76 total penalties for second least in the NFL and just 1 more than the Raiders who had the least. That's an improvement over 2022 when they had the 4th least penalties (81). They also were second in 2021 (72), 9th in 2020 (83) and 5th in 2019 (93). The link above has all years going back to 2006 for those interested in more data.
Seems one issue for the 2023 season was delay of game at 10 penalties putting them at a tie with Green Bay for second most.
Anyway, I thought people might be interested in seeing the team had another good year as far as total penalties. While that seems to represent a more disciplined team I do wonder if that also means they playing less aggressive at times.
Surprises me that the Raiders had the least penalties, it seems like for years they were the most penalized team for like ever. Pierce must be a
damn good Coach. Doesn't surprise me we were 2nd least though and yes, we have been very good in this aspect for years which shows good
discipline from our players which shows good coaching.
Need to cut down on the delay of game penalties though. I assume these don't count in Punting situations where it is intentional?
