Jacksonville Jaguars are the best combination: 2nd in point differential per game (15.3) and 3rd in penalty yards per game (40.3). Clubs good at one tend to be good at the other (r = 0.21, oriented so positive means good goes with good).

Point differential per game across, penalty yards per game up. A lower-is-better axis is inverted so better stays up and right.

How these are measured

Season numbers from ESPN's team statistics, raw per game or per play — not adjusted for the opponents faced. Dashed lines mark the league median; the dashed diagonal is the least-squares line, and r under the chart says how tightly the two move together. Full definitions are on team stats.
