" accurate depiction alive down here Gillette Stadium -- as the Patriots Monday it's time cup he with a coach brought to you by Dunkin' Donuts Americo runs on dog. Good afternoon Bill Belichick what's good about it I ask you approach books though I don't. Well reality set in we heard press conference this afternoon we all know what story is how different. Was today here for use the coaching staff players such."

" I was very much a normal Monday Oakland terms of grade the film and mean the players and go over the corrections and -- sergeant -- for the Jets so it's. And feel bad that for Tom of course. You know ever otherwise and they will have a job to do and so we're going to do."

" Steve changeup what you do when you go from Tom Brady to a -- Armey we know the difference -- Murton with two players or whatever but there are certain things. That. Maybe one players comfortable doing or can do and the other one might not do you change -- but it indeed it that you do out there."

" Boy you know we change up quite a bit from week to week anyway Oakland you know different game plans based on who -- plan how we match up against them. So forth and sure I mean every player has things that are is little more comfortable up there -- is. You know favorite type of throws or plays or so if that's. You know that's -- case we'll do that but -- Basically what our offense is our offense and we've -- or keep on it and or modified on the week to week basis based on who we play him. But we think is suggestions it's -- as a misconception out there the visit Tom Brady playbook and Matt Cassel playbook and it's just not the case. -- closeness. I don't know with a lot well. Guys who had a lot of women -- guide -- events -- enough for the players to learn him -- playbook went one for every quarterback -- Controversy here lost all of us in the positive. -- has been east pre season he's been a long time is intelligent to look like he was. Very calm out there controlled the cadence that you -- and get rattled. Implement tickets. Throw -- end zones it was a huge play start and ninety air -- touchdown pass. -- you know excellent but not their high and back billions -- and scrambled -- couple times and so. I'm not perfect you know whenever is no quarterback or any player it's. But he could just -- of the Kaman and get the ball receivers that were open. And making bad decisions and and I -- throws almost thought went into form on the first play when he Kaman who's into the country was going to bring it wanna. Right. You know -- not -- consideration I think that it. And put quarterback in the game -- you run around the -- he runs a play call so I don't think anybody's. And -- defects -- standpoint and their felt that a Philip -- back in the game there enrollment of the Fella -- based on the situation. Was that first pass -- his move to 21 or two miles -- issue read on the play by Moss replica for. Well of the donate they we're trying to do was you know to get to the fence you know step -- will be on the play action greats of space there and they were basically and a man free kind of coverage and and ascertain came open and in any grand climates stack them and then ended nice job kind of shield the ball with his body. And then you know cut back on on the Roland got a few -- You know I don't wear a cover -- would go -- to you know like any receivers tries to get open -- open space but it was a good protection. We're probably fortunate that they. They have got a bit on the play as much as they did I think their probably though we're franchise runner punch out apartment and Josh. In image as an analyst -- that situation he's on the kind of play action on third and eleven but. You know on on -- yard -- it makes sense because there there pal and forced mechanically or steal money -- looks like -- often why it was much more cohesive. This week in my -- enough -- you know the Russians was at that on film. I thought our protection overalls was pretty good Fred you know we give up. A sack on the flea flicker were down by the ball and time ball handling on took place it just seems lol yeah with this that would generally. Wasn't going to play. Obviously and then that those timeouts Wellesley like four to but you know otherwise but the the protection was pretty good and a pick them touchdown pass of the that was one of our best plays where. We had good protection than. Then coping Kaman and really kind of pushed the pocket aside so that Cassell could step up and you know Mankins that's a good job in there on. At the line of scrimmage and and so you know that was able to step up and you know make -- good throw -- you know really at play time to get in there and -- rain -- catch those good good flow around but our offense wanted to jump."

" Bill -- local and national media thrown a bunch of names out there about quarterbacks that. Has had a cup of coffee or maybe even a little bit more than a cup of coffee somewhere in the National Football League. And questioning. Why Matt Cassel is the guy you talk about how much confidence you have and I gotta believe you're not going to bring the guy back. For fourth year unless you feel he can do something out there on the football field. Such as like as what are they missing what do you see in in Matt Cassel that you have the confidence in him that he can take over this football. Well I think."

" Thank yesterday's game as good example opponents the bigs evident so. Well obviously we talk about pre season games he -- the point preceding it was a practice UC. You know five practices a week in the media -- half -- game. Four times a year pre season -- the making the judgment you know you're brought their pre season you're trying to look at players and you evaluate with -- to oversee the process that is. And make your decision to keep a guy. Goes a lot deeper than just four pre season --"

" Yet right now meniscus goes for years so. I think what Matt did yesterday is what what you want what you want your quarterback to do is going to game not make any big mistakes. I'll make the plays that are there and managed attainment. And move the ball and move the team in the end zone and score some points and you know we had a chance to score a few more than we did you know in a penalty down their red area we turned the ball over twice. You know in good scoring position but you know we obviously liked it more than seventeen points but. You know I thought that we have you know pretty pretty decent. They move the ball offensively in and get ourselves in position we gotta finish of strides into the audience and you know get it up and of the Tony's where you know statistically. Your best chances of winning the defensive backs. -- quickly as. There's a big difference of office she was sincere in. -- Although is Allison. Oh Volvo with a big kids otherworldly they -- that's a tough matchup of small point was that look like -- pretty good job government. Yeah I think these receivers -- is bigger than they were going to see all year. Oh in Arlington. -- And it gets it and play Franklin. So that it's a big group and of course these Gonzales. As a receiver quite a bit this flexed and mountain so he's. In that he he's handfuls of that that's right they're sizes and it was a big thing in. In a lot of guys compete pretty well on they hit us on a couple of those third down plays or they just caught the ball right. At the stakes -- and it just barely enough for the first councils of the plan their part is going to get on below the tighter and take those away. It was. You know live a big group on offense and there their -- teams -- you know the backs -- date you know -- Johnson's day. And the receivers -- if -- offensive line's other their big physical team cut and along that Jacksonville lines of those kind of receivers."

" Given the -- magnitude of this -- him on the world but is there oppose us open. You have to address to the team -- of some that they understand in terms of where you go from here."

" Well we talked about a little bit mean obviously it's a big national story at all so. You know address the team I told them what. You know what would actually the facts were in. You know get two missile -- some things that are you know coming across the -- on the screen and all that right. Solid you know I did just that but -- you know the main thing is for all those that. And we got circuit rented Jets and move on -- got a job to do and we need to do well. -- on a Sunday against the Jets -- is that the you'll we have two quarterbacks dressed for the game. The possibility. It's definite possibility if that's where right now we're just. You know look what our options are going forward and make the best decision for the football team we're really. We haven't done that yet so when do whatever if if we decide the and a third then. It will feel like there's good reason for and if we don't that'll go we go through all the quarterbacks who brought and so that is true in the media. It is again no we haven't worked anybody oh -- those guys are coming in San -- know him Johnny Jones who available. No we didn't we we -- we haven't worked out and quarterbacks. And another a lot of course it got a lot of calls as you can imagine for an Asian Asian -- an idiot some players that want to play quarterback. But it really -- you know right now our computer. Right now we're not really. That's that's not the direction network where it's at the moment -- but is that we watched film and make some corrections remove on of the Jetsons and Cassell Connell league. The two main guys gone down there we had a third that we had a third if we don't we don't but right now and I'm playing with you know those two is Matt Gutierrez still out there. He has. Is -- a possibility. Yes he'd be an option he's one of the -- of the Dakota B Abreu guy and cool trick it knows nothing about this -- with -- game plan scheme. Coming in half and half the play impossible possible players on the -- was the -- it's not from -- well I think he -- brought somebody in the -- system meet at the -- expected it would take awhile for them to really be able to go out there and be functional and the it would take 34 weeks. Where you have to cut it back to the point where you. You know he you're really simplify things where we've made the only view on you know point 30% of our offense with the media couldn't -- commitment to that point. Is that they cut back pretty far. It was a that is a point don't I I -- that's I was in that situation one time in Cleveland where we. Who brought -- Mike -- Who wasn't with us and he started that game that week. That's they would probably went back about 30% off it's just a silly to practice it and the with the reasoning adjustments and all that that just wasn't any time you know really execute those between quarterback and receivers. Except on very limited basis and then you know he tried to -- through days ago but it was. That's that's brother's tough situations you could have."

" And Phillies were several of the terminology may be totally deaf but we've been talking about this during the course of this after it's amazing. And watching the -- appear with the NFL network and ESP you know whenever. There's all the speculation of bringing a guy in and you just glorified it would take awhile for even the seasoned veteran out that'd be able a couple of others. Is that one of the reasons that you would hesitate in in doing that bringing one of those guys in."

" You know I'm -- to do what -- Will Kevin Faulk we -- through this we can. Yet Kevin returned to the team today and and I I think that there's you know I would expect the pride is -- normal. You know normal week of practice and then his practice work is -- performance I would think that it theory for the Jets do to make a roster move to do that it we have to make a buy tomorrow -- a one day session with him -- so we -- nick by 4 PM Tuesday -- Brady and on the that you. He wasn't placed on the -- today and so it could be an option to respond. Yes yes."

" But I did you think most teams are going through. Assumed we don't know that you know that ordinance what you're most into going to assume that you're going to run the ball more. Because of injury to Tom."

" How can use that -- you know I mean I'm not sure what everybody else is -- end but. I think there that's certainly a possibility you know teams that look at that way and you know I think we do a pretty good backs of but the backs -- well yesterday so they they might. Be concerned about the running game I think you know hopefully they're concerned about a receivers to. And the passing game I mean I think in the end regardless of who your quarterback is you'd like to be a balanced offense and as much as we can do that. That's we've always tried to day and that's what will continue to try to be you know there's. If they'll if they want to run -- and you can -- then you throw if they won't let you throw -- then in need to run in run so. -- times in the game where you gotta do want to the other you know certain times in the game. Dictates you gotta throw and you Beriault pass block and throw on certain times and got to. Run for yarder to over ten on three downs and if you can do it you'll probably win and if you can't then. Now that -- stuff sergeant."

" Much -- play into your into your game plan with -- which just saying about what other teams are now going to expect from you how much does that change. What you can -- they're expecting something totally different -- with his quarterback and they were over the last quarter. Well I think when you go to any game -- you you know every team has its. That the court things that they do and they might have beat changeup spurred the particular team that they play -- in our case with you know we think they would do against us so. I'll make any teams in not have some common bounds there. You know -- we -- we would have that we have certain defenses that we would call and real running situations or maybe if that was. You know the weather conditions were such that we felt it would be really hard for that team to throw or throw into the wind or whatever. That we -- you know have have some of those defenses and our in our game plan at same time. You know we have some passing calls -- of the go ahead or. You know it's a -- down and distance situations first point 52 -- point you know you want to. Play -- you know you need to have those calls it is I think that comic extends and your preparations both ways. And then as the game goes and you play that team is sort get a feel for what to do and Christian then. If they're playing at a certain ways and you you know adjust accordingly. Playing -- man that plays zone were playing you you know pressure. In whatever form -- is so. Through Missouri leadership void. With Tom out of their and it's so how do you -- report."

" Well I think that every every player every coach needs to you know needs to do their job and and and the and if a person goes out when it's Tom everybody else. If a person goes out of lineup than the next person steps and needs you know perform that job is the best they can obviously Tom's great players that. And the penalty last year so I'm not saying that but it is anywhere the next guy is as do their job part of that position you know has the new leadership but. You know Matt and and Kevin and had to do that the past whether it's in around all Mike and mobile line. You know run a two minute -- whatever happens today and everybody else says the continue to. In -- do their job there's a lot of people on this team don't play quarterback and he -- They need to prepare to play their game and and do their job on Sunday just like quarterback goes so. I don't think you know the more we worry about it what are but it also is going to do and unless we focus on -- of them. I don't think we're going to do."

" It's a good point if and it's this it's not so much bring your game to the next level. -- that the importance gets injured it's not that -- game slip -- worry about what someone else him you know you have contain you get two gap. You that don't worry about trying to make the extra play and put yourself in position where that the team to take advantage of you making a mistake."

" Right exactly I hear people say well. You know we're going to have the you know rent the play good defense wanted to really give up well. That's we try to do every week if I'm going to go on their terribly good defense every week no matter -- quarterback is and while we're -- to the run the ball well. We ran the ball for five yards a carry with Maroney and Morse yesterday so. We're going to try to run the ball no matter who the quarterback is in it's reasonable what 20/20 nine times a game last year so. -- you know that's part of our offense."

" Let's get to go to the Jets this week's opponent instead of starting with the obvious with the additional -- they really beefed up. The stuff in the trenches on both sides of the ball and what do they present they -- for your right now -- that opportunity that's why. Well it read it two players they offensive linemen in fan Pakistan and Woodward and Woody and you know I think the big additional defense line is is Jenkins although you know paces outside linebacker -- he's one other front guys so. You know paces good pass rusher and and he's in his defense and and it hasn't situations. All the Gholston leads they bring him in to their campus -- to it's it's too. And and Jenkins is more first and second down player that. You know rotates in there with the other within those who have. So but I mean tickets was more of the time but than those of the big additions there and then you know it. That got rookie in our star in the secondary who's done a good job form you know long Revis and in the -- that's kind of jumped in there -- and a strong safety and Coleman's play its nickel back in place Poteat so. That's that's kind of the changes there on the Benson there offensively -- francs at night and along with Keller of the first round draft Roloson. And the receivers are are basically is similar. Chancy stuckey. Is as plates on the slot form he's the second year -- so. That's notes -- Leon Washington. And Cotchery and -- scholes. Acre. And you know some of the same -- on the fence David Pearson -- Aren't Thomason. On knows him. We don't know why -- I would showed -- how much of a difference or that it is their offense obviously they've got a guy who control of the deeper Maggette had last year. But they changed some stuff up to work stuff that was successful. For a -- before. I was that it they had to a certain degree Glen I think they've they've modified things a little bit EC more slant patterns and save fuel crossing routes than not that -- run before I would say that run a few more of them. And then you kind of have you know threats and provision plays. Like the touchdown that he threw was -- kind of you don't draw up that way if that that's laid -- NCA you have to certainly be rated defend those countless far. You know Regis. Fines and time then and then -- at some more you know -- outside inside the whatever emotional passes will be -- this -- just there he can't you can't really simulate those they just sort the hell happened and he. You know he he sees somebody doesn't so it's just more kind of being alert and --"

" We have a contrast thank you Patriots either guy that takes a game plan and execute to pretty close to the list. And doesn't make a lot of those -- wild throws buddies will more likely. -- big conducted death -- Here's a guy looking for the big bomb it sometimes makes you know the unfortunate thrall. He's more with electricity -- repetitive that there were difficult always -- team. But difficult Tigers seem likely to find the open receiver -- what was Brett will try to force salute some --"

" Iowa I think that Pennington is a very good decision maker he he's and he's accurate and as the strongest arm. You know that a quarterback we played he's got a good touch on the ball and he makes good decision that he knows where to go with the ball very seldom throws it -- in you know heavy coverage or. You know and a place where you you're really would want to put it. Favre will do that formal put the ball some type places and he has confidence in his arm that he can stick it in there and even though at times. And maybe if you're coaching young quarterback you -- so while when really recommend you make this throws is where you really want to put the ball but. You know Brett conceal window he's got a he's got a gun and and you just you know laser through -- and some of make it through you know some don't but. He he has -- confidence in his arm to do that and you know that puts the fence puts pressure on defense another way because you've. You know you can always count on him. Kind of not you know Seko if you play we play discovery she prior won't throw it over here well that's not necessarily true that. He thinks he can get in over there he he will throat so you know really forces you know tight coverage on every."

" It's time for the clean energy action -- count coaches question of the week this week's question coach comes from Gillian Chapman. Ngo and ask why it's a cover question. What are the basic differences between cover one cover to cover story. Tampa to win would they be used IQ and good luck this season."

" I would take about two weeks of training camp to explain all those that reports basically. I notice I asked. Basically on those numbers -- players are deep zone cover one of one deep safety cover two yet to deep safeties uncovered three. The safety in the course play deep and cover for. The corners and safeties all kind of you know play play sorted the if you run deep they'll -- all four -- So. You know Tampa two is a variation at two there's a lot of variations of the 33 slide three those. You know three Naples. Three bingo -- you know --"

" Wrong to answer them like -- you know there but if the Jets are really it's in general terms how many players are deeply discount categorize and and -- a man coverages. With -- other numbers are different combinations of man coverage isn't variations each coverage so. You know to Tampa to slide to match. Urges variations of comfort to the."

" The final four weeks of those preakness until -- retirement years story never Patriots money this year when we talked to the curriculum chance the submit your question. As the coach at W yeah -- that counts football page of the question shows you automatically win. 100 dollar gift card to the all new audio straight year Patriot place. The coach is question is our golf season won't like clean energy action done. When you're like on the clean energy action that you'll find a strong wind into a lot more than push their revenue not to you put the winning field goal and our media writes. A tackle your energy costs and alternatives to clean energy action."

" We'll toast of ego and that would -- No future well total total truth. I coach congratulations to the -- yesterday. Or at least. One little. Bonus -- today on a football game here now one eligible one with 11 at a prologue and and denies and Raiders their defense late in the game. But the five plays. That would still was called for a moment before it was right before the report yeah we took two timeouts down there is. Yeah they're never out windows on television and went to people or in the old stadium into -- I don't know India publicist for divorce agreement that's it was -- situation -- just. We're at the fence that does that look like it was community. It and and along cadence to call them. -- what would happen that we distant like the looks -- Do you do in the fishing is an efficient -- this old saying goes the camera. I'm sure. Our coach and see -- an excellent it and -- steal a thrill I checked my hero Patriots Monday of the fictional."
