“Congratulations men, congratulations,” Belichick began. “This is everything we talked about – competing on the road, against another good football team, at this time of year. Guys just kept battling, kept competing. They certainly made their plays – we made a few more. You guys did a great job and that’s what it’s gonna be like. The next game’s gonna be tougher than this one. But that’s the way it’s supposed to be when you’re going all the way through.
“Enjoy this one. You earned it, you deserve it. Give these guys credit now, they’re a good football team. Obviously so are the Rams. You guys played your asses off. You deserve to be champions.”
