I heard you said Randy Moss is the smartest receiver you've been around. How is his intelligence manifested on the field?
You can play him wherever you want to play him. He can play X, he can play Z, he can play F, whatever you want him to do. You'll see him pretty much everywhere. That is pretty unusual. We've had a few guys who could mentally do it but not necessarily physically do it. We've had some guys who could physically do it but maybe couldn't do it mentally. Randy is really smart in terms of the passing game. He understands DB techniques, how to beat them, how to adjust the timing of his routes, how to adjust his routes to get open, coverages, how to set those up. He understands that in double coverage, depending on what route you have on, there is only one guy covering you—so that's the guy you have to attack and beat. Hand placement when ball is in the air, ball skills—it comes so naturally to him. He knows how to use the whole field, the sideline, the end line.

Re: Q & A WITH BILL BELICHICK/Chicago Tribune article
It amazes me how stupid reporters are. The guy answers football questions. He doesn't answer specific strategies for specific games. If reporters were smart, they'd stick to what he'll answer, because his knowledge is encyclopedic. Ask him historic questions. Ask him context questions. Ask him tactic and technique questions. He answers them all. His answers are, seriously, amazing. I suspect, if one were to compile answers like this into a book, one would have one of the best football coaching books ever.
I always notice this when i watch all access as well. When you stick to the things that won't hurt his chances of winning, his answers are incredibly layered and deep and interesting. They reveal so much about the game of football that I miss because i'm no football guru. I learn when i listen.
Re: Q & A WITH BILL BELICHICK/Chicago Tribune article
This is what I found to be the most remarkable part of the piece:
______________-
"He did not, however, wish to discuss the accusations that he has run up scores.
At least not for the record."
_______________
At least not for the record. He does leave it open that BB actually confided to him personally his feelings about Spygate.
Pompei, I imagine has a a close connection to BB that goes back many years.

Great point, Rod. Ask him about any player on the field or upcoming opponent and BB will go to great lengths about all of their strengths. Ask him about an opposing players comments, a game other than the next one on the schedule or some fabricated media talking point and that's what the reporter will get in return. Yet some insist on trying and wasting their question for an answer BB will not give.

Based on his Moss comments, if anyone thinks BB lets RM get away....think again. I say he finishes his career here and goes out with about three SB rings.
