NFL Offense Rankings 2024: Ranking All 32 NFL Offenses

With another week of the NFL season in the books, fans and bettors have a better picture of just what each offense may look like this season. Of course, how they play will change as injuries pile up, defenses focus on certain players, and according to how players and schemes evolve.

Some will get better. Some will get worse. But many will remain relatively the same.

Each week we will rank all 32 NFL offenses according to how they have performed and how we think they’ll continue to perform. They are subject to change from one week to the next and will not necessarily be based on statistical production.

Also, check out our weekly updated NFL Defense Rankings.

Here are our rankings for all 32 NFL passing offenses:

Ranking All 32 NFL Offenses

Defense may win championships, but if your offense can’t win games, your defense will never make it to a title game. Last season, two of the top three offenses (total yards) played in a conference championship game; only one of the top five defenses (total yards) made it to one.

Here is how we rank the NFL’s 32 offenses through Week 3:  

1. Minnesota Vikings (same)

Sam Darnold just keeps getting it done. Fans loved seeing the offense take control in the first half with four touchdowns. The offense all but disappeared in the second half, doing enough to get a pivotal field goal in the fourth quarter. They’ll need to be more consistent throughout the game and not fall asleep for a half to be in the top spot next week.

• Next Game: vs. Jets, 10/6 @ 9:30 a.m. ET

2. Baltimore Ravens (same)

The Ravens have a solid case to be the No. 1 offense in these rankings. But I don’t believe in their ability to win without the run game. Right now, they throw the ball enough to keep defenses honest, and that’s it. Now, I get it. You don't need to throw when the running game is enough to generate 200+ a night.

But what if a day comes when the running game falters?

• Next Game: @ Bengals, 10/6 @ 1 p.m. ET

3. Detroit Lions (up 2)

How about Jarad Goff? He went 18-18 for 292 yards and a pair of touchdowns to go along with a touchdown reception (MVP?), and they got 116 yards and three scores in the run game. Now, if only they could get the defense to step it up a little bit…

• Next Game: @ Cowboys, 10/13 @ 4:25 p.m. ET

4. San Francisco 49ers (up 3)

They lose most of their skill position, and the offense doesn’t miss a beat. Then they get them back, and the offense is even better because it doesn’t forget about Jauan Jennings now that Deebo Samuel and George Kittle are back.

• Next Game: vs. Cardinals, 10/6 @ 1 p.m. ET

5. Green Bay Packers (up 4)

This is a little generous considering the three interceptions, but I’m giving them credit for picking up where they let off when Jordan Love got hurt. Throwing three interceptions and abandoning the run game are negatives. But nearly completing an epic comeback with 22 points in the fourth quarter was impressive.

• Next Game: @ Rams, 10/6 @ 4:25 p.m. ET

6. Washington Commanders (up 4)

Jayden Daniels and the Commanders' offense just keep getting better and better. Daniels isn’t posting eye-popping stat lines, but he is very good at what he does (26-30 for 233 yards and a touchdown with one interception). The fact that the passing game is doing as well as it is without sacrificing the run game (37 carries for 216 yards and four touchdowns) is a testament to the great job the coaching staff is doing.

• Next Game: vs. Browns, 10/6 @ 1 p.m. ET

7. Buffalo Bills (down 4)

Right when I was starting to believe that the Bills offense, known and loved by fantasy football players everywhere, would be fine this year. But then they lay an egg like they did vs. the Ravens. The Baltimore defense is tough, but an offense as good as Buffalo’s should have been able to manage more than it did.

• Next Game: @ Texans, 10/6 @ 1 p.m. ET

8. Atlanta Falcons (up 4)    

Kirk Cousins and the passing game are getting better with each passing week. While they did not do much in the run game, it was effective when they did run. However, improving the passing game will not be enough for them to stay in our top ten. We need to see more touchdowns than field goals next week.

• Next Game: vs. Buccaneers, 10/3 @ 8:15 p.m. ET

9. Cincinnati Bengals (up 2)

Joe Burrow had a decent day, going 22-31 for 232 yards and two touchdowns, including a beautiful 63-yard score to J’Marr Chase. The run game may have found a new lead back in Chase Brown (15 carries for 80 yards and two touchdowns); the unit ran for 141 yards on 31 carries.

• Next Game: vs. Ravens 10/6 @ 1 p.m. ET

10. Seattle Seahawks (up 4)

I seriously thought about ranking these guys a bit higher after their 500+ yard night against the Lions on MNF. How often do you see an offense throw 56 times (completing 38) for 383 yards and a touchdown, and the team still runs for 100+ yards on the ground? I’m going to venture a guess and say it doesn’t happen often.

• Next Game: Giants, 10/6 @ 4:25 p.m. ET

11. Houston Texans (up 2)

The Texans' offense came alive against the Jaguars' defense, with C.J. Stroud throwing for 345 yards and a pair of touchdowns. But he did so without having to totally give up on the run game (101 yards and a TD on 26 carries). The run game will get better when Joe Mixon returns.

• Next Game: vs. Bills, 10/6 @ 1 p.m. ET

12. Philadelphia Eagles (down 8)

I’m starting to lose what faith I had in the Philly offense. Saquon Barkley appears to be doing well. But Jalen Hurts and the passing game is struggling. Not having A.J. Brown hurts, but he is not the only weapon the team has on the offensive side.

• Next Game: vs. Browns, 10/19/29 @ 1 p.m. ET                                                             

13. Kansas City Chiefs (down 5)

They finally got Travis Kelce involved in the offense, but that’s just about all they did. However, with Rashee Rice probably done for the year, the Chiefs may need to find another wide receiver (unless someone on the roster steps up). It will be interesting to see how the run game develops now that they are down to Kareem Hunt.

• Next Game: Saints, 10/07 @ 8:15 p.m. ET

14. New Orleans Saints (down 8)

Dropping them down this far might be a little harsh. But after such a fast start to the season, they seem to have fizzled out some. The passing game wasn’t bad, but it didn’t take any chances; with a 6.6 yards per attempt, Derek Carr appeared more cautious than usual.

The run game had a solid night (33 carries for 131 yards and three touchdowns). What happened to the downfield passing game?  

• Next Game: @ Chiefs, 10/07 @ 8:15 p.m. ET

15. Indianapolis Colts (up 3)

It’s a shame Anthon Richardson got knocked out of the game with an injury, but it just shows what a difference a QB makes. The passing game came alive with Joe Flacco under center, and it did so without giving up on the run (32 carries for 133 yards and a touchdown).

Richardson is considered day-to-day with oblique and abdominal strains.

• Next Game: @ Jaguars, 10/6 @ 1 p.m. ET

16. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (up 4)

It looks like Mayfield is going to either throw for 300+ or less 200 yards in a game. He went 30-47 for 347 yards and two touchdowns this week. But they were not all about the passing game and gained 111 yards and two touchdowns on 25 carries. A little balance would not be a bad thing, but they might be better off throwing the ball 50+ times a game since most of the talent is in the passing game.

• Next Game: @ Falcons, 10/3 @ 8:15 p.m. ET

17. Carolina Panthers (up 4)

Andy Dalton was not great, but he wasn’t bad, either. On the day. He went 25-40 for 220 yards and two touchdowns with an interception. The run game was solid, with 155 yards and a touchdown, led by Chubba Hubbard’s 104 yards.

• Next Game: vs. Bears, 10/6 @ 1 p.m. ET

18. New York Jets (down 3)

They didn’t fall any further, primarily out of respect for what Rodgers is capable of where he to get back to normal. But on Sunday, he couldn’t get the ball moving against a Denver defense that was not as good as it appeared to be. The run game was non-existent, and the passing game (24-42 for 224 yards) was not much better.

• Next Game: vs Raiders, 10/6 @ 4:05 p.m. ET

19. Arizona Cardinals (down 3)

A couple of weeks ago, the Cardinals' offense looked like it had the potential to become something special. Now, it just looks like a team in need of an identity. They got the run game moving this week (32 carries for 181 yards and a touchdown), but the passing game was dismal (16-22 for 142 yards and a touchdown).

• Next Game: @ 49ers, 10/6 @ 4:05 p.m. ET

20. Los Angeles Rams (down 3)

It wasn’t a bad day for the Rams offense. Stafford did well, going 20-29 for 224 yards with an interception. Gaining 4.6 yards per rush (26 carries for 119 yards) is nothing to sneeze at. But any day where you kick four field goal is not a great day.

21. New York Jets (same)

The performance of this offense against the Denver Broncos in Week 4 was not good. The run game disappeared, and Aaron Rodgers seemed to take a few giant leaps backwards in the offense. This offense probably should get knocked down a few pegs, but I still think Rodgers can get it done.

• Next Game: vs. Vikings @ 9:30 a.m. ET

22. Dallas Cowboys (same)

The run game is a joke (23 carries for 80 yards), and the passing game appears to be content with efficiency at the expense of explosiveness (and fun). There is no alternate universe where an offense with Dallas's talent barely beats the Giants.

• Next Game: @ Steelers, 10/6 @ 8:20 p.m. ET

23. Miami Dolphins (down 4)

It is becoming painful to watch this team try to play offense. I get that the quarterback hasn’t been there long, but look at how good Malik Willis played for Green Bay, so that excuse doesn’t fly. But it almost looks like they’ve given up. The offensive line can’t block. That shiftiness and speed that made Devone Achane must-see-tv has disappeared.

Something needs to be done here. Isn’t Mike McDaniel supposed to be one of those offensive geniuses?

• Next Game: @ Patriots, 10/6 @ 1 p.m. ET

24. Tennessee Titans (up 1)

Will Levis leaves with an injury, so comes Mason Rudolph, and the passing game still stinks. But the Titans get bumped up a spot for getting their run game going and scoring 32 points despite gaining less than 240 yards of total offense. Levis will have time to recover from his injury, but do they want him back in the lineup?

• Next Game: vs. Colts, 10/13 @ 1 p.m. ET

25. Las Vegas Raiders (down 1)

Gardner Minshew and the passing game looked decent the first three weeks, but not against the Browns (14-24 for 130 yards). But they had a good day in the run game (29 carries for 152 yards and two touchdowns).

• Next Game: @ Broncos, 10/6 @ 4:05 p.m. ET

26. Chicago Bears (up 2)

The Bears finally leaned into the run game this week, running it 28 times for 131 yards and two touchdowns. In doing so, I think it took some pressure off Caleb Williams to win the game. While he didn’t win it, throwing for 157 yards and a touchdown, he completed 74% of his passes and didn’t lose the game.

• Next Game: vs. Panthers, 10/6 @ 1 p.m. ET

27. Jacksonville Jaguars (up 2)

There were signs of life in the offense for once this season, but not because of Trevor Lawrence and the passing game (18-33 for 155 yards and two touchdowns). With 24 carries spread around to five different players, the Jags ran for a respectable 158 yards. They should have as much success, if not more, on the ground next week against the Colts.

• Next Game: vs. Colts, 10/6 @ 1 p.m. ET

28. New York Giants (up 2)

It was surprising that they couldn’t run the ball on the Dallas defense (26 yards on 24 total carries). But Daniel Jones had a solid day in the passing game, completing 29-40 for 281 yards. Fans have to hope Jones continues to target Malik Nabers (15) and Wan’Dale Robinson (14) as much as he did against Dallas.

• Next Game: @ Seahawks, 10/6 @ 4:25 p.m.

29. Los Angeles Chargers (down 4)

Justin Herbert has yet to throw for 200+ yards in a single game this season; he had four sub-200-yard games in the last two seasons combined. At least when the run game was working, they looked competitive. It’s been absent the last two weeks, both losses.

• Next Game: @ Broncos, 10/13 @ 4:05 p.m. ET

30. New England Patriots (down 3)

They had an identity when they were focused on establishing the run. But, instead, its like they really want to get their passing game going, but they just don’t have the personnel for it. If they want to throw, they might as well put Drake Maye in at quarterback.

• Next Game: vs Dolphins, 10/6 @ 1 p.m. ET

31. Cleveland Browns (up 1)

They moved up a spot, not because they played any better vs. the Raiders. Deshaun Watson can’t push the ball downfield, and their dink-and-dunk style is not working. Maybe they’ll be able to run the ball when Nick Chubb comes back; they certainly aren’t doing a good job without him.

• Next Game: @ Commanders, 10/6 @ 1 p.m. ET

32. Denver Broncos (down 1)

For most of the afternoon, the Broncos had negative yardage in the passing game, not because they were not throwing the ball (or trying to). On the day, they were 12-15 for 60 yards. But the run game was not too bad, gaining 126 yards on 31 carries. How a team could play this bad and still win is a mystery.

• Next Game: vs. Las Vegas, 10/6 @ 4:05 p.m. ET

Top Five NFL Passing Offenses - Week 4

1. Seattle Seahawks

• 38-56 for 396 yards, one touchdown, one interception, three sacks—last week, they threw the ball 50+ times, but they had no choice with the run game struggling. That was not an issue this week (19 carries for 133 yards and three touchdowns). But when you are throwing as well as Smith is, the last thing the ‘Hawks should do is throw less.

2. Green Bay Packers

• Jordan Love returned and had a day throwing for 389 yards (32-54) and four touchdowns. But it is tough to win games when you throw three interceptions.

3. Tampa Bay Buccaneers

• 30-47 for 347 yards, two touchdowns, no interceptions, two sacks—So far this season, when the Bucs have thrown for 300+, they win.

4.  Houston Texans

• 27-40 for 345 yards, two touchdowns, no interceptions, and two sacks—when C.J. Stroud is in sync with his receivers, the Texans offense is tough to beat.

5.  Chicago Bears

• 22-34 for 312 yards, one touchdown, no interceptions, and four sacks—performances like this one are what the Bears were dreaming about when they drafted Caleb Williams with the No. 1 pick.

Top Five NFL Rushing Offenses - Week 4

1. Baltimore Ravens

• 34 rushes for 271 yards and two touchdowns—I’ll admit it. I thought Derek Henry was washed up and would flop in Baltimore. Instead, he looks better than ever as he bulldozes defenders who are unlucky enough to be in a position to attempt a tackle.

2. Washington Commanders

• 37 carries for 216 yards and four touchdowns—If they can continue to run the ball like this, the sky is the limit for what Jaylen Daniels and the Commanders' offense can do this season.

3. Arizona Cardinals

• 32 carries for 181 yards and one touchdown—as good as they have run the ball this season, defenses should start cheating forward to stop the run, making it easier for Kyler Murray to connect with Marvin Harrison Jr. downfield.

4.  Jacksonville Jaguars

• 24 carries for 158 yards—If only they’d been able to pass the ball half as they ran it. They averaged more per carry (6.6 yards) than pass attempt (5.1).

5. Carolina Panthers

• 29 carries for 155 yards and one touchdown—Chubba Hubbard led the way with 104 yards and a touchdown on 18 carries.
