Check the seahawks penalties and get back to me.I'm almost sure penalties are all the coaches fault. The good teams in this league don't get in their own way. They play smart, penalty free football and don't turn it over. Not exciting; they're not the Saints or Andrew Luck's Colts. They're the Patriots and the Seahawks. They win like that because they play smart and eventually other teams make mistakes against them. Thats all coaching. Belicheck won't draft dumb players. He'll draft the smart guy he can develop and knows will learn not to commit stupid penalties. We draft the physical specimen stud with an insane ceiling. He still makes dumb ass penalties every game. And that's even before you talk about the 'culture' and trend setting. Fisher has a physical, tough, nasty, bully attitude instilled in these guys. That's great. Love it. But it doesn't work if they're not dumb enough to use it to bait penalties out of the other guys and get away with it themselves.
Coaching is the most important facet of this game. Talent levels are similar.
The difference is good teams overcome
