1982 Tampa Bay Buccaneers Season - Team and Individual Records

Team and Individual Records

Some team records set in 1982 still stand. The following would remain team records if averaged and projected out to a full 16-game season:

  • Fewest penalties allowed in a season (38)
  • Fewest yards penalized in a season (297)
  • Most fumbles in a game (8 vs. New York Jets, 12/12)

The following remains a record due to the shortened season, but is not on pace for a record if projected out to a full season:

  • Fewest sacks allowed (11), only one short of the 12 allowed by the 1979 team

The following records set in 1982 have since been broken:

  • Fewest passes intercepted (11, broken in 2002)
  • Most rushing attempts by an opposing player (34 by John Riggins of Washington on 9/19, broken by Heath Sherman of Philadelphia on 10/6/1991)
  • Most points placekicking, single game (14 by Bill Capece against Chicago on 1/1/83, later tied by three others and broken twice by Martin Gramatica)

Famous quotes containing the words team and, team, individual and/or records:

    Imagination is a valuable asset in business and she has a sister, Understanding, who also serves. Together they make a splendid team and business problems dissolve and the impossible is accomplished by their ministrations.... Imagination concerning the world’s wants and the individual’s needs should be the Alpha and Omega of self-education.
    Alice Foote MacDougall (1867–1945)

    Relying on any one disciplinary approach—time-out, negotiation, tough love, the star system—puts the parenting team at risk. Why? Because children adapt to any method very quickly; today’s effective technique becomes tomorrow’s worn dance.
    Ron Taffel (20th century)

    Freedom, morality, and the human dignity of the individual consists precisely in this; that he does good not because he is forced to do so, but because he freely conceives it, wants it, and loves it.
    Mikhail Bakunin (1814–1876)

    The camera relieves us of the burden of memory. It surveys us like God, and it surveys for us. Yet no other god has been so cynical, for the camera records in order to forget.
    John Berger (b. 1926)
