On the chilly practice field, Josh McDaniels tucked his hands into the pockets of his new - or previously used - dark blue Patriots hoodie and smiled broadly at Bill Belichick.

Forget Tom Brady. This is about Bill Belichick and Tim Tebow, writes Peter King, who sizes up Week 15's premier matchup and offers the ten things he'll be looking for this weekend.

New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick says his early impression on new acquisition Albert Haynesworth has been good.

Chad Ochocinco's next stop is New England after an offseason in which he had a soccer tryout, rode a bull, took a spin in a race car and waited to be traded.

That wait ended on Thursday when the outspoken wide receiver was dealt to the Patriots, a team coached by Bill Belichick, who closely monitors, and tries to control, his players' public comments.

Bill Belichick is closing in on Don Shula. The New England coach Bill Belichick won The Associated Press 2010 NFL Coach of the Year award on Wednesday, the third time Belichick has earned the honor.

Talk is cheap ... unless you back it up. Mark Sanchez outplayed Tom Brady, Rex Ryan outcoached Bill Belichick and the Jets eliminated the Patriots 28-21 to reach the AFC title game.

Rex Ryan is at it again this week. He tweaked Tom Brady about his work ethic. He said his Jets' game against the Patriots "is about Bill Belichick versus Rex Ryan ...

There's no question, it's personal." This came a week after Ryan said it was personal between him and Peyton Manning.

If the Jets make the Super Bowl, Ryan might just say it is personal between him and Vince Lombardi.

Patriots coach Bill Belichick is defending Randy Moss against comments that the wide receiver doesn't go all out on the field.

Patriots linebacker Adalius Thomas is surprised he was sent home by coach Bill Belichick for being late to a team meeting.

Thomas was one of four players who were sent home for tardiness on Wednesday. He said Thursday that he was surprised because he had called ahead to say he might be late as players are instructed to do.
