Bill Belichick joined WEEI’s “The Greg Hill Show” on Monday morning following the Patriots’ bye week.
“It went by pretty quickly,” Belichick said of the bye week resting period. “It [was] kind of a short bye week here with the Monday night game, and then playing on Saturday, but good to get a couple days to rest.”
Asked later in the interview if he prefers the NFL’s new 17-game schedule to the old 16-game version, the Patriots coach had a straightforward response.
“Yeah, I don’t think it really matters what I think,” he said.
