Alright, so you wanna know ’bout the highest scoring NFL football game, huh? Well, lemme tell ya, it was a real barn burner! Back in 1966, them Washington Redskins and New York Giants, they went at it like cats and dogs. Scored a whopping 113 points together! Can you believe that? Them Redskins, they put up 72, and the Giants, well, they got 41. That’s a whole lotta points, I tell ya!
Now, I ain’t no fancy football expert or nothin’, but I heard tell that game was somethin’ else. They say there were touchdowns left and right, like 14 of ’em! And the lead changed hands four times in the last quarter alone! Imagine that, back and forth, back and forth, must’ve been excitin’ as a rooster fight! At halftime, they was all tied up at 23-23, then things really went crazy. One team would score, then the other would come right back. Folks say it was 40-30 at one point for the Rams, but that ain’t right, it must have been one of them other high-scoring games.
- 113 points total! That’s more points than I got chickens!
- 14 touchdowns! Lordy, they must’ve been runnin’ all over the place!
- Four lead changes in the fourth quarter! Kept them fans on the edge of their seats, I bet!
I reckon them fellas were just havin’ a good ol’ time scorin’. Maybe the defenses were tired, or maybe they just couldn’t stop each other. Whatever it was, it sure made for a high-scoring game. Now, I’ve seen some high-scoring games in my day, back when my grandpappy used to take me to the local high school games. But nothin’ like 113 points, no sirree! That’s more points than you can shake a stick at!
Nowadays, they got all these fancy stats and rankings and whatnot. They got folks who just sit around and talk about football all day, can you believe it? They look at all these numbers and try to figure out who’s the best and all that jazz. They even got websites and TV shows dedicated to it. I tell ya, it’s a whole different world now.
But back in ’66, they didn’t have all that fancy stuff. They just went out there and played football. And them Redskins and Giants, well, they played a game for the ages. A game that folks are still talkin’ about today. A game that holds the record for the highest-scoring NFL game ever.
So, there you have it. The highest-scoring NFL football game was between the Washington Redskins and the New York Giants in 1966. They scored 113 points together. And that, my friend, is a whole heck of a lot of points! I don’t know nothin’ about these college games or rankings they talk about on TV, but that 113 points, that’s a number I can remember!
I reckon if you wanna know more, you can go look it up on that there internet thingamajig. They got all sorts of information on there. But I’ve told you all I know. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I gotta go feed them chickens.
