Belichick can always be counted on to convey succinct, pithy messages, whether to his team or the media, and that was the case following Sunday’s stunning 34-33 NFL loss against the Dolphins.
When asked what he told his players after Miami’s last-second lateral play beat New England, Pats head coach Belichick told Boston’s WEEI: “It’s the National Football League. No one died.
“We’ve got a big game this week against Pittsburgh. We’ve got a two-game lead in the division. There’s a lot of football left in the season. We’ll see how it goes.”
Belichick, meanwhile, shouldered responsibility for New England’s loss against Miami after the Patriots (9-4) had taken a 33-28 lead with 16 seconds remaining.
“It starts with me. We have to play better situational football. We’ll work to try to achieve that,” Belichick said.
