st pete gogolak Posted November 5, 2018 Posted November 5, 2018 Without researching NFL history, I'm pretty confident no team has ever successfully completed Single Digit Bingo in a single season. We've got a real shot! Zero - Check! Two - Difficult, not impossible. Three - Check! Four - Really, really difficult. Jets are probably are best chance. Five - Check!! Six - Check! Seven - How is this not already a thing? Total lock. Eight - Blowout, late touchdown and successful two point conversion (difficult, not impossible). Nine - Check! Seven games to cover four "squares". Let's get 'r done! 1 3
Ronin Posted November 5, 2018 Posted November 5, 2018 (edited) 1 point is possible too. One team nearly got a 1-pt. safety a week or two ago.

I think you need a touchdown to get a 1 point safety or a REALLY BIG sack on a 2 point try Edited November 5, 2018 by Dan Darragh 2

You would think it would be. Just checked, it's 2pts on the block and return. I find that odd that they would give them 2pts on a 1pt try. Edited November 5, 2018 by The Wiz

I just assume you aren't talking about a TD because that would just be insane. 1 5

So looks like no team could ever score just one point in a game. 1
KD in CA Posted November 5, 2018 Posted November 5, 2018 Great thread....this is how you enjoy a bad season! Sadly, I think we stumble this week to a 10 or a 13. 1 1

Agreed; I think Darnold is developing an appreciation for the finer points of a pick-6, and Milano is due to take one to the house!
