[viman96]

Sure hope they keep this up. The last couple of year all the flags against Dallas drove me nuts.

5 against the Giants
5 against the Chiefs
6 against the Rams

2012 (only checked the first 5 games)

13 against the Giants
5 against the Seahawks
13 against the Bucs
2 against the Bears

i noticed the same dang on thing. NFL conspiracy. Refs controlling the flow of the games.

It's the offensive penalties that are down that matter.

I feel like in the past they have had to work so hard b/c of poor fundamentals to not commit penalties that it caused some overthinking and that sort of thing. Now, not committing penalties is, I think, less of a burden and more second nature, so they can be more consistent with not committing them.

It's making a huge difference. Not having several false starts per game forcing you into harder and harder first down conversions makes a big difference.

now if we can get the 3rd down conversion rate up we should be able to really do something on offense
