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

Bill Belichick

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.

Business Decision Football Guy Team
I would say that during the course of the game, I honestly never – it probably has happened on an incomplete pass or something – but I’ve never touched a game ball. It’s not something I have any familiarity with on that.
BILL BELICHICK

Game Incomplete Something Touched
I had no knowledge of the various steps involved in the game balls and the process that happened between when they were prepared and went to the officials and went to the game. So, I’ve learned a lot about that.

Balls Games Steps
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.

Different Information Quality
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.

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

Team Trying Want
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.

Complain Complaining Ourselves Worse
Well this week’s all about Seattle, so we’ve been doing our best to prepare for the Seahawks. I’m doing that, our team’s doing that and we’ll be ready to go Sunday. That’s our focus.

I’m not really worried about the other 31 teams.
BILL BELICHICK

Really Team Worried
I obviously understand that each team has the opportunity to prepare the balls the way they want, give them to the officials and the game officials either approve or disapprove the balls. That really was the end of it for me until I learned a little bit more about this .

We do the same thing with all our players. We take a look, as I said, at their personal family life, we look at the history of what they’ve done in high school and college.

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

I was out of the country for a period of time but followed everything closely through other people in our organization and we’ve made the decisions that we felt were right for the football team and we’ll continue to do that and be as diligent as we can going forward.
