PATRIOTS QUARTERBACK CAM NEWTON

POSTGAME VIDEO CONFERENCE

November 22, 2020


Houston Texans - 27, New England Patriots - 20

Q. (No microphone.)

CN: We just got to find ways to win.

Q. JJ Watt had four batted passes in the game. Was there anything specific that was leading to those passes batted at the line of scrimmage?

CN: JJ Watt, he's an all-pro, perennial all-pro. He's a defensive Player of the Year, one of the best players in this generation. So for us, it is what it is. They get paid too. So for us to go against that, I'm not saying we fold up the tent, but at the same time, they're going to make plays just like we're going to make plays and we just can't get bent out of shape when that happens. We just got to move on and still be able to move the ball like we did show sometimes today, but it's not enough.

Q. There were a couple of moments in this game, particularly on that fourth down at the end, where Houston was able to get some free rushers in the back field on you guys. Was there anything consistent in those moments that was happening on your offensive end that led to those moments?

CN: We just have to go back and watch the film, learn from it, be better from it, and when we're put back in that situation again we'll execute better.

Q. They brought some pressure off the left side there on that one and Isaiah had just come out of the game. Did that have anything to do with any communication on that side of the line there?

CN: I wouldn't say that. They brought that pressure multiple times today. We knew that they were a repeat type of defense and if it hurt us one time, which it did, they will come back to it, and surely they did. So for us, it's just a matter of understanding situational football and position guys in situations and everyone will be firing on all cylinders. But like I said, we'll learn from it and be better from it and just have another opportunity coming up this week with a great week of practice and our next opponent.
