The New England Patriots beat the Houston Texans and players earned this win. It was a big win for rookie quarterback Mac Jones and his teammates. Of course, players had some struggles early in the game. They were trailing the Texans throughout the entire game. That’s when Coach B stepped in and taught everyone a lesson. We have this mic’d-up video from head coach Bill Belichick and the speech he delivered during the first half. Patriots players needed to hear this and elevate their game. That’s exactly what happened.

“This game is about down and distance,” Belichick told Patriots players. “Personnel’s gonna change on every play, OK? Get back on track — that’s what this game is.”

Coach Belichick did his best to motivate the defense and we can definitely agree that the offense did an incredible job. Patriots center David Andrews praised offensive players and delivered great message for the rookie quarterback. Jones did a good job in the game and helped his team overcome a huge deficit. The first-rounder made some mistakes but he was amazing and the Patriots benefited from his game. Coach Belichick liked it, too. Jones worked really hard to get this spot on Belichick’s roster and he gave the team a few good reasons to keep him around in the upcoming season.

The Patriots head coach delivered another motivational speech in the locker room. He praised the offense saying they “needed 60 good minutes of football, and got 30.” Belichick liked the blocked punt and the way his team shut down the Texans in the third quarter.

Patriots special teams captain Matthew Slater had great words for Jones and veteran kicker Nick Folk. The latter delivered a 21-yard game-winner in the final minute of the game.
