Report: Pats taped Rams' Super Bowl walkthrough
  1. We wanted to take and destroy that information ... They may have collected it within the rules, but we couldn't determine that. So we felt that it should be destroyed.

  2. If I had a reason to want to go public, or tell a story, I could have done it before it even broke ... I could have said everything rather than having [Jets head coach Eric] Mangini be the one to bring it out.

  3. The coaches have no knowledge of it

  4. It's a league matter ... I don't know anything about it.

  5. I am more than willing to speak with the senator. There are very good explanations why the tapes were destroyed by our staff -- there was no purpose for them.

  6. If they're doing a thorough investigation -- they didn't contact me ... So draw your own conclusions. Maybe they felt they didn't need to. Maybe the league feels they got satisfactory answers from everything the Patriots sent them.
