Those things, along with 'less penalized teams are more successful' are all things that have been studied and found to not be true on an overall scale.
Three of the top four most penalized teams made the playoffs. The fourth (Chargers) just missed the playoffs. The Bills and Chiefs were both in the top 8 most penalized teams.
Colts, WFT, Broncos, Giants and Falcons were in the bottom 8 (least penalized) and didn't make the playoffs.
You can make the argument that the Bengals and Rams were in the bottom 4 of most penalized teams and played in the SB. You can make claims in any set of statistics that are factually correct, but in a larger study, they don't make a significant correlation.
The studies that have been done on penalties and winning show that, overall, there is no correlation.
Outliers can be found in anything.
It’s an element of a successful offensive football plain and simple.
Romo “ so impressed with Zac ...1 of the best in the NFL… they are just fundamentally sound. Taylor the best winning % in the Playoffs of current coaches. Joe Burrow” Zac is the best head coach in the NFL & that gives me a lot of confidence." Taylor led the Bengals to their first playoff win since 1990, ending the longest active drought in the four major North American sports, en and appeared in Super Bowl LVI, the first since 1988.
