  • This is a list of the highest-scoring games in the National Football League, both from the regular season and postseason. The highest-scoring game overall was a 1966 game between the Washington Redskins and New York Giants, which produced a combined 113 points with a score of 72–41. Scoring can be achieved through touchdowns (6 points), point after touchdown (1 point), 2-point conversion, a safety (also 2 points) or a field goal (3 points). In the event of a tie after four quarters, the overtime period allows scores to increase further as teams try to win it out of regulation. The NFL has had a longer presence of high scoring games in contrast to the NBA, which saw much higher scores after implementing a shot clock rule. For example, the aforementioned NFL game between the Redskins and Giants has held the record for more than 50 years, and as of the end of the 2021 season, four of the top 10 highest scores from regular-season games occurred in the pre-Super Bowl era.
