Others were even worse than that.Here's a look at the worst NFL offenses in Week 9, ranked from bad to worst.MORE: The Sporting News' NFL trade deadline predictionsRanking the worst offenses in Week 97. CommandersThe Commanders were only out-gained by 30 yards in Sunday's loss to the Rams, but they were held to just 13 points and didn't finish drives against a Myles Garrett-led defense.Missing Terry McLaurin, Jayden Daniels relied in Van Jefferson and Chig Okonkwo next to Stefon Diggs. Daniels had a fine day considering the circumstances, but his running game did not: Washington rushed for only 60 yards on 19 attempts, with Austin Ekeler ineffective on eight carries. 6. LionsThe Lions managed a 19-9 win over the lowly Dolphins, but it was not the kind of day Detroit envisioned. Jared Goff and the offense didn't score a touchdown until the second half, and that would be the only time either team found the end zone all day.Detroit finished with 270 yards as Goff threw for only 174 and Jahmyr Gibbs averaged 3.7 yards per carry against a Miami defense that plays hard but hasn't been very effective this season.5. GiantsThe Giants finally earned a win in Philadelphia, but it was an ugly one. New York saw J.J. McCarthy exit for a portion of the game with a hip injury, and the only touchdown of the day for the Giants came when Jameis Winston found Isaiah Likely in the third quarter. Devin Singletary was the source of much of New York's offensive issues, as he ran for just 31 yards on 21 carries, but it was enough to walk out of Lincoln Financial Field victorious.Devin Singletary traveled a total of 275 yards on his 31 rushing yards, per @NextGenStats. His rushing efficiency of 8.86 (total distance traveled / rushing yards gained) is the 2nd worst among RBs with 10+ carries in a game this season. https://t.co/wQwRHz83nW— Doug Analytics (@Doug_Analytics) November 8, 20264. JetsIn recent weeks, the Jets' offense hasn't been the problem. It was the problem in Kansas City on Sunday, as New York failed to take advantage of numerous scoring opportunities in the first half by settling for field goals over touchdowns and couldn't score at all in the second half. The Jets finished with only 229 yards of offense as Geno Smith threw for 165, and Smith was sacked five times in the 35-12 loss.MORE:Braden Mann boots punt not seen in 20 years3. EaglesThe Eagles turned to Joe Milton III at quarterback this week, but it predictably didn't energize the offense. Philadelphia did find the end zone early thanks to Saquon Barkley, but that would be the extent of the scoring until a field goal out of the two-minute warning in the fourth quarter. Barkley finished with just 22 yards on 13 carries, while Milton rushed for 64 yards but was only 18-of-34 through the air.2. Dolphins No one is expecting much out of the Dolphins' offense, but there is no way to characterize its performance against a shaky Lions defense as positive. Miami finished with 228 total yards, with Malik Willis throwing for only 128 along with an interception as Ollie Gordon II averaged just 3.4 yards per carry. Even on a difficult day for the Lions' offense, the Dolphins' offense didn't do much to put real pressure on Detroit.1. RavensThe combination of steady rain, third-string QB Joe Fagnano and a middling offensive line did not pan out for the Ravens against the Jaguars on Thursday night.Joe Fagnano trips Derrick Henry on a handoff with no one around The latest blunder in the circus that is the Baltimore Ravens https://t.co/yKSSxf0Xfc— Kevin Oestreicher (@koestreicher34) November 6, 2026A long garbage-time touchdown run by Justice Hill skewed the numbers for the Ravens' offense, but Fagnano finished just 10-of-18 for 60 yards and two interceptions in a 33-10 loss, and Baltimore mustered only 10 first downs despite actually winning the time of possession battle.MORE NFL:Harrison Butker keeps missing field goals and Chiefs fans have had enoughRanking ideal potential deals for 12 NFL playoff contendersWatch how many Panthers staffers it takes to corral rogue Corgi
