Here’s what Bill Belichick said to Patriots in the locker room after Week 3 win

The New England Patriots are heading into Week 4 with a 2-1 record after defeating the Las Vegas Raiders 36-20 in Week 3.

New England had 250 rushing yards and recovered three fumbles in the game — one turned into a touchdown. Cam Newton didn’t have the most impressive game, but he commanded the offense and guided them to success.

Bill Belichick was happy with the victory and had some positive words to say after the game.

“That’s more of the way we need to play and want to play,” Belichick said. “Good job on the offensive line — some changes there. The backs did a hell of job running the ball. They could not tackle you guys. 250 yards on the ground. Receivers blocking, backs running, line blocking on the outside — did a lot of good things there.

“Defensively, turned the ball over. Scored on defense. Complementary football — score, kickoff, tackle them inside the 10, get a block in the back penalty, strip sack for a touchdown. That’s what I’m talking about with complementary football. All three units working together.

“That was a good week. We need another good week. We prepare to go to Kansas City. We’ll need our best games. We haven’t had it yet. We need it. It’s time to come through.”

The Patriots will face the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 4.
