Penalties: One Sign of Great Improvement

[brgRC90]

Penalties are about coaching and discipline more clearly than probably any other aspect of the team. I see a pretty sharp turn around from many years of sloppy play and ranks mostly in the 80s, 90s and 100s.

agreed. For the most part coaching is there. We just need high FB IQ talent.

We need that on this board too. Its already unbearable.

And just a little less negativity. Yeah, it's difficult when the team is losing. But I still think that if the offense can get their act together with a different QB, we can win 1 or 2 games down the stretch, maybe even 3. Now, watch me get called out as crazy or living in a fantasy land--whatever. I'll just keep drinking my half full glass of water.
