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, individual and/or records:
“I also heard the whooping of the ice in the pond, my great bed-fellow in that part of Concord, as if it were restless in its bed and would fain turn over, were troubled with flatulency and bad dreams; or I was waked by the cracking of the ground by the frost, as if some one had driven a team against my door, and in the morning would find a crack in the earth a quarter of a mile long and a third of an inch wide.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Looks to me as if you’re trying to acquire a reputation as a lone wolf, Prewitt. You should know that in the Army, it’s not the individual that counts.”
—Daniel Taradash (b. 1913)
“Philosophy, astronomy, and politics were marked at zero, I remember. Botany variable, geology profound as regards the mud stains from any region within fifty miles of town, chemistry eccentric, anatomy unsystematic, sensational literature and crime records unique, violin player, boxer, swordsman, lawyer, and self-poisoner by cocaine and tobacco.”
—Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859–1930)
