« Steelers 33, Patriots 10: Transcript of Bill Belichick's press conference |

| Football Today -- Turns out we shouldn't trade Brady after all, and the latest on Plaxico »
Bill Belichick just wrapped up his press conference for today, and began by reiterating that New England missed a lot of opportunities against Pittsburgh yesterday, adding that after looking at the film there were even more than he had first believed. One of the Patriots' strengths under Belichick has been the ability to move on from big games -- whether they were big wins or big losses -- and the coach was asked if he feels this team, as currently constructed, with key veterans on injured reserve or no longer with the team, has the personnel to do that. "Yeah, I'm confident in this team," he said. "Based on the way this team has been all year." Belichick also touched on Matthew Slater's fumble, as the rookie took his muffed kickoff very hard and blamed himself for the loss, saying "we all make mistakes, in every game. You learn from them and move on. Everyone made mistakes in that game." He added that those sentiments would go for corner Deltha O'Neal as well, who was targeted by Pittsburgh. The locker room will be open in a couple of hours and hopefully we'll be able to get more reaction from the players as they close the book on this loss and move on to Seattle.
