Least/2d Least Penalties in the League

Not a lot has been said this year about the discipline that has been shown on the field by this football team.

Last year we were middle of the pack. In 2011 we were at the bottom of the barrel. We bitched, whined, pointed fingers. But now, now that we haven't been giving up free yardage, just like the absence of penalties, there has been an absence of praising ol' Ron's improvement in this area.

Here's a link showing penalty stats for the last 6 years or so:

You can manipulate it any way you like, so I didn't want to put "least penalized team" outright, but we are definitely at the top of the NFL.

If we keep this up, the wins should start coming.

Cheers

And they probably have the most penalties and general fug ups on special teams. Those insane running out of bounds penalties were ridiculous. That shouldn't be a rule.

Yep.

What blows my mind is our players have been hit by the punt TWICE in 3 games causing a change in possession. Twice! That's cray.

Without it a player could run untouched out of bounds down the sideline and make every special teams punt tackle tackle.

i thought we'd have a whole lot more offensive holding and defensive PIs by now.

Hey if you just jinxed us I'm going to have a hot air balloon made in the likeness of Alicejandra and I'm going to find out where you live, hover over your house, and drop leaflets in your lawn that contain Alice's best quotes on fashion advice, dieting tips, and advice on spending way too much on tie-dye Air Jordan's.

The main issue for me, is that our penalties always seem to come at the worst possible times. Luke's BS PI call in Buffalo for instance.  The lack of penalties should be applauded, but in crunch time it's almost as if everyone from RR on down the chain goes full retard.

 

However, maybe it's just me remembering some games incorrectly

teams may start intentionally kicking short.....takes Ginn out of a return and potential for clusterflucks

Yeah, there still have been some huge, game-changing penalties. One, at least, directly resulted in us not winning the game. BUT even with these horrible decisions, we have still lost 2 games by only a COMBINED 6 points. Not too shabby, eh?

Everyone's so rosy around here lately, just thought I would follow suit.

      Bryce’s new look. He looks like a grown up

      By bandu · Posted

      take a  look around the league at other young Qb's around Bryce Young's age group  such as Drake Maye , Jayden Daniels, Bo Nix , CJ Stroud  & Caleb Williams who at the time like Bryce Young they also were drafted also joined teams with a losing record .the only difference with these Qb's is after joining their teams with a losing record they led those same teams to a winning record in a very short period of time .it's simply what you call a game changer & or elite Qb's & then take a  look at  the other side of the coin you have Qb's such as Trey Lance, Zach Wilson, Mac Jones, Justin Fields  & Anthony Richardson also like Bryce Young all first round picks who instead of winning either did not play or led their teams to a losing record while playing  just because Bryce Young was a #1 overall pick does not necessarily mean that he will become improve with time if history tells you anything it's matter of fact just the opposite . lBryce Young who has an overall record of 14-30 & wildly inconsistent & never in the history pf the NFL has a Qb 5'10" or shorter had a successful carrer as Qb in the NFL  you have to ignore alot of FACTS & be really ignorant to the FACT to think Bryce Young is the future at Qb if anything history is telling you exactly what ?..just saying

      to me these two signings were so bad for the Panthers at the time of our young team. "Sean Gilbert was signed by the Carolina Panthers on April 21, 1998, after being traded from the Washington Redskins in a deal that sent the Panthers two first-round picks (Nos. 5 and 12) to Washington. The Panthers then re-signed Gilbert to a 7-year, $46.5 million contract extension on the same date"  The other was Jason Peters being picked in the First round of the 1998 draft. "Peter played for the Panthers from 1998 to 2001, appearing in 38 games (starting 20) and recording 88 total tackles, 7.5 sacks, and 1 fumble recovery His NFL career was cut short by a chronic neck stinger, forcing him to retire after the 2001 season
