Statistically, they do. They were third in the league in penalties accepted this season.
Minnesota was first.
Ah, well that might just be an artifact of getting to play the Jets twice a year, it probably skews the numbers
Edit: Seriously, though, I wonder if anyone keeps track of RTP penalties separately …
Edited edit: this site is interesting, it breaks it down by QB. Allen drew 7 more RTP calls, in 9 fewer games, than Mahomes…

True.
I just like that the narrative people are clinging to is directly contradicted by the numbers, and they sorta just ignore it.
When have facts ever let anyone get distracted from a good pity party?
Fair point.
