Coaching Matters
While Pete was into pumping his fists and hooting and hollering on the sideline, the real coach was on his sideline huddling with his defense, doing what the job title describes - coaching! And he even got involved talking with Brady and McDaniels on the sideline when he thought it was necessary, something he rarely does with the offense.
That's why in the end a rookie, undrafted cornerback was prepared to read what he saw and make a great play while on the other side the Seahawks had to burn timeouts because they weren't ready with another play - even after an incompletion.
Remember, Pete: it's called coaching and attention to detail, not cheerleading. That's why a team like the Patriots wins against basically the same team that overwhelmed the Broncos last year with poor, clueless John Fox on the sideline.
Simple stuff: just do your job and nobody does his better than Belichick.
