Bill Belichick praised Patriots’ win amid rain that got ‘progressively worse’

After a pivotal 23-17 upset win over the Ravens, Bill Belichick praised the Patriots’ ability to make the most of a tough situation.

“First of all, it was a great win by these guys tonight,” Belichick began. “Really proud of the way the team competed coming off a short week and getting ready for a team that’s obviously not only a good football team, but a hard team to prepare for offensively, defensively and in the kicking game, they present a lot of schematic problems.”

Facing the 2019 NFL MVP in Lamar Jackson, as well as the rest of Baltimore’s run-heavy offense, Belichick noted how important preparation had been.
