Belichick was trying to go for the record of winning a game with the least passing attempts in a single game in the Super Bowl era (1966 - Present.)
The record is 2 passing attempts in a single game, by Joe Ferguson of the Bills in a win over the Jets in September of 1974.

They missed the record by 1, as Mac Jones wound up throwing 3 passes tonight.

BB, more than any other Coach ever, radically changes schemes, both offensive and defensive schemes by the team he's facing, weather conditions, injuries (his and theirs) and possibly even by which refs are doing the game. He looks at everything and until the game begins, you have no idea what you'll be facing. He rarely misses an opportunity to take advantage of any perceived facet of the game.
