When speaking to the media in his postgame press conference Sunday afternoon, Patriots head coach Bill Belichick noted that when the Jaguars unsuccessfully attempted a fake punt that the Patriots recovered during the third quarter, the team actually failed to do so in practice earlier in the week.
According to Belichick, the Patriots ran a nearly identical play and the special teams unit failed to stop it.
“It was actually a play that we ran in practice and James White got us on it, and we made some corrections on that in practice and then were able to carry those over into the game,” Belichick said.
