10 Worst NFL Offenses 2024

32. New York Giants (Last Week: 32)

The New York Giants offense has been terrible all season. It even led to QB Daniel Jones being benched and released after Week 12. Sadly for Big Blue fans, Tommy DeVito and Drew Lock have made no difference as his replacement under center.

While they had a solid showing last week, they were back in terrible form in Week 14, as they posted just 11 points at home against the Saints. A perfect example of how bad things are is that Lock — who got the start again this week — was the team’s leading rusher on Sunday (59 yards).

31. Tennessee Titans (Last Week: 30)

The Tennessee Titans offense has been one of the worst offenses in the NFL for much of the season. While they’ve had some better showings recently, the Titans’ offense was again in awful form on Sunday. In a Week 14 clash of bad offenses against Jacksonville, a nice 102 rushing-yard day from Tony Pollard was wasted as Tennessee could only muster six points against the Jags. Unsurprisingly, it led to another loss this weekend.

30. Jacksonville Jaguars (Last Week: 31)

The Jacksonville Jaguars offense has been a major disappointment this season. Even when former No. 1 overall pick Trevor Lawrence was available they struggled. However, with him out for the season and Mac Jones filling in the unit has been even worse.

In a Week 14 matchup of awful offenses against the Titans, the Jags managed just 10 points. Jones threw for just over 200 and two interceptions. Enough to set up a loss on Sunday. Fortunately, their defense quieted Tennessee’s offense, and their 10 points were enough to get a W.

29. Las Vegas Raiders (Last Week: 29)

The expectations were not high for the Las Vegas Raiders offense in 2024. And the unit has delivered on those sad assumptions all season. The run game has offered next to nothing, the blocking isn’t good and Gardner Minshew has given proof he is better off as a backup.

Aidan O’Connell has been under center in recent weeks after Minshew suffered a season-ending injury. Well, the dumpster fire of a season on offense took another turn when O’Connell incurred a knee injury against the Buccaneers in Week 14 that will likely also end his season. It was the standout moment on another sad day as Las Vegas managed just 13 points in another loss.

28. Indianapolis Colts (Last Week: 28) – BYE

The Indianapolis Colts offense had a legitimate QB controversy on their hands. However, despite Joe Flacco seeming like the better choice, the franchise is thinking long-term and went back to youngster Anthony Richardson. While he has shown improvement in his passing, that was not the case against the Lions in Week 12.

That continued this week as he musted just over 100 yards and two INTs to go with his two TDs. Fortunately, they received 144 total yards from the run game, and boy, did they need it in a hard-fought 25-24 win over the Patriots this Sunday.

27. New England Patriots (Last Week: 27) – BYE

The New England Patriots offense has been an unsurprising disappointment for much of the 2024 season. Rookie Drake Maye was expected to get playing time and he has struggled, also as expected. However, he has started to show very nice signs of development in recent games.

In Week 13 against the Buccaneers, Young was again solid as he helped keep him in the game while nearly throwing 300 yards. Unfortunately, the Bucs defense completely shut down the run game (78 total yards), and the severely hampered their chances of making the most of two Tampa turnovers on Sunday.

26. Chicago Bears (Last Week: 22)

The Chicago Bears offense went into the season hoping top overall pick Caleb Williams could avoid the classic mistakes of a rookie QB early in the season. And over the first few weeks, it seemed like he might. However, in the second half, the inexperience has shown and there have been rumblings of potentially being benched.

In Week 14 against the 49ers, the offense struggled mightily. Williams did throw two TDs on Sunday. However, he managed just 134 yards through the air. Making matters impossible was the run game offering next to nothing as they tallied just 68 total yards against San Francisco.

25. New York Jets (Last Week: 26)

There was a lot of hope and hype surrounding Aaron Rodgers and the New York Jets offense this season. Yet despite some talented weapons, the unit hasn’t taken off (pun intended) in 2024. However, in Week 14 against rivals the Dolphins the NYJ offense had its best showing of the season.

On Sunday, the unit put up 26 as Rodgers threw for over 300 yards for the first time this season. And Garrett Wilson and Davante Adams reeled in over 100 receiving yards apiece. But in a perfect Jets moment, 26 wasn’t enough as the far better Miami offense scored 33 this weekend.

24. Cleveland Browns (Last Week: 24)

The Cleveland Browns offense has been one of the worst in the NFL this season as Deshaun Watson’s downward spiral into mediocrity hit new levels. However, with him out of the picture due to a season-ending Achilles injury, draft bust Jameis Winston is now the man under center and has brought life to the unit.

In Week 13, the former Bucs QB posted nearly 500 passing yards and four TDs as the offense scored 32 against the Broncos. But just like turnovers were a problem for him and the team last week, that was the case again on Sunday against the Steelers. Winston threw two more INTs in their loss to the Steelers and was far less efficient. Hitting on only 24 of his 41 passes.

23. Carolina Panthers (Last Week: 23)

After being benched after Week 2, 2023 No. 1 overall pick Bryce Young was given the Carolina Panthers starting QB spot back in Week 8. And while it hasn’t always been pretty, the former Alabama star has been better. Avoiding the turnover issues that plagued him for the last year and a half.

In Week 14, the Carolina offense was solid in a tough matchup against an elite Eagles defense. The run game posted 118 total yards, and Adam Thielen had a big day as he reeled in 102 through the air. Unfortunately, they only tallied 16 and came up just short of Philly this weekend.

22. New Orleans Saints (Last Week: 21)

The New Orleans Saints have not lived up to expectations in 2024 despite some talented weapons. Now they will have to go the rest of the season without top receiver Chris Olave, and probably starting QB Derek Carr. Fortunately for them, they played an even worse offense in Week 14.

On Sunday, the Saints managed just 14 points and Carr wasn’t spectacular before breaking his non-throwing hands, and the backfield delivered under 100 yards rushing. But the Giants’ offense is awful and only scored 11 against the New Orleans defense this weekend.

21. Atlanta Falcons (Last Week: 23)

The Atlanta Falcons offense has a lot of potential. They have a Pro Bowl-level QB in Kirk Cousins, a first-round pick running back with Bijan Robinson, and some nice weapons in the passing game. Yet, they have been a major disappointment in 2024, especially Cousins.

Week 14 was another example of that as Cousins posted an impressive 344 passing yards on Sunday. Unfortunately, he threw two more interceptions in a definitive 42-21 loss to the Vikings. It wasted 158 combined yards from the rushing attack.

20. Arizona Cardinals (Last Week: 18)

The Arizona Cardinals offense has the pieces to be a pretty good unit. Unfortunately, that did not show over much of the first half of the season. However, over the last month, the unit led by Kyler Murray has started to get some momentum and has played well.

In Week 14, however, two interceptions from Murray sunk their chances in a game against division rivals the Seahawks. While the run game chipped in with 121 yards on the ground, the passing game’s underwhelming performance played a key role in their 30-18 loss this weekend.

19. Dallas Cowboys (Last Week: 20)

The Dallas Cowboys offense is not expected to do much for the rest of this season after Dak Prescott suffered a season-ending injury in Week 10. Yet, despite going with backup Cooper Rush in Week 12, they actually had a vintage showing as they posted 34 against rivals the Commanders.

They continued that momentum in Week 13 and were solid Monday night in their game against the Bengals. Rush threw two more TDs, and they were again led by a big day from running back Rico Dowdle (131 rushing yards). Unfortunately, two key turnovers hurt them this week as they managed just 20 points in a loss to Cincy.

18. Seattle Seahawks (Last Week: 19)

The Seattle Seahawks offense has been a solid group in 2024, but they probably should be better considering the weapons on that side of the ball. In Week 14, the Seattle offense put up a well-balanced performance as they dropped 30 on the Cardinals.

With Kenneth Walker sidelined, second-year man Zach Charbonnet had a career day as he rumbled for 134 yards and two touchdowns in a dominant win over Arizona on Sunday.

17. Denver Broncos (Last Week: 17) – BYE

The Denver Broncos offense was up and down over the season’s first nine weeks. It was to be expected with rookie QB Bo Nix under center. However, in recent games, the young QB has started to build some serious momentum towards Rookie of the Year contention. That was evident in Week 12 and continued in Week 13 as he helped lead the team to 41 points in a win over the Browns.

While he did throw two interceptions, he did toss for nearly 300 yards. Fortunately, the turnovers did not undercut their chances, and it helped that they got over 100 rushing yards to give the offense more balance.

16. Los Angeles Chargers (Last Week: 15)

With Jim Harbaugh as head coach, the Los Angeles Chargers offense is not the high-flying group it was the last few seasons. Instead, they aim to be more balanced and led by running back JK Dobbins. While it isn’t as exciting it has been effective against most defense. That wasn’t the case against the Chiefs in Week 14.

The KC defense held the Chargers rushing attack in check on Sunday and limited them to just 94 total yards. QB Justin Herbert was not able to pick up the slack, and he was bottled up for most of the night as the LA offense could only manage 17 points in a frustrating last-second loss in KC.

15. Pittsburgh Steelers (Last Week: 13)

Since Russell Wilson took over as QB in Week 7, the Pittsburgh Steelers offense has developed a lot of momentum. The run game remains solid, but the passing attack has become a major threat to opposing defenses each week.

While they didn’t fill up that stat sheet in Week 14 against the Browns, they made the most of three turnovers by Cleveland and helped to post 27 points in another win on Sunday. Wilson only tallied 158 passing yards, but he threw for two more TDs. The run game was the star of the show, as they combined for 120 yards this weekend.

14. San Francisco 49ers (Last Week: 16)

The San Francisco 49ers entered the new season as the best offense in the NFL. However, huge injuries to top offensive stars Christian McCaffrey, Deebo Samuel, and Brandon Aiyuk have hindered them from being the dominant force they were in 2023.

With both their top running backs out in Week 14, the offense was able to persevere, and Brock Purdy had a dynamite game. Throwing for 325 yards and two TDs in a badly-needed win over the Bears on Sunday.

13. Houston Texans (Last Week: 11) – BYE

The Houston Texans offense has shown this season how formidable and dominant they can be. However, on occasion, they have had some surprising performances. We saw an example of that in Week 12 as they posted a misleading 27 points against the lowly Titans.

This Sunday, they were in a surprising dogfight with another bad team, this time the Jaguars. CJ Stroud had a decent game, but the unit was lifted up by huge days from Joe Mixon (101 rushing yards and a TD) and Nico Collins (119 receiving yards). And they needed it in a close 23-20 win over Jacksonville.

12. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (Last Week: 9)

Despite QB guru Dave Canales heading to Carolina before the season, Baker Mayfield’s magic with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers has remained in 2024 and their offense had been one of the better units in the league when healthy.

In Week 14, they could have had an even better game if not for two interceptions from their star QB. Nevertheless, Mayfield tallied just under 300 passing yards and three more TDs. He also got a solid day from his run game, as they posted 152 combined yards.

11. Green Bay Packers (Last Week: 8)

After some early season struggles, the Green Bay Packers offense has returned to top-10 form over the last month. They feature a talented young QB, a strong receiving corps, and a star running back that gives them good balance.

While the unit did not fill up the stat sheet on Thursday night, they still posted 31 points against a good Lions defense. Love connected on 12 of 20 passes for over 200 yards and a TD. Unfortunately, after a highly competitive four quarters, they came up short in an entertaining 34-31 shootout to Detroit.

10 Best NFL Offenses 2024

10. Miami Dolphins (Last Week: 12)

The Miami Dolphins offense plummeted in our NFL offense rankings with starting QB Tua Tagovailoa out for much of the first half of the season after suffering a fourth concussion in five seasons. However, the Pro Bowler has been back under center for the last month-plus, and unsurprisingly, the offense has taken off.

After a surprising off game last week, the Dolphins offense recaptured its recent momentum as they dropped 32 on rivals the Jets in Week 14. Tagovailoa tossed 331 passing yards and two more TDS on Sunday. The big issue is while the passing game is back in vintage form, the run game continues to be a problem (44 total yards).

9. Kansas City Chiefs (Last Week: 7)

The defending champion Kansas City Chiefs offense hasn’t been a dominant force in 2024, but they continue to chug along, put up points, and win games by making big plays when it matters most. However, the last few weeks have been a struggle at times. And that continued in Week 14 against the Chargers.

The Los Angeles defense stifled the Chiefs run game and allowed just 96 combined yards. The passing attack was no better as KC managed just 19 points. But thanks to their defense that was enough to get another win and AFC West title on Sunday.

8. Washington Commanders (Last Week: 10) – BYE

Top pick and 2023 Heisman Trophy winner Jayden Daniels has been everything the Washington Commanders offense could have hoped for and more. The rookie QB has been a threat through the air and on the ground and has been key in being a contender for the NFC East title this season.

After a very rough day last week, the Commanders’ offense came back to life on Sunday when they dropped 42 on the Titans. Daniels hit on 25 of his 30 passes and threw three more TDs. Running back Brian Robinson gave the unit balance with 103 yards and a TD on just 16 carries this weekend.

7. Cincinnati Bengals (Last Week: 5)

Joe Burrow and the Cincinnati Bengals offense have not been as formidable as in years past due to injuries and the lack of a reliable run game. Nevertheless, the Bengals offense is still one of the better units in the NFL and showed it again in Week 14 when they dropped 27 on the Cowboys Monday night.

Burrow was in vintage form as he tallied 369 passing yards and three more TDs in their 27-20 win. However, the big standout was Ja’Marr Chase, as the receiver absolutely dominated the Dallas defense to the tune of 177 receiving yards and two TDs.

6. Los Angeles Rams (Last Week: 14)

When Matthew Stafford has his full complement of weapons the Los Angeles Rams offense can be dynamite. That was on full display in a wild shootout against the Bills in Week 14. On Sunday, the Buffalo defense had no answer for the dynamic receiving combo of Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp.

The star receivers combined for 17 catches, 254 receiving yards, and a pair of touchdowns. And the Rams needed every bit of it as their 44 points on offense was just enough to outlast the Bills this weekend, 44-42.

5. Baltimore Ravens (Last Week: 4) – BYE

The Baltimore Ravens offense entered Week 13 as one of the top units in 2024. Last week, they had a big day as they helped to post 30 in a win against the Chargers. However, they struggled mightily against a very good Eagles defense on Sunday. The Ravens’ vaunted rushing attack was held down for much of the day and they only had 12 until posted a final-minute touchdown when the game was out of reach.

While they had 19 on the final scoreboard, Baltimore had a rough day against Philly.

4. Minnesota Vikings (Last Week: 6)

The Minnesota Vikings offense has been one of the biggest surprises of 2024. While they have had some bumps in the road on occasion, former draft bust Sam Darnold is in the midst of a career renaissance as the leader of one of the best offenses in the NFL.

The QB and offense hit a high point in Week 14 with a dominant 42-21 win over the Falcons. Darnold had a career day as he posted 347 yards and five touchdowns. Two receivers had over 130 yards, and the run game also added 115 total yards. This offense is getting red hot at a good time in the season.

3. Philadelphia Eagles (Last Week: 3)

The Philadelphia Eagles offense was not as dominant as expected early in the year after star receiver AJ Brown missed several games. However, since the talented pass catcher returned, the unit has soared in recent weeks (pun intended). However, for a second straight week, the unit struggled. This time to the Panthers.

Jalen Hurts threw for just over 100 yards in back-to-back games, but just like last week, MVP candidate Saquon Barkley bailed the offense out. He rushed for 124 more yards on Sunday and guided the offense to 22 points. Which, fortunately, was enough to beat Carolina this weekend.

2. Buffalo Bills (Last Week: 2)

Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills offense has been one of the best in the league all season with a total team effort and smart play. They don’t always fill up the stat sheet, but they continue to put up a boatload of points. Just like they did in Week 14 against the Rams.

Allen was unbelievable against Los Angeles. The MVP candidate had 424 total yards (82 rushing) and six touchdowns (three passing and three running). However, that and 106 yards from Khalil Shakir were not enough, as their 42 points were two less than the Rams scored this weekend.

1. Detroit Lions (Last Week: 1)

The Detroit Lions offense showed in 2023 that they were for real and entered the new season as one of the most dangerous offenses in football. After some early-season struggles, the unit has hit a groove over the last couple of months and has been a dominant force. That showed again in a big Week 14 victory over the Packers.

On Thursday, MVP candidate Jared Goff connected on 31 of his 42 passes for 283 yards and three more TDs. The run game also chipped in with 111 total yards as they helped the team post 34 points against Green Bay.
