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.

More quotes by Bill Belichick
My overall knowledge of football specifications, the overall process that happens on game day with the footballs is very limited. 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
There is an old saying about the strength of the wolf is the pack, and I think there is a lot of truth to that. On a football team, it’s not the strength of the individual players, but it is the strength of the unit and how they all function together.
Bill Belichick
We never use the condition of the footballs as an excuse. We play with whatever or kick with whatever we have to use and that's the way it is.
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.
Bill Belichick
You get the job done or you don't.
Bill Belichick
I'm a football coach. I'm not a doctor ... They don't call plays, I don't do surgeries. We have a great deal here.
Bill Belichick
When you get wet, it usually means something good.
Bill Belichick
That has never been a priority for me and I want the players to deal with a harder situation in practice than they'll ever have to deal with in the game. Maybe that's part of our ball security philosophy.
Bill Belichick
To me the footballs are approved by the league and game officials pregame and we play with what's out there. That's the only way that I have ever thought about that.
Bill Belichick
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.
Bill Belichick
Tom's [Brady] personal preferences on his footballs are something he can take about in much better detail and information than I could possibly provide.
Bill Belichick
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.
Bill Belichick
I cannot comment on any player who has ongoing criminal charges and legal situations.
Bill Belichick
I am who I am. In the end, I feel that what I'm accountable for is doing a good job as a football coach.
Bill Belichick
I told you the one change we would make in the initial start level of the football pressure, but that's really about it.
Bill Belichick
We've been cooperative with the NFL investigation. We'll continue to do so and we will turn all our attention and focus on to the Seattle Seahawks, a very well coached, talented, tough, competitive football team.
Bill Belichick
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 hasn't even been competitive. That's the first thing we're going to have to do is just find a way to stay competitive because these (first two games) have been over by halftime. We saw that last year too (on Halloween). It was 21-3 (Steelers) at the end of the first quarter.
Bill Belichick
I'm sure that any current or past player of mine would tell you that the balls we practice with are as bad as they can be: wet, sticky, cold, slippery. 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.
Bill Belichick
Not all teams use the same tests and certainly those tests are far from being 100 percent as well. It's part of the process.
