PATRIOTS HEAD COACH BILL BELICHICK
BB: Alright, good morning. It’s good to be back at it here. We’re back on the field today. You know, Kansas City is obviously a great program. Andy [Reid] has done a tremendous job there, as he did in Philadelphia. He’s really got a good football team, a well-balanced team. They’re good on defense. They’re good on offense. They’re good in the kicking game. You know, Andy does a good job, they’re really well coached, so we’re going to have to play well, coach well and play well in every aspect of the game.

They had a return game between [Kadarius] Toney, [Richie] James, [Mecole] Hardman, who’s out, obviously. A lot of guys that have returned, they’re a good return team. That was a big play in the Super Bowl. With Toney’s return, he was able to set up a winning touchdown, so they’re explosive there too.
