The Untold Story Behind the Super Bowl’s Most Jaw-Dropping Passing Yards Record
The highest-scoring Super Bowl in history was when the San Francisco 49ers beat the San Diego Chargers 49-26 back in 1995. With Joe Montana at quarterback, the 49ers scored seven touchdowns in that game â six through the air. Another high-scoring affair, Super Bowl XXVII in 1993, saw the Dallas Cowboys score seven TDs in a blowout win over the Buffalo Bills. Four of those were passing touchdowns.
If youâre going to score a lot of points in the Super Bowl, you have to pass a lot. Equally, it seems if you lose a Super Bowl, thereâs also a chance youâll have to throw a lot. Brady holds the record for most passing yards in a Super Bowl when the New England Patriots lost to the Philadelphia Eagles. Not surprisingly, Brady also happens to hold the records for completions and passing attempts in leading the Pats to a historic comeback win over the Atlanta Falcons a year prior to the loss to the Eagles.
