Nigel Pearson is keen to stay grounded after his exciting Bristol City side moved up to third but admitted the players are reaping the rewards for showing belief in themselves.
The 3-2 scoreline flattered Blackburn with the Robins dominant in all areas of the field as Tommy Conway's first-half header and Nahki Wells' double stretched City's unbeaten record to eight in all competitions.
In truth, the Robins should have scored more with Wells and Andi Weimann guilty of missing chances but the visitors looked confident in possession and dangerous on the counter-attacking, striking fear into the Blackburn Rovers backline when they moved the ball forward at pace.
