Bill Belichick Press Conference - 11/17/2010 11/17/10
Patriots head coach Bill Belichick addresses the media during his press conference at Gillette Stadium on Wednesday, November 17, 2010. BB: Back in the division again. Just like Pittsburgh.

Q: How much do you attribute the success of each the Patriots and the Colts to the systems that each team uses? Is that a big part of the success of each franchise? BB: I think it's got to be.
