitches seen in the office seem to be moving down on the field to give any thought at that time. About about going for a

we get a little -- consideration at that if that maybe the very dependable shorter when when -- out of maybe gone for I don't know but it just this it was at that point there was too much field position at stake in. And you know felt like we can play defense put all along field got a good -- offense and the last -- one it is in the ball you know on the field. One of the rumor floating around out there is sympathetic though came through you want to run up but Romeo. We can -- that. -- I mean we've we were trying to they're trying to get that you know the set I thought that 13 points and really. And -- Michael Lewis know going to -- hole up so. What part where you're trying to score their rate you know right at the end we ended up not scoring offensively we -- when -- strip the ball from Winslow but. You know we're trying to get it and there.

What was going through with the rest of stickers that he kicked a field goal. Then you've got a kick -- they got a really good return guy he can score just like that I think without using much of that that much of -- O'Clock in the what was. Well.

Basically -- I -- the only way we -- Runners troubled media to get the kick block like what happened in the jets game last year or as you say make the -- and then you know you're still you gotta deal with their return game and and you know to score stills. Them you run the clock and run the ball seeing the brilliant wanna. Not in -- control the ball loose kill the clock -- the clock down under a minute but I -- was a progress of maybe recommended -- about medical you know Kyle took a few you know took a few snaps in there and you know we. Well Lawrence we were you know down four backs and and you know thank heavens really the not that he can't do it and he's a good player but you know he's not really assured back forth so you know Sammy is -- a lot of snaps and and you know than with island and he those are kind of here you know. Shorter expect full back in whichever way you want plan and in both carry the ball Campbell played full -- blocks. You know that's that's pretty much with what we have at that point you know Sammy go like carries carries last week. And you know and and he can take them but at same time we got to the guys that that is so not -- gotten -- you know and ran competitively you know one. When good -- worry. I'll run -- third of the right side that night. I've moved on to filling in for that open you know -- that a good -- the -- but he played the -- solid game. The communication -- he and nick and and -- you know in particular those guys really did it from the alias Thomas leaves the field in the second quarter comes off real fainted. And then under qualified cups water to a third quarter Rebecca stark we are concerned worry when that happened. Well he you know when a guy like that is is -- field. In the you know Felix froze some wrong you know 80s he usually enough one -- you know. Sunday it out there so these I don't know -- look like they you know they kind of look and tape him up their halftime -- and I talked and come back -- he says that he. You know he felt Gooden and use -- way to go so those -- care -- in here you know he never -- situation and.

I'll get to the next week's game late Sunday game. Against the Dallas Cowboys we'll see them to bite on. Monday night football -- be impressed and certainly until the second area on this. -- talent -- ability. The talent terms. Tony Romo kind of ago gunslinger like you're young -- five makes things out of nothing that last time -- With two weeks ago with a Baldwin overstated went back and -- an -- prospect like 30 yards and a get a first pick. That can improvise.

He can he he's very athletic he can run he's quick in the pocket he -- it was art got a sack. And he's good passer he can pass in the pocket in Dayton you know a bootleg amounts stuff like them throw on the run and and scramble companies that are productive player their receivers are good the tight ends are real good they got a couple that backs and -- physical but the lines there. There there's physical -- of blindness in a long time there. They're really -- when you watch -- the target tonight you know down draw it would deny him some you know. You know at the relative to watch the game on TV is that it's it's hard to get. Much analysis really is just -- options and Kelly I would just like the rest of us we have an extra point four I mean it's just me don't take this you know take -- record -- is -- put out about the game. What we -- on. I don't think it hard it's just that the way -- I can't see all the players' -- are but the skis more.

Man -- is it is that frustrating for you and -- when you're looking at coaches that he gets. Everything and that's the way you basically formulate a game -- when you're watching game like we're watching how frustrating is it for.

Well you just don't want -- don't try to look for that has that you can't see it you know you can't see the coverages and and you know where everybody unless they. Go back and sometimes they go to -- tell straighter and you know sends over. Or somebody men or whoever -- we'll show you up a picture of the play where you can see it from kind of a -- is -- NC lewis' they. Rotated coverages they lineup a lot of times you can't can't tell formation you don't know what you know really what what you know how the two teams ski -- they're matching up against each -- so. There's there's a few guys on the screen and you know or with -- you can watch one of them and you don't see them rush the passer runner past rounder you know whatever it is an enemy and it's great as a fan it's very entertaining but it's. It's not really well we used to two. To scout a team more or formulating game plan is just not enough information on the -- so you have a special camera that you -- in the game.

particulars but little else let me. Let Clement go -- there do you -- still looking like him -- by the -- you know again they -- criticize in my of music is crucial -- flown to sit and watch the games and they will be watching -- play -- next -- it's time you can report you know. Regular -- You know -- answered questions we don't know what the coverages like -- last few. A question I don't know what you coverages which drops him and tied for us to see him and it's sort of almost a waste of time you watched.

Well again it's it's entertaining and and sometimes you can you know see some things you know but it's it's certainly not. In terms of football coaching it it's not. The anywhere close to the same tool that you get -- the coaches films where you can conceal 22 players who want to let us in the month would you sometime -- time.

While we would occur because Alou or what about Steve I don't know I didn't really know about this Connecticut -- NCAA species of plants and I thought it was closer I'm closer what you have comfortable with these two of the cerebral players sort of -- read closely with a meeting -- Another -- to -- Ellis. You shot out all the traffic while I'd never seen stuff it's Trixie duplicate it I -- I -- can be built you remember it -- these storms scorers with.

It's back to Tony Romo paper for a second because you can sit. Game plan for certain quarterback and figure out what you're going to do keep them apart whatever in Japan. But in my almost case -- for -- like -- filed and that he's the master -- and yelling like breaks down and suddenly he finds a way out of it. How do you coach that want to play breaks that how do you deal with. The a backup plans the other certain -- you going to deal with -- if stuff breaks down if you.

Well you've got a way keep quarterback in the pocket so that that the biggest problem when he gets outside the pocket and in you don't you don't have control of that is. The amount of extra time he has the throw and you just can't -- forever so the longer the play goes the more likely somebody's gonna get open and get -- play enough not little ones so haven't controlled in the pocket it is does one thing then what if he gets out of there than you have to decide you know how how you're going to handle that if years in Allen -- zone coverage something like that and he just cut your losses and you stay back and he runs it runs. But that's probably going to you're probably going to give off fewer yards and if you try to come -- get many throws it over your head and you know probably -- twice as much you know if -- man to man coverage dangerous because now there's nobody that's got to. You know everybody's lock up on -- man and in the scrambles out there's a lot of there's a lot of -- room there's so -- and that's one quarterbacks for the most part or more inclined to run you know -- when -- man to man coverage they see everybody's. Covered man to man they're tight and so they know there's nobody left for them and if there's an opening there and they got through with that. You know that's that's a dangerous situation if you want to put somebody on -- as a spy then you know you can do that that just. Give you one less guy go to to cover everybody else you gotta cover so. You know so you you know you make those choices there's nothing wrong with any of them but he is got to make sure the defense is sound. And you know how to handle this this prevalent situation when it comes up who's got a -- and what you're going to give us open. You know sometimes your federal let them run and you are trying to come up again adamantly and -- here.

And good offenses will also have contingency plans for. Broken plays with one receiver come back to the quarterback when she grows silent one guy going deep so there's -- of those two.

Right yet I'm sure them and they're good because he scrambles quite -- bitten and there are players are used to you know make in the scramble adjustments. Sure they're better in the we are because -- they do you know so. You know keeping him in the pocket is is is good but. I'm not at the expense of you know interest in coverage in the back again you know plays and who primarily -- pocket throw was not look and run more often well right I agree with that but for the most part that's true threat but on the other hand he gets out there -- nobody really out there he he will run and again when he when he likes to -- while quarterbacks like two runs on third down in in close to the goal line word. Those critical situations where penalty. If your answer is six yards on third and four mean not that they play -- appearance -- on first and ten. You know that's that's a lot easier to live with that but you know -- you know third down conversions on the quarterback that's. That takes an idea but it it's nowadays it's like having a six the receiver you don't increase in the day got -- speakers series bracelets opera series your ready theory Terrell Owens in regards to all of the guys -- trees support to the best of them against. Well he's he's good and he's got as you know his own style of play I mean this is a very physical receivers at least. He's big innings fasting get them feel they can throw the ball to mingle and get it the problem. That compounds what compounds promises ability -- short -- to -- runner can break tackles. You know and and run through the defense so you know we -- in the Super Bowl when it's Philadelphia. So he's dangerous Natalie unity you can say well you know going to play off on the get back in island get behind us. You know he can take a little five year as you know -- that this -- a tackle and and that's 40 earned runs so it's not. It's not as easy disable that -- island get behind this because he sees this as dangerous on the -- places along the surprise of this team came out strong as the you know changing coaches in the whole new system comes in. In what seems to work together so we recently -- some teams -- and they didn't. Well they're they're playing very well there the playing very well there there explosive offensively and and they're solid defensively it got really good front seven they're hard to -- you know it's just it's hard to get all blocked up on you might get you know one or two or three of them but it's. Not very often that that'll seven of those guys get off in a running game and and you know in the astros' -- for five minutes it's it's it's party animal you know. And if you just walking five guys like most teams aren't getting you know five receivers out than. In the double one of them but then -- me at three other guys long ones in and start. They're trying to help much on where and and it's good that you know now he's but the guy's gotta worry about. They can Newman back tonight to as very well that's great through over I'd like to show the scope well scoped on good think dance you know -- it better he's. They're closer the end of the week and you know. Well obviously we didn't do anything today you or more council Stewart thing threw him on on Wednesday it was Kabila. You know the little more practice that is lastly -- surprised a tough BC players.

It and smart though it's not a good look at them cued up now about surprise. And what drive it longer history oil just exception to started five to be stuffed into a lot this when you with him and bill and I don't they go on down their two -- although in right and I look forward -- the world will be put these over 300 directive for the so many a time defectors are is really would know.

I and I you don't talk a lot of interest situation but I wondered if there's a difference for you. Home games and road games if a guy's real close we're guys right on the -- he might be able to play. It's a matter of you know an extra 24 hours or whatever is it easier -- home games. To make that decision when they're right here as opposed to make the decision have a -- travel him until the day before

nominal thanks and it's this. Sometimes you know question of what treatment you can give them that you know for the most part we -- all our our equipment's pretty horrible. We you know take -- listen and do we need do. You know any and it just comes down to if it's a game time decision of going out there you know in the morning before the game. And work in the player route with our trainers doctors and our our strength coaches and and put them through the different movements that that he relate to his injury or relate to his position until -- do. And see how can see how that feels to them NC you know how it operates and that's. It's it's good and you know we've. We might decide to go element that's obvious isn't it isn't a mean and sometimes you get in the question though of okay eat he can do those things and it in the feels okay doing but then how long's it last. You know as a going to be you know as a really ambulances for the whole game with talk about us you know he plays before it's going to. You know start. You know come back again and and obviously -- answer that question but those kind of decisions based. Finish roster -- strike guys if you ordinary if there's an early exactly right and that's the and that's the worst thing can happen -- you know have a guy leave early in and your plan for reforms that 45 so. Again it's a very inexact science -- and it's clear cut that these. You know okay he's -- feels great trade ago he can do everything you know no problem it's it's the other ones -- and you know. Can do something can't quite open can make all of you know as good cut in -- cut now away now on the plan for. You know an analyst at things and that's. In a different -- greater now you can make this is in the -- clears. Right yet oh yeah right absolutely yeah Allen and you know Fred you you know those walls and the guys -- you know you're never on a personal you know so. The -- now and then by the time you get the middle. And training camp out -- you know it went through I was old drinking -- in Australia -- you know every player -- you know the difference between -- manage it and do your job and then you know -- in limited -- what you can do. Again there's times when players are limited and they can still be effective he'd have to work on those limitations.

For its 32% the effective for a reflection it's better than anyone else there's no match I've read -- for the MVP Volkswagen dealers coaches question of the week visit any of the seventh MVP VW dealers to the questions coach. You know automatically eligible -- February vacation in Miami no purchases necessary great forever in my head coach this comes from shipments boat. Who would like -- give an example of the post. I'd like you to give an example of opposing player who was very difficult to -- a defensive game plan for. And what are some techniques you can use to minimize lawn -- is impact him.

there that's hard. Well let me to urgently take like Aaron Schobel for buffalo he's he's -- got a game plan for. Because he's so versatile he can he he's got a good speed rush he's got a good counter -- words start to speed and come back inside he plays -- power and then on top of that they move morale and so you know you can kind of set up things say you're going to you think he's going to be in one place and any kind of you know say your block enough where you think he got help on him and it turns out he's over somewhere Olson and you don't have them or he lines up where you think he's going to line up. But then on the -- of the ball he stunts some more Olson and sponsor -- another area so you think you're going to. Take way to speed prospect but the guy outside Ohman and bumping him when he runs -- the field bananas are on the field now he you know he runs down inside so -- be an example of you know how you want to try to maybe game plan with a particular player but. Then find demand more him being in the spot where you can actually get that help sometimes it doesn't work out

We're all -- just did you know at that time when it when it happened and -- move the -- the times in a removable the we all in -- real golf but -- but that's who had a less aggressive -- on notice -- would be. If you like best coach questions went ideal local MVP Volkswagen dealer like South Shore VW in Hanover. Boston VW in -- we can now get the old age at a complete with German engineering ABS CB power windows for just 159 month check your MVP. Calm again MVP VW dot. For all -- the Yankees or in Bartlett well that's about was my question is is are we going to go five games errors that speak Italian and that night I agree on if -- la o's. If the five innings giving the Yankees win if they don't. I think this is one of those require respiratory problems we've got a high scoring game tonight the Yankees will get to Paul Byrd and the Indians will get to long. And this is with a that's what prevailed coach.

Most every Thomas left in the in the and -- In then Norton Arizona I don't know Murton. Burnett this event that's a division to -- a time out what I would rather see a ball -- there was really Yankees go through Cleveland coach from the that would be more than I've gotten a -- beauty I don't sleep you think are much different grip around. Coach thanks go like it was this week that as noble check
