Up, down, up, down. There's no consistency with those numbers. Every NFL team is very close in terms of talent. Very little separates each team from the other. I would expect the numbers above to be more like a slightly curved line on a graph instead of seeing peaks and valleys.
What concerns me the most is how the amount of penalties per season has increased dramatically since 2009.
Year Total Penalties
2009 3,167
2010 3,217
2011 3,374
2012 3,319
2013 3,245
2014 3,526
2015 3,544
The NFL is getting more contentious with time.
Since 2009, the amount of total penalties has increased by 12%
Might have to put a muzzle on Rex next year.
