sullim4 Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 I'm genuinely curious here, and I know many of you are stat freaks. Any insights into how badly the offense is playing, relative to historically bad teams like the 1976 Bucs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jahnyc Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 I am wondering as well, but let's not forget that this year is seeing scoring at a record pace and things were different for offenses back in 1976 as compared to now in terms of rules and sophistication. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warren Zevon Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 A couple of weeks ago I saw a stat they were the 2nd worst other than some 2000s Dolphins team. Likely the worst now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cotton Fitzsimmons Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 It looks like the 2000 Browns scored 161 points that season. That’s the worst output for a season going back 20 years. We’re on pace for 174, but given the trend it’s hard to say we won’t have a solid crack at <160 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
26CornerBlitz Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 Oh it's rank alright and very offensive! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fadingpain Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 Point differential is a pretty solid indicator of how good or bad a team is. Our worst season all time is 1971. We had a MINUS 210 point differential for the season. (14 games back then). Right now, we are handily worst in the league for 2018, with a differential of MINUS 113. Next worst team is Phoenix with -89. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thru 8 games the Bills are at 87 points scored, or 10.975 ppg. It's getting really close .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I posted this in the GDT but probably should have posted it here... No team has averaged fewer points per game since the 2006 Oakland Raiders averaged 10.5. And, the last team to average less than 14 points per game (two touchdowns per game) was the 2012 Kansas City Chiefs. And, their offensive coordinator was our very own Brian Daboll. Is it talent? Is it scheme? Is it play calling? I'm of the opinion that it is all of the above. Everyone can see we need more talent on offense. But, we also have a coordinator who has never had much success as an OC anywhere in the NFL (Buffalo being his 4th stop). 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midwest1981 Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 Considering the unprecedented offensive production we’re seeing, our impotent results are staggering and embarrassing. But we still won’t likely be the least productive offense of all time since the 1992 Seattle Seahawks, who went 2-14, only scored 140 points, the fewest in a 16-game season.

Rock-A-Bye Beasley Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 In the last 14 games we have thrown under 100 yards 5 times. The Browns that went 1-32 only did that once. 0-16 lions also once. 12 minutes ago, Midwest1981 said: Considering the unprecedented offensive production we’re seeing, our impotent results are staggering and embarrassing. Our production needs to be adjusted to league average to show how truly terrible it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are in a high scoring/high passing yardage environment now, so this offensive performance is truly pathetic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cool, I knew my 1971 signed team ball with OJ and Al Cowling's signatures would be worth something.....just didn't know why.....thanks Mom and Dad!

row_33 Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 Pats played to win with minimal effort in the first half when they needed key yards in the 4th it was zip zip zip zip down the field like clockwork so it should be really worse for point diff, if that really matters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
