The Bengals least penalized team but the same pundit says that doesn’t mean much. Then good coaches shouldn’t have to win close games LOL then that’s totally refuted. Bengals had a very respectable margin of victory. It’s like a political party in power claiming it’s the other party.

It depends

The stats and analytics nerds will argue team A had 10 penalties in given game and still beat Team B that only had 6. Or take it out to the whole season. And I don't doubt it's true. But it's just not that simple and they don't seem to understand that.

When did the penalties come ? What was the game situation ? A personal foul isn't the same as a false start. A false start on 3rd and 2 making it 3rd and 7 killing a drive late in the game is a lot worse than on the 1st snap of the game. You could go on and on. 

And I 100% feel ZT's culture change had an impact on our lowered penalties and I'll take less penalties 10 X out of 10.
