He said, “Anything can happen. I’ve been a 6 seed, gone all the way to the Super Bowl, and won it right here in this stadium, so anything is possible. Now that we’re in the dance, we’ve got to see what next week brings and where we’re going.”

His approach to Brady has been wildly different from Brady’s former coach, Bill Belichek. Many questioned his approach to the situation, especially given that Belichek had gotten the best of Brady by not throwing him under the bus in front of the press.
