Shoes would be proud.
Keep those shoes tied boys..from the signs of discipline we saw last week from the leadership council getting Matthews out of trouble, to playing the game fair and square, these young dolphins are coming up the right way..
Mike Wallace likey his new team..dude was smilin all game, it's photographed in my head..
I believe the question posed last week by some media members was a challenge for Joe Philbin and whether he could right the ship in the locker room..he's got his team playing hard, smart football.

0 penalties. 2-0. 2-0 on the road. Winning with pressure or coverage. Winning with 2 & 3 receiver OR winning with our 1 receiver and TE.
I don't want to hear anyone else question Philbins hold over the team.Colorado Dolfan likes this. -

This speaks to me of a HC who instills discipline and pays attention to every minute detail of winning a football game. I think we've got ourselves a HC folks!

I am sorry...but these games are so much more enjoyable when they let them play a bit. Nothing slows these games down more than flag happy crews who love face time on TV and take each penalty as an excuse to huddle up and take forever to make a decision. You could literally call a penalty on every play, it does not mean that you should

They were letting them play. I thought we got away with one with R Jones.
But how in the hell does a ref come out from under that hood, walk out on the field, not make a decision on a call and pick up the football and randomly place it back.
That was garbage. I'd love to know that rule.thisperishedmin and bakedmatt like this. -

Philbin really seems to have a firm grip on the team. They play hard, they're playing more disciplined and there are a lot of guys on the team displaying leadership. That all starts with Philbin.
I wonder how much of this has to do with the new practice schedule. The team seemed much more focused and fresh in the second half.Fin D likes this. -

No holding penalties? In the game? Including special teams? I thought I distinctly recall the Colts getting at least one, that called back a punt return?
If the final outcome had been different in the closing minutes, as Luck was driving down the field, I doubt I would be as accepting of this officiating leniency, given what I saw occur to our defenders, as they struggled toward Luck, with their linemen in tow.
