Patriots coach Bill Belichick just held a press conference with the media at Gillette Stadium. He opened with the following statement:
“OK, just following up on Monday, we have a little bit of extra time to prepare for Buffalo. It’s good that we have it. They present a lot of problems. This is an explosive team. Offensively, they have a lot of good skill players, they can score from anywhere on the field, and have done so against us. Kickoff returns. Punt returns. And a defense that can put pressure on the passer. They have some good run [defense] players, a very good tackling secondary, a very experienced secondary. With a couple of young players they’ve added, like [defensive tackle John] McCargo and [safety Donte] Whitner, and [linebacker Takeo] Spikes back, that gives them a little more juice on that side of the ball. I think this team is a strong team, I think they’re athletic. It looks like they have a new attitude and a new purpose with a new coaching staff. We’ll have to get ready for them, and that’s what we’re trying to do.”
