Thread: Penalties?!

I wanted to make this a thread cause I think it is important. Someone mentioned that they announced we are the most penalized team on TV. I am confused. Looks like that belongs to Oakland and Green Bay.

Any thoughts?

it might have been John Madden who mentioned that.


also, I believe we lead in oline penalties, perhaps that quote was taken out of context, or maybe Madden's jus tlost it.

Any thoughts?

Oakland Sucks

I am going to go look up all the penalties for us this year and post it......stand by

We total 1379 yards in penalties. With a quick look at the numbers, that looks like the most in the NFL.
