Unbelievable NFL Shootouts: The Jaw-Dropping Highest-Scoring Games You Have to See to Believe
Most Points by One Team:
Washington 72, New York Giants 41; Nov. 27, 1966
This previously mentioned shootout not only set the record for most combined points in a game, the Giants also set the mark for most points by one team during a regular-season game.
Pre-Super Bowl Era: Chicago Bears 73, Washington 0; Dec. 8, 1940
We’ll include this, but it was technically a playoff game before we had wild card, divisional rounds and everything else. The Bears lost to Washington 7-3 just a few weeks prior to the 1940 NFL Championship game, but it’s fair to say they flipped the script the second time around. Washington had nine turnovers and Chicago finished with 519 total yards. Just 119 of them were in the air (on 10 attempts) and Bill Osmanski rushed for a game-high 109 yards.ÂÂ
