FOXBOROUGH — One day after saying major scheme changes would be difficult to implement at this time of the season — you won’t be seeing the wishbone or veer — Bill Belichick expressed confidence in the Patriots’ schemes, staff, and structures.

“The system that we have in place, I feel good about, which includes the offensive staff, includes me, includes whatever the whole process is,” the coach said Tuesday morning when asked if play-calling would fall into the major category. “On defense, on offense, on special teams.”

That doesn’t mean more subtle changes can’t take place, however, as the club continually tries to accentuate its positives and exploit its opponents’ weaknesses.
