Belichick also feels that success is built each year, and the Raiders are a team that proves his point. His respect for the talent Oakland has been able to accumulate is evident in his remarks. I think when you look at every player on the Raiders roster, competitively, in other words relative to the average at that position through the league, the guy is either going to be bigger or faster or both than the average at that position on a league-wide basis, including the kicker, ... It's pretty much every single position.

A lot of guys youre looking at in college havent played on their feet and on first and second down, thats probably where they would be playing for us. Were looking at projecting guys who were down, to projecting them up to playing on their feet and thats definitely a conversion.

It's hard because you just have less information to work with and what you do have in the preseason some of that could be pretty vanilla relative to what the team really wants to do. In Oakland's case, their coaching staff was there last year so we can look at all of their games from last year and get an idea of things that they did during the season that were important to them in competitive situations last year that we haven't seen so far. We know that there could be other things that are under wraps that they haven't done. We just have to be ready to make some adjustments during the game. I think that's the way it always is. There's no question that this is the hardest game.

He's looked OK. He's done what we've asked him to do. I don't think that he's had any problem with it. When will we make the decision if he'll play When we're sure that the decision that we're making is . . . that we're not going to have to double back on it. That we're sure it's going to be the right decision for that point in time.
