Bill Belichick has said that the New England Patriots treat every game as a one-week season.
The AFC East side will look to continue their unbeaten start to the season against the Atlanta Falcons tomorrow.
The head coach told reporters: "We look at every week as pretty much a one-week season. We do what we can do that week to try to win. That's what we try to do.
"I mean, sometimes there's a point, like later on in the season, where things change a little bit, but we're certainly not there yet.
"We're going to try to go down there and play well against Atlanta. We'll try to go out there and play well next week."
The Patriots have not won the first four games of the the season since 2007.
