Penalties
Sorry if someone has already adressed this, but I didn't see it.
It just struck me, that we have been playing some near penalty free football the last couple of games. DV coached teams always had problems with that, I wonder why that is? That to me is a telling example of lack of dicipline. Even with our high potent offense a year ago, many drives got stalled because of holding, or false starts. I know we had a couple yesterday, but it seems as if we have improved in that area a lot. |

The shocking thing to me is the lack of holding penalties. We've had a few of them, but no where near as many as I expected with this OLine.

Maybe that is how Big Willie and Welroid kept Green from getting his clock cleaned. I would rather have the hold than my QB out for 6 weeks!
But hey ..... Thats just me. All in All I would have to admit in the Grand Picture we are playing with less penalties than prior years. .

Are you sure about that? I thought DV teams were always ranked pretty high as far as least penalized teams.

2004 - 22nd 2005 - 18th 2006 - 4th* (so far) *I corrected this for penalties per game, since the NFL's stats site only lists total penalties. We're 3rd by total penalties, but we've played one less game than some teams. |

DV could rattle off how a team that gets penalties is 32% less likely to win on the road at night when it gets the most penalties, but he couldn't do a DAMN thing to stop the team from making them. Amazing. The more and more I am looking at this, the more and more it is apparent that DV was soft. |

I have read or heard on the radio(Bill Maas perhaps) that the refs around the league pretty much, couldn't stand DV's coaches. They thought they were a bunch of arrogant jerks

We do get flagged less with herm, and with DV we got flagged a hell of a lot less than we did with Gun and especially Marty. I think the Gleam he spoke of was the yellow laundry all over the field.
