Eheh. I checked Colts home games so far this year at Lucas Oil Stadium.... They have played three home games (Atlanta, Oakland, Houston). The 1st downs from penalty count =
Colts 16, opponents 2
"Normal" numbers on 1st downs from penalty per game are 0, 1, 2..... The Colts are averaging over 5 per game at Lucas.
In their defense, they are, along with the Carolina Panthers, the two least penalized teams in the league. A sign of good coaching, I'd say.
Our Texans are bottom 7 in penalties (57) and penalty yardage (475). We have good company with Cowboys, Vikings, Browns, Jags, Chiefs, Falcons as the most penalized teams in the league....
