Intro:

New England Patriots and Denver Broncos players and coaches spoke on Wednesday (15th January) ahead of their AFC Championship game on Sunday (19th January).

Script:

SOUNDBITE: (English) Bill Belichick, New England Patriots, head coach: "Well I mean we prepare for the entire Denver Broncos football team. Obviously (Peyton) Manning is a great quarterback, there's no question about that. But the Broncos are a good football team and they're good on defence, they're good on the kicking game, they've got a good running game, they've got a lot of good receivers, a lot of good offensive linemen. We've got to prepare for the entire team. And Peyton is certainly a key guy in it - the offence runs through him, but we've got to do a good job on everybody. He's as good we're going to face. As good as we have faced. So it will be a big challenge for us. I think our defensive football team realises that. We'll be out there Sunday doing our best at defending not only him, but the other ten guys that are out there with him. And they're all pretty good too. Big challenge and we're looking forward to it."
