“It’s the business that you guys are in too. We try to get as much information as we can and make the best decisions that we can for the football team.”

If you sit back & spend too much time feeling good about what you did in the past, you’re going to come up short next time

I’ll refrain from making any more comments on any ongoing people involved in the judicial process.

However bad we can make them, I make them. Any time that players complain about the quality of the footballs, I make them worse and that stops the complaining.

All sources are not equal. When you get information, you take the information, you evaluate it, and you do the best you can with it. So, there’s a variance in the quality and the amount of the information. It’s a case-by-case basis. Each one’s different. There’s no set formulas.

I told you the one change we would make in the initial start level of the football pressure, but that’s really about it.

I cannot comment on any player who has ongoing criminal charges and legal situations.

I think it’s relatively easy to play defense against a team that can only do one thing. Unfortunately, that’s not what we’re talking about here with Seattle.

I think that we’ll continue to try to look at ourselves in the mirror and see where we can do a better job, maybe where we can improve the process. But I think the fundamentals of the process will remain the same.

I’m trying to coach the team and that’s what I want to do.

Whatever success I’ve had it is because I’ve tried to understand the situation of the player. I think the coach’s duty is to avoid complicating matters.

I feel like I’ve had a strong relationship with Robert [Kraft] and his family since I was here in 1996 and I think it’s gotten stronger every year that I’ve been here with the Patriots.

This is the end of this subject for me for a long time.

I don’t think there’s anybody in this organization not focused on the 49ers…I mean Chargers.

Mental Toughness is doing the right thing for the team when it’s not the best thing for you.

I think a smart guy can learn. Some guys learn – it’s just like all of us – some guys can learn electronics, some of us can’t.

Each decision will be done on a case-by-case basis and we’ll make the decision we feel is best for the New England Patriots football team.
