What are the New England Patriots' players and coaches talking about ahead of Sunday's Week 5 matchup against the Detroit Lions in Foxborough? Let's find out:
1. Patriots head coach Bill Belichick was really complimentary of the Lions rushing attack when speaking to the New England media Wednesday morning. The Lions currently rank sixth in rushing (164.0). Tackling will be a big point of emphasis this week for the Patriots' defense. Belichick talked about Lions running backs doing a good job of consistently getting more yards than they should on plays because of broken tackles and their elusiveness.
