re: NFL.com: Top NFL offenses of all-time

Notice how almost this entire list is made up of Goodell era arena ball? Or at least post-1998 and post-rule changes.

And if people are going to complain about the exclusion of the Saints, where the hell is 1984 Dolphins? They averaged 32 points per game back when it was difficult to score. Marino passed for an NFL-record 5,084 yards and an NFL-record 48 Tds. Or the 1981 Chargers - Dan Fouts threw 609 times, completing 360 passes for 4,802 yards -- all NFL records. Averaging 30 points per game. Or the 1983 Skins with Riggins and Theismann?

The fact that not a single Saints offense during the Peyton / Brees regime isn't mention makes this entire article invalid.

There it is............

1998 Vikings>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>1998 Broncos..


AND The 1994 Niners offense was the best ever IMO..........

Really????? YOU said they were great until the Super Bowl... but started making excuses.....

Top 10: 5
11-20th: 5
21st-32nd: 6

Houston: 1st
NE: 8th
Jacksonville: 6th
Baltimore: 7th
NYG: 10th

Philly: 13th
Dallas: 14th
SD: 16th x2
Tennessee: 20th

KC: 24th x2
Oakland: 26th x2
Washington: 28th

Offense:
#1 Total: 457.3 YPG, +40.0 to #2 (Philly)
#1 Pass: 340.3 YPG, +32.9 to #2 (Saints)
#15 Run: 117.1 YPG

outside of the run game and YPA, which they still did damn well in...they were by far the best in majority of the categories.
