— Julian Edelman (@Edelman11) October 6, 2019QUOTE OF THE DAY: "We certainly could coach it better, we could play it better. They did, they bounced right back and kind of had a high level of determination to execute better and like I said, we fixed a couple of things. The Redskins used a lot of 10 personnel — a lot of four receivers. They were down a tight end so we anticipated some of that, but not as much as they did." -- Bill Belichick, on Patriots defense bouncing back after a tough start
