Worst Offense in History?

1992 Seahawks had 140 points, 41 turnovers and averaged 3.6 yards per play, and that was with a decent RB (Chris Warren). They averaged 4.9 yards per pass attempt, but if you go by net yards it's 3.27. Never scored more than 17 points

And then the following draft they selected Rick Mirer and everything was better.

That is interesting that one of the worst offenses in history isnt one of the worst teams in history.

The 09 Rams, for example, had the 32nd ranked offense and the 31st ranked defense. That team was partially propped up at the start by having a typically bad QB (Bulger) for the first half of the season and the team was only cartoonishly bad after trying out Boller and the appropriately named Keith Null.

That 92 Seahawks offense, though. Woof. Last in points scored. Last in total yards. Bottom 3 in turnovers. Last in First Downs. Last in Passing TDs. 2nd to last in Rushing TDs.

Ummm, he was better. He had a pretty good RC year, just downhill from there. Until the Bears came to save us

Their defense wasn't bad. Just had a hilariously inept offense to deal with

Bulger was still a good QB in 2009. Linehan, (13-35 as a HC), was an awful HC up to his firing during 2008. Devaney as GM, the drafting, and the owner were a complete f**king disaster. Spagnuolo didn't start to get things turned around until 2010. I don't blame Bulger, Spagnuolo, or the 12-15 other good NFL quality players on the team at the time for what happened in 2009.

Bobby Douglas commanded some ugly offense in his day.

2025 Pittsburgh Steelers

I think the 2025 Steelers offense will be better than the 2025 Seahawks offense.

It is going to be a close one. Especially if they allow Rodgers more freedom.

Run-heavy Steelers aim for balance with Rodgers

Steelers offensive coordinator Arthur Smith said he hopes last year's run-heavy offense can transition into more of a run-pass balance under new quarterback Aaron Rodgers.

In 1977 the Falcons defense gave up 129 pts all season ( 9 ppg the best ever ) and Atl went 7-7 lol

When I think of "worst offense", this is what comes to mind:

In 1987, during the player strike, there were a few games played with "scabs".
I was at the Colts-Bills game, which was a bad joke.
The Bills QB, Willie Totten, fumbled the snap 5 times, losing 4 of them.
The Bills yardage lost due to sacks/penalties (66,70) was almost as much as the total yardage gained. (163)
