In this week’s “Power Rankings” we run down the list of the Broncos’ 10 most-penalized players through the first eight games.
Unlike in weeks past, this list is in no way subjective. The stats bear out the rankings, as every spot is earned by hardline numbers.
First, players must have committed a minimum of two enforced penalties to qualify. Then, players are ranked based on penalties per 100 snaps. In other words, how often do you get flagged when you’re on the field.
For example, Peyton Manning has been on the field for 538 snaps and has been flagged twice. That’s a 0.37 penalties per 100 snaps. Manning did not make our list.
Penalty stats are all per nflpenalties.com, a comprehensive database of every single penalty amassed in the league dating back to 2009. Snap count stats are all per Pro Football Focus.
Commit the crime, do the time. And get tagged on our list that follows.
