The Eagles are the most undisciplined team in the league with 44 accepted penalties (and three that were declined), and a stunning 7.1 penalties per 100 plays. That’s 10 more total penalties than the next team, the Buccaneers, who have 34; and nearly 2 more penalties per 100 plays than the next team, the Chargers, who average 5.4.
Certainly the season only being four games old is a factor. The Eagles penalty rate is so high that it will come down as the season progresses. NFLpenalties.com has tracked penalties since 2009, in that time the worst per play rate has been the 2011 Raiders at 5.
