The 10 Best NFL Offenses of the Last Decade

2011 Green Bay Packers

We finally make it to the top offense of 2011, a year that produced an absurd 3 of the 10 best offenses of the past decade, with the Green Bay Packers.

The Packers went 15-1 in the regular season, not losing a game until Week 15 on the road in Kansas City, earning them a first round bye in the playoffs. They ended up being on the losing end of a stunning 37-20 upset by the eventual Super Bowl champion New York Giants, who went 8-8 in the regular season, making this yet another case of an elite offense likely being lost to history because of a disappointing postseason.

Jermichael Finley, Greg Jennings and Jordy Nelson all finished in the top-30 in Reception NEP, with Nelson's 117.33 ranking eighth in the NFL. They had five players record at least 500 receiving yards (that trio plus James Jones and Donald Driver), while all five of them each caught at least 6 touchdown passes.

It's no surprise that the Packers' receiving targets saw so much success, as Aaron Rodgers threw for a career-high 4,643 yards and 45 touchdowns, with only 6 interceptions. His 231.30 Passing NEP was the fourth-highest and his 0.43 Passing NEP per drop back was the second-highest of the decade.

The team's 0.38 Passing NEP per play was also the second-highest of the decade, and that carried them to huge numbers despite a middling rushing attack that saw a committee of Ryan Grant and James Starks led them to a 0.00 Rushing NEP, which was good for 12th in the league.

It was a phenomenal year for Rodgers, whose 9.0 percent touchdown rate was the second-highest a quarterback has posted in a season (minimum 200 attempts) since 2000, and while the Packers' season (like the other 2011 offenses on this list) was brought to a disappointing early finish, they boasted one of the most dangerous passing attacks of all time.
