Bill Belichick

" Iowa about a big show that to a to a Bill Belichick is doing what he produced the deer caught with a coach brought -- Dunkin' -- America through drugs. 2 look at after the approach epitomized what. A team we did it was. After two analyst goes it was going to. Steve threats against a silicon -- in the black hole out there there was -- T shirt like an uproar about it -- we will we we -- to -- W usually agree with that's still that's still. As bad as -- it'll last six years. They still as pretty rent increase it's yet they do their generate there in the park in and you try and stay at the first and to go by I think they'd intentionally set up there. Detailed it right there says what's the most -- heard from that. -- You know. It's been great Agassi yeah. It was evident that they got a hit that what they're doing is working out this inexcusable of -- There's I think there's still mad about the snow bull the boundaries. -- appoint a team like the Raiders. When a look at some of the guys or kickoff return dispute they haven't back and receiver and a big offensive line and that's why it's it's an elective they have no play is both those things -- just to play for a lot of teams. That's why reward if they do get it together on the day you play him can be a big problem. Well it they have very."

" Talent team they -- line fast guys and you know a lot. It's fortunate that week out of two -- in the game. You know opening tackle -- inside the ten yard line of action and stop them three and out comfortable back on return. Scored kicked off again and then there holding penalty on the return short on the score. Not you know week yeah it's. -- great start the game all three phases. Provided some scoring. Field position opportunities for the offense in the -- that's capitalized and indians' Paul Thompson -- huge. There was -- report of some during the week -- a fast start -- if it really was Steve -- watched the Baltimore game. You know they got a ball morally. Atlantic on morally -- at a San Diego -- their previous game and -- we just really wanted to try to make sure that early in the game we. Knew exactly what we're doing and we executed well and felt like you know the mission statement with if they manage it and I think it'll leave town so it worked out what worked so with -- to put more emphasis on the court the young quarterback to try and figure in his hands instead of those running backs and a -- XP. Yeah I'd say their team that plays very well from ahead they've got a good pass rush and got a good good running game and and you know that's it for them it's great and make a play from ahead got to play from behind. Then the kind of -- little bit of their past Russian make some plays you know wants in the running game and and you know they're not probably the best downfield passing team that that or proceed so they realize a lot of play action so you know getting ahead of them kind of I think hampered a little bit of playing style they would like to be in. But listen to Vince Wilfork and -- which have been talking about Russell and if he ever gets is you know what together how his act. How incredible he he could be. But he's just he's just not quite there but how -- you compare him with electric got their Culpepper seems even bigger than him I mean that he's he's got normal proper -- to ever bring -- the -- he's is that a unique specimen out there. He has Beattie he's day he's -- move very well comfort -- to be you know walking -- for of the week and effective route for a pretty good back there. It's got a great arm and you know like every young quarterback experience and and playing confidence than. Getting in the same system sure changed coaches. And all that that's that's a little bit of slowed battle that but he he's very -- Definitely harder wearing down and you know big man pocket."

" With the time that Matt Cassel missed from week to vote for his followers. Stuff -- the -- this -- Drifted paired on the game plan or take -- or or or and approachable differently."

" Well Steve he came back he went down Saturday I mean Wednesday morning and came back Wednesday nights -- we knew he was just gonna miss one day of practice there. But he had -- although that Tuesday meetings in the Wednesday night and Thursday means when he got back so. It was just -- one day practice we expect that and to be back and and play in the game. And we when -- was -- planning in and the cute and Kevin O'Connell to split the reps there on Wednesday for practice they run they run a lot. Man coverage they run that -- run most that seem to be a bad matchup took with a speed quickness receivers you have versatility to have. To be a bad matchup for them and they did stay with the most of time and then. Right they'd they'd they'd like they like to play a lot of man to man coverage of the free safety for -- you know based on formations sometimes when you get the receivers close together. It's hard to claim in man coverage because the defenders get -- Dolphin also in the running game. -- you have lawyer offenders and -- so close that it's you know they have good leverage on the outside plays -- they did checked to some zone coverages on certain looks and certain formations. And with a good it was -- variable that the take advantage of some of those like for example on the pass to Welker over the middle on play action look like there. Or you know loss of Augusta playing a zone -- doesn't plan man men and they left him wide open. The first third down where he just you know ran and hope that and over the slot area it was. You know pretty open their third five so you know sometimes I think there were little. Out of place on some of those coverages but they're primarily a man to man based team yes we'll -- he picked up some you consistent with the -- To mandate yet they didn't really do anything that we hadn't seen before in any other games now so America I was locked eyes from the back to break through last original and they they run off. You know because you know couple long runs there was no right yeah what happened was they right date they kind of got into. Will we -- the receivers in close they move the corners outside it is to keep a better run force position and in the running game and they just were able to get in their support the rounds that we were kind of block and six on six or. Seven on seven. On a number of plays and and you know -- in the final little bit of a gap there and they just they never had that extra guy. To support on the running game -- kinds eleven of Japanese guys destroyed them online and it was from neutral of their rope and a woman and and and Morris and Jordan ran really really well -- Meanwhile two dogs yeah I think it yes Lamotte that are really good week of practice of the spectrum low line blocked well. And and really listen Randy gave us an outstanding blocks down fielded got a -- next earth they really powerful threw a couple times at date yes on the we we have some good downfield blocking by the receivers this -- block -- line of scrimmage by offensive line that they. You know they they did a very good job of frolic in the backs in the line of scrimmage in the backs ran well on the secondary. With some help from the receivers they broke some tackles and that's good -- that there was a stat that -- it was during the game out or commentator -- missed and I don't know if you knew this but the Raiders had not completed a third and ten. Since week three. Did you did you guys wearing tennis there was a close third and ten plus since week three. -- We've we knew that they weren't very good in that area missed that matches up well just defensively we and then cricket it is a but we I thought yesterday we did have a much better job on our third down in and you know like 45 plus situations but once they convert where at third shorts -- would close on them. It will light almost and play and 13 short and a timely. On short yardage play at the run right at the line of scrimmage kind of fell forward that list for them versions -- at the stakes though. You know we're a lot closer we events of previous weeks and analysts mostly forced about run out on the it was a slam pick. But on the first -- with numbers and broke the receiver broker a short pass and -- we're doing is running out there. And -- out. Victim but Pickens touchdown run it yeah what was yeah we -- going to blitz and -- attract crossing pattern and you know -- kind of beat its cross field -- locked up man to man coverage where it and get a good chance at tackle moment you know we got -- an open field knows he can struggle. Well yeah he's excellent punt returner and and I want to couples the punt return for him. Steve fan who go to junior I don't know whether to try to break it was during the for a sort of missed over the -- our living they were all there was yards on the caught up in the bullets scenario we we at all or are we are. Blitz and on that and then. Jerod -- almost hit that they hit mark Russell just he threw the ball but it Lewis's book second to Lleyton. And that against it connections and if he ever on the field. Interesting play happened at the end of the second quarter program where we're at the end when when Jeff you like to believe that we immigrant -- seconds of the clock -- is that something you practice and how difficult is it for. -- have been polite Paxson -- it because it -- the clock right away we're 12 left dollars that's WQ yeah actually practice and yeah where we were you know we got."

" We've. We've been through that people obviously not not well enough that just we we just and do their job the end of the half and that really. You know all of my it's my my responsibility don't think at that a good job on that that. You know we have one timeout left and we always try to save a timeout kicked the field also in on the run the vehicle team on a no huddle. Situations so we save the time out that we had to use that because of you know vote we'll look that we got to the fence and even a clock will stop that we didn't so we will -- time out there than. With whatever was my two point some seconds left then Cassel scramble. Got tackled clock was run and we spike the ball -- who were coming back we. We. Didn't do good -- lineup and illegal formation and then at the last second when we moved to to get legal then that was a penalty so. Even still we get the field goal team on we're rated ago and the clock started as soon as the refereed mark the ball ready for play. And and obviously giving the ball snapped and timely then in all those things should have been done right and none of them were and so. -- got to do a better job of of getting our team prepared at that situation it it fiction than that art. We just you know I just. What was the what was the breakdown on their kickoff return and then what was the key to -- to offer from. Well on on their return you know it's it was one of those place the where we had about three or four guys right there and just the way that. That Miller ran it and they they missed the couple blocks that and the kind of fell back into any kind of cutback to his right. And we kind of got screened often went and it was you know we we were kind of right there but. It was just one of those plays were were Miller found a crease and blockers kinda. Opposite the right time then in you know made that run through their. You know it's it's hard to look at the coverage say well you know we had -- breakdowns here like sometimes. In the jet game. This one we order -- right right there on time it looked at the pictures games. There. So you know was it was a good plan their part just one of those things where. We were there but we just you know weren't able can often make the point. You know on our return it was on Els returns could -- true though he Kaman. And it kick out -- Gary Guyton. Akins. Sammy mores. And l.'s house as him almost -- four out of pocket -- pitcher throw. Way to catch what. Els whose critical holes they had him. I think that is very cleanly blocked played just it's one of those -- not even once the season plays where it is. Just -- draw it perfectly there have been involved won back to back no I was thinking about that -- game usual SC kickoff return tendency. Yeah -- answered their long term would return in -- momentum shift that'll that there was meant when he 1000. And he could start it is Tennessee in Portland as come into an. Answer that echo -- knows knows --"

" When the when the weather when the weather's. Feels kind of crap like I was -- feel. In have been a bit and back like actors move forward it's so hot that changed direction and get a good you know if he makes a little bit of red -- you're going down I mean if you think your benefits. The often to play a much more the Toronto's -- to -- it was hard to make moves -- cut."

" Right I think it's I think it's exactly the way you described -- I think defensively you want to play in front of the runner and make him cut. And I think offensively you want to try to. Stem the defender so that he asked the cut -- you can keep going straight ahead it's really leverage game. That the guy who has to make the sharp cut it's probably and one is going to fall on the guys who doesn't have to make the sharp cut you know has the advantage and there were some plays defensively where we we I think we should've broken down and should the state square on the all. And made the runner avoid since that a you know going at the runner on miles an hour and then he makes one little wiggle and we can't stop the run and I am so. You know we've just got to do better job breaking down in that situation and and and let him cut instead of --"

" Good chance to see oh the Jets were. It will win yesterday and it was. Just -- it. Did you get musical I got -- The -- hypothetical. I. I. Hell I several six Jessica it's time. -- I shall Buffalo's mornings it was a pleasant. Well sure there that tortures of grown to a -- that it -- on the edges of the pitchforks and torches Florida. Getting back to give and after Ellis return and any -- for a touchdown with an believers back that waitress and -- and then and then -- went down. -- most of -- coming back but -- the will be back up off the score wasn't soil and would be real comeback plays like."

" I don't know I think kind of as the timing issue their -- time he went and got a checked -- and all that came back down. I I don't I don't know -- it never really came to that but you know hopefully both those guys so. -- dole will bounce back we'll see how it goes you know we just long trip just got back and and you know see where -- I don't Wednesday."

" Any practice. I do. We're trying to get back to -- root for because of the of the long week with. If -- what we've kind of a cut back. But the last maybe three weeks Steve you know at this point in the season we've run a lot of plays we've. You know we've -- practice field onslaught the same guys in the same thing and and he can get to the point where sometimes less is more you know few feet US plays. Good quality tempo in and not try to you know once the number he did that it's -- October. So we've been doing that I think -- but it -- remainder of the season he has -- have a whole -- defense every week. Defensive play is twelfth but that's the same thing if you you know you go out there and and -- it real art is probably some guys definitely -- practice so. That the trade office -- get everybody out there if you can control tempo a little more walks through junior and -- receiver to have missed a lot of those guys that are private help this one thing and -- Rosie Jeter but. You know I just think overall this time a year for bodies and -- got some bumps and bruises and and you know or fight through like everybody else's but you know I -- our players showed a lot of toughness and resiliency. In. You know bouncing back from the Pittsburgh game make -- long trip out to Seattle in after on the coast you know playing -- in the Oakland game get off to a good start there. And not take care of business out there on those two road games than in how we come back it's two games -- out of our warfare and first came back. Yeah I think I hung in -- you know greens good offensive tackle on the play keep dialed him well. But that was you know their favor fiscal offensive line has backs run hard that the farmers though than bush team matter he knows Basel ordered equality so. We our hands full but you know we have. Arizona coming in they have receivers that look like tight ends. The other the other day they're athletic they're very talented. You know I think Warner certainly. The great shows that the MVP trophy -- this year in the league for what. What he's done -- is but it's a tremendous numbers and and those receivers -- are very dangerous. That's good backs that. You know can run the ball even though they don't and off -- frequency running team they get the Altamont pass -- games well. So they're very dangerous with you know high tower and and Eric tendon in chains and those -- so. They're very explosive offensive football team that can score -- from anywhere on the field a lot of different guys but they clinched their division last week in. We surprised -- scored a -- Israelis have been home by Minnesota yesterday. You know I didn't see I haven't seen any game yet but that sounds a little bit like our. Our game with Oakland you know Sunday they fumbled early and Minnesota at the ball in good field position and they. Threw interceptions that -- in knocking on the door again outs 21 off. So. You know it's on opening along pass it along in Minnesota along pass and that it was two turnovers and converted those isn't and scores so. You know they got on top early and we know Minnesota's pass first team and and can play off my head against the running game and can run double on their terms so. You know Minnesota's got a team that when they get ahead it really that really helps a way that they play. You have watched them Arizona few times you're there they're very difficult team to figure out it is time to it looks spectacular and then other times the apt to be self destruct. All they've they've been -- with some turnovers. And you know defensively they've. You know they've got some fast players -- very skilled players but they've. You know that they've always -- to level they would like to plan but you know offensively. When I haven't turned the ball over. You know they can move it up and down the field and in the effort in the red area. And score as much as anybody so you know I think the keys. Is as usual not given up big plays and make him Burnitz but you know also. -- champion will that be disruptive on the fence and get the ball and get turnovers and -- stop them we'll put our offense good field position with victor was -- differences of -- on blitzing -- you got it out they pressure quite a bit they're they're fast they're you know little bit of an undersized. And they liked pressure and political Marty Meehan you know couple good quarters out there Wilson's very physical safety good blitzer and a very good tackler or gotten secondaries so. You know they you gotta be careful I mean they they they turn all of themselves you know strip sacks and and nine interceptions and tipped balls and things like that so -- disrupted decency. You know got to take care of the football or you know -- points as the record deceptive because there in the AFC west. Well I think they've shown they can score on anybody and and I think the fence -- weekend when they can when they can be disruptive and turned the ball over you know -- there that the fans and they. Have they do that than you know they give up some points there. Overall I think there you know -- solid football team and you know one that you know we have a lot of respect for him and their ability to score points and control on offenses. And makes bird."

" The big play team who have -- years ago we chose to play in. Carolina's Super Bowl they had more long passes and Carolina and Indianapolis to surprise a lot of people. When you look at Arizona rethink their long ball team they're they've run along on the stuff."

" You know both they kind of the kind of take with the defense issues of credit if you want to place off that'll. You know they'll hit nine out of ten underneath the fixture at Wimbledon. And preach that and those guys and they break a lot of tackles and and use the -- area tendon. And -- target the ball and on screens at check -- stuff like that and so if you want to place solved they'll give those guys all went on with -- and their party at them the same time if you want to blitz them and and trying to you know. Leave the part of the field vacant. They'll toss it down their -- a lot of long plays to everybody. All all catch and run plays or breaks tackles but you know Fitzgerald. And so they you know -- long one and 55 hours at the -- in history to give her while history thinker who beach patient Kurt Warner again. In this. And the Kurt Warner's probably. The odds on favorite that he's the you know -- outsiders just about it yet it was the back of the liner. It's and that's with seasons ago. So you know it's funny game. You know -- a great quarterback we have a lot of respect for him he's moderately pro bull you know he reads coverages very well but the ball on the money it's great guys to throw to. Good offense lines. You know we we know if you give him time and he's a good receivers which he does he's tough as his game change at all when you saw him obviously -- back then when you're your own youthful and and everything I mean obviously you know and you know I don't like it looks at a similar Peter really does know -- or receivers ought to spread formations. In the shotgun -- line you know -- just catches the ball and and bars that somebody you know it's like always but he. So. You know in the Minnesota game as humans through some passes. I mean -- seven times in a lot of passes and -- of the victorious eskimos."

" We vote we wrecked our tiny brains with a full play offs and the regular -- I bring yourself who -- who bruised right along time ago. How do you keep your players from -- or your vote. That and focusing on what they -- to them."

" Well I don't know that. You know any control what's in anybody else's mind that I think what's most important for us is just what we do and there's really anything we can do about any other game rated -- you know what our team -- how we prepare and we plan on Sunday. Against terrorism this week Oakland's over and worth up awful and actually so. We just hit that I think you know our guys have been through a -- a lot of players on this team in the through numbers seasons around here put a lot of big games. And then on a lot of a lot of good team incident and I think that you know they'll realize that and made some of the guys that. Younger guys have met through that if that they have learned at. Earlier they've they've -- this season's gone on certain last few weeks ago. You know is nothing we can do well -- interest from the fans are all but it only can do is get ready for game -- is a plus though. Possibly because Dallas in Baltimore play on Saturday night before you guys play that if if Dallas -- when that game and you know -- is another. There's no room went consent avenue to go down of elbows and out of a -- you know were were root against all the AFC east teams were -- against all the teams that are. You know potentially playoff games so. Yeah we we definitely hope all them lose but I mean again any analyst that you're down it's on our -- what's an. If we don't we don't think about that now we won't play well enough -- don't make any difference."

" I just hope its position root for the Jets. Payment of it and wrote and I can't do that we both had a root for dallas' -- On to what I want to project anything I think all the relevant to what would you prefer just refused to play probably -- we want the three wood threw at least with who -- to play -- was afraid of and the -- your thought I'd prefer it normally go on -- payment."

" Like coach that are part time now for troubled players are clean energy action dot net coaches question of the week dot dot dot this week's question is from around Christmas which amassed -- I've heard you talk about drug Mayo ability to shed blockers and his knack for not getting caught up of bodies on the ground you have any plans to use him more and blitzing schemes. And delayed blitzes up the middle. Los -- you know -- I think really complete players do a lot of things in the recovery in blitz and play at Enron. Inside and outside the tacklers so you know he's apart -- Ahmanson and all the different areas. And you know will look to -- picture of the -- engines good football player. -- closure for the read this first ever Patriots Monday this year we thought the coach whoever chances to bigger question for us to ask the go to W yeah I don't count football god that's page. The question is -- automatically when Andy 100 dollar gift card the -- obvious the Patriot place to go to questions. -- power all season by the equally dot org. We log onto the -- dot org Fonda strong way to to a lot more than pushed that went through -- growth for the off right tackle your entry cost and alternatives ethically or. Today. What to aura though on the male subject do you have to assume more responsibility with with anything -- Well he was actually the back at the Vrabel on the commute."

" Systems in India and when Mike was out. It in the game one on Mike as a threat -- their form -- so those are those things no -- Now -- we practice -- during the week you know as. And so. -- couple days of the in practice and then in abuse them and give them authority -- ability go for rookie. No rookie know well while I'm I'm saying you know but you know he's -- curvature and they're very mature kid the smart Katie expert in the states he's. He's now top his game since they've gone here in terms of assignments and what to do and they're professional -- prepares. And always works for hours in good condition and in in you know with the news that the players think he's in the respective. You know only the that's the players that are clear on this team and he shows that he can continued in more responsibility. That your 4 continued. Once played in."

" To -- you have so freeze up and talking. Often does it I was observed -- maybe Johnson player that -- stunts and I said maybe he looks removed. His froze up from the panic -- like a young guy refused to audible and it just hit a clear he's looking of Syria though longhorns coach and beautiful throw until we would apply if -- viewership a lot of play -- retreated for the sausage race. Simply went about the forecast this weekend it's going to get there at three straight games don't have or -- a -- prediction go to like. My poem I wrote like elected -- zero here and zero Kansas City or Miami or is there anywhere in -- went. That's what -- what what I would definitely trend this year coach you probably noticed by epic west coast coming -- the teams are the west coast schemes or would one and seventy. -- that it. Those dramatic trend west coast teams come into these -- he just made that -- I don't but it is up real quick and on the west coast through and I don't make it goes the other way. Yeah yelled while sized Jets the Jets -- pretty well you know you guys are three and one and Miami's lost -- lost to Miami hasn't done all that well.
