“...than the average NFL TEAM had in 2014 (5.34)!”
That is also really hard to believe. Seems really low. (Perhaps it is because I only watch the Seahawks on Sundays!)
The one thing I hate to see for any player, regardless of team is any kind of injury.
It seems small until you start working the math. On average a team get around 60 offensive plays a game. So that’s about 120 total plays per game, with each team getting 5 or 6 penalties, or 10 to 12 combined penalties, around 10% of all plays having penalties. And remember that’s ACCEPTED penalties. Once you hit that 10% number and remember a lot of penalties get declined it works out.
