SC: Bill Belichick has said that you’re one of the best players he’s ever coached. What is it about his approach and his system that produces such consistently excellent results, even through serious roster changes?

RH: I think the first thing you have to look at is his ability to know players. You don’t hit home runs on every player, but you’ve seen his ability to get guys who are considered castoffs, whether they’ve had injury issues or problems off the field. I came in injured from San Diego, he gave me a chance, and I ended up winning back-to-back Super Bowls. Look at a guy like Corey Dillon, who everyone thought was a troublemaker. He came in, was a model citizen, and helped us win a Super Bowl. Randy Moss(notes) came in and was a great teammate of mine; never caused any problems and had a monster year in 2007.
So, these are the types of moves [Belichick] makes, and this is why he’s so special. He’s also not afraid to get rid of guys and make the bold changes, like he made with Randy Moss and Drew Bledsoe. You have to be able to make bold moves, and he’s not afraid to do that.
