Default NFL.com ranks Top 10 offenses in NFL history -- 2007 Pats are not #1

NFL Videos: Top 10 offenses

I know that the Pats did not win the Super Bowl and the 1999 Rams did but come on. Statistically speaking (yes, stats... what you normally use to determine if an offense is the best... or at least better than another one), the 2007 Patriots were the best offense in NFL HISTORY.

I guess this is a small victory for Marshall Faulk against the evil Pats. I wonder if he had anything to do with this list?

It could have been made before 2007. . . .

I don't think all time defenses or offenses should be on lists unless they win a ring. Same goes for all time best players.

The 1999 Rams won the Super Bowl. The 2007 Patriots did not.

The Rams deserve the title "Best offense in NFL history". They finished their job.

#2 in the entire history of the nfl ain't bad; puts the pats ahead of some pretty awesome teams and QB's. on the stats, the '99 rams, according to the clip, averaged 400.8 yards per game vs. 358.7 for the '07 pats, 32.9 points per game vs. 28.1 for the pats and scored 66 tds vs 54 for the pats. in addition, they finished the deal and won the SB. so, beyond being homers, what's the argument we're making? let's put an end to all of these discussions and cheer for the pats to win a fourth ring for the Belichick/Brady teams.

I saw this as well, The statistics are wrong.

54 td's? Hell, Tommy threw 50 TD's himself. and set the team set the ALL time record for scoring. Count 17 Rushing TD's and.............well, someone can't count. Maybe it's me - but I don't think so.

54 TD's was Tommy's final for the season, I think - So if they are not counting rushing TD's they will need to take a few away from Faulk for 1999.

I mean, I remember the 70 TD thing being a big deal during the season - Am I the only one?

I can get into the other no's, but according to my memory (and about 5min searching), the 2007 Patriots lead ALL categories.

It was set up - Martz and Hater Faulk were with Rich E. doing the countdown.

So the outcome of ONE game dictates the fate of the all time history of the game?

So, I guess Tyree is one of the NFL's greatest receivers, huh?

That's like the craziest statement ever. Entertaining!! But nutty as hell.

Where'd you get those numbers. They're all wrong. The Patriots averaged more points and scored more touchdowns than any team in NFL history. That yardage total is nonsense as well. None of those are correct.

Here are the correct numbers.

411.3 yards per game
36.8 pts per game (NFL record 589 total)
75 TD's (NFL record)

I expect this type of oversight from ESPN but I expect better from the NFL's own network.

I'm not mad at the list. The Rams finished.
