I’ve seen that stat and have never figured out how it’s possible.
Bad special teams. Also bad red zone defense. The margin of error in NFL games is much closer. A turnover, a 40 yard punt return, a missed kick, etc. can turn a close win into a close loss.

Playing for the Steelers in a game against the Giants in 1950, Bob Gage returned 22 punts. The Steelers turned the ball over 9 times so the Giants offense was epically bad at converting.

The Giants won 18-7 and scored all their points on defense, 2 safeties and 2 fumble recoveries for TDs including one by Tom Landry.
