National Football League training camps are open for business and that can mean only one thing: We are ready for some football!
Since 2000, there have been 99 shutouts in the NFL. Last season there were five, with the St. Louis Rams being shutout in a pair of games. The Raiders, Redskins and Seahawks were the other three teams shutout in a game in 2011. The fewest shutouts since 2000 was four in 2004, while the most shutouts in a season since 2000 were 15 in the 2006 regular season.
The Denver Broncos are the NFL franchise that has the longest time span since their last shutout. The last time the Broncos were shutout was November 22, 1992, when they lost 24-0 to the Raiders. With the addition of Peyton Manning at QB, you have to wonder if that streak will continue to grow as long as Manning is at the helm. Manning’s Colts were never shutout in a regular-season game during his career in Indianapolis. They did lose one playoff game in January 2003 to the New York Jets, 41-0.
