Biggest Penalty Discrepancy in NFL History today?
I just did some brief, half-assed research on this, but i think it's true. With 10 penalties accepted (13 total flags thrown) against us for 84 yards, and just one penalty for 5 yards against the Colts, I think our game today was one of the biggest penalty discrepancies ever.
The biggest penalty discrepancy (yardage wise) in NFL history was back in 2017, Eagles-Panthers. Philly had 10 penalties for 126 yards, Carolina had 1 penalty for 1 yard. The delta between penalty yards for philly in 2017 and us today is 44 yards.
Now, I'm not sure how many TOTAL FLAGS were thrown against Philly that game (vs penalties accepted), so it's possible that, if the Panthers declined less than 3 penalties against the eagles in 2017, our 13 flags thrown vs indy's 1 could be the biggest total penalties called discrepancy in NFL history.
