Chat: Chat with Tedy Bruschi – SportsNation – ESPN Boston

Jeremy (Boston) Hey Tedy. What was the locker room at halftime like in situations like yesterday when the team had a poor first half? Would Belichick and the coaching staff be all fire and brimstone, or would it be a more subdued atmosphere focusing on X’s O’s by position group?

Tedy (12:24 PM) Nine times out of 10, it was mostly subdued, focusing on adjustments and corrections. If anyone was going to go off the handle, it was going to be assistant coaches. Coach Belichick would mostly focus on the adjustments that needed to be made. Don’t get me wrong, I’ve seen him go off the handle too.

The play of the quarter was a strip sack by top draft choice Chandler Jones, who turned the corner on Titans left tackle Michael Roos. The loose football was scooped by fellow first-round pick Dont’a Hightower, who returned it for a score. Not to be overlooked, second-round pick Tavon Wilson forced the first turnover of the season for the Patriots, with an interception of Jake Locker in the end zone. Wilson made the play off of a tip by cornerback Kyle Arrington, a classic example of executing the “tip-drill.” Impressive early returns from the Patriots’ rookies.
