JimBob2232 Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 #Werenumber1 Did some digging. According to the NFL.com, here are the records for team penalties in a season Most Penalties: 158 (1998 Chiefs) - 9.9 penalties per game Most Penalty Yards: 1,304 yards (1998 Chiefs) - 81.5 yards/game Current Bills Stats 124 Penalties (9.5/game) 1,086 yards (83.5/game) So if the bills only need 11.3 penalties per game to break the all time most penalized team. And they only need 218 penalty yards (72.7/game) to break the all time yardage penalty. We've acheved 70+ yards penalized 8 times this season. Wow.

PearlHowardman Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 I didn't realize they were in such bad company in the first place. No one on the Buffalo Bills sidelines knows how to coach a NFL team on game day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimBob2232 Posted December 14, 2015 Author Share Posted December 14, 2015 Okay...so the NFL website is bunk. It hasn't been updated since 2007! Why would you need updated numbers?! http://www.nfl.com/history/randf/records/team/penalties Wikipedia says the seahawks hold the record for penalty yards 1,415 in 2013, and the Raiders had 163 penalties in 2011. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_National_Football_League_records_%28team%29#Penalties Still....there is a chance!

Prickly Pete Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Kelly the Dog? GreggyT (Deranged Rhino)?...I bickered with a few people here early in the season about this. I have to believe that penalties have cost them at least a couple games this season. Rex Ryan creates a loose atmosphere wherever he goes, and should not be a head coach. They need to bring in some assistants that are detail oriented ball busters to make up for the laxity of Rex Ryan, because they aren't going to fire Ryan.

Fixxxer Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 and the repeated offenders are the best players on the team. Hughes and Dareus, someone needs to sit down with them and try to help them, those pre-snap penalties are inexcusable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
