A trip to movies provides Patriots with strong message and team bonding

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- New England Patriots players were expecting their work day to continue early Sunday evening when Bill Belichick surprised most of them with an audible.

“He just kind of walked up to us, kind of in the old Bill Belichick way with not too much of an expression, and said, ‘We’re going to get some film in, but not football. We’re going to walk over to Patriot Place and watch a movie,'" relayed second-year defensive tackle

The movie, "Deepwater Horizon," is scheduled to be released Sept. 30 and stars Mark Wahlberg, who was at the theater next to Gillette Stadium to greet players.
