It's interesting heading into week 8 we are one of the least penalized teams in the league. Penalties tend to be a function of coaching and I think it's another feather in Taylor's cap in terms of him preparing the team for games each week.

Side Note:  before anyone gets excited about JAX they have only played 6 games compared to 7 for everyone else on that list.

Another great stat, Taylor and the coaches have done great so far this year in this area. This team is disciplined for once and 
playing smart on top of everything else. There isn't really one position group that has been bad in this area, not even the OL
which has been a problem for us for years in the penalty department. Killed the Ravens Sunday with their false starts and the 
holding calls.
