Which LA team are you thinking of seeing? The Eagles play at both, and while Chargers tickets will be more expensive, it'll be your only chance to see an NFL game in a stadium that size

Oh poo poo, I thought the Chargers had one more year in SD. I'll probably go for the Chargers unless it's like twice as expensive

This works better if you have a recently dominant or at least very good team. I'd advise you to check out the Kawalimus system where you insult everyone's intelligence by claiming everything about your team is the worst ever in a transparent attempt to get attention, although you might have to find an obscure hobby to make people like you.

The Kawalimus system is a lot harder to pull off as a Bills fan, when everything about your team may in fact be the worst. :v:

I was looking around for something and found something pretty novel, a game in which a team never played a 4th down:

http://www.pro-football-reference.com/boxscores/200812210det.htm

Saints score on every drive except for a fumble while up 42-7 in the 4th quarter and then a kneel down to end it.

The 2008 Lions were kinda bad.

Not true. Second quarter, 9:54 to go, there's a 4th down play. Then again with 3:37 to go, then in the 3rd with 11:36 to go, with 7:12 to go, with 1:56 to go, and finally again in the 4th with 6:25 to go.

Did you look at the play by play?

A team, not both teams. The team that scored 7 points in that game predictably had plenty of 4th downs.

It made me wonder about the playoff game between the Chiefs and Colts where no one punted, but both teams kicked field goals on 4th down. I'd imagine not ever facing a 4th down is fairly unique.

Got it, apparently misread "a team never played a 4th down" as "no team ever played a 4th down" rather than "one team never played a 4th down."

Has there been a game where neither team played a 4th down?

PFR doesn't have play by play back this far but the highest scoring NFL game probably had at least 2 4th downs. One punt return for TD and a field goal at the end of the game.

Oooh, if we open it up to college maybe Georgia Tech over whoever it was 222-0, not because the bad team didn't punt but because they either turned it over or quick kicked every time to get rid of the ball? Someone watch the Jon Bois thing about that game again and tell me.

I ran a search with punts, 4th down attempts and FG attempts set to 0 since 1991 and only turned up two single team performances...

That Saints vs Lions game and a 2006 Bengals vs Raiders game.

The Bengals only won 27-10... because they turned the ball over 4 times.

Their drives went:

Interception
Touchdown
Touchdown
Fumble
Interception
End of Half
Touchdown
Touchdown
Interception
End of Game

That's... glorious.

No I'm not. I'm a Bears fan. I was just making fun of the Bills. I really need to do something about this dumb title.

To be fair, my previous statement also applies to the Browns, 49ers, Bears, Jets, Rams, Jags, Lions and Snyders.
