Adelaide coach Don Pyke says self-satisfaction doesn't lead to progess.
Even the notoriously guarded Crows coach is impressed by what he's seeing from his AFL pacesetters.
But he's cautioning against reading too much into his free-scoring side's six consecutive wins to start the season.
"We are happy with where we're sitting at the moment," Pyke said after trouncing Richmond by 76 points on Sunday.
"But we know there is a long way to go. And we know there is areas individually and collectively we have to get better at."
The Crows are the sole unbeaten side in the league and have kicked 100 or more points in every win.
And Pyke said it was simply a product of the players developing a deep trust in themselves, and their daring style of play.
"They understand it. They get it," he said.
"It's a relationship between the guys and what they actually are after.
"And they are building that and building that belief and trust in each other and how we play - that (performance) is what you see as a result."
The Crows meet North Melbourne in Hobart next weekend ahead of matches against Melbourne, Brisbane and Fremantle.
"The contribution across the group is really even," Pyke said.
"And they are getting the reward for that because they are not relying on individuals, they are relying on each other."
