Highest Scoring Super Bowls of All-Time

by

The Super Bowl has long been the pinnacle of American football, showcasing the sport’s most thrilling and high-scoring games, but what is Highest Scoring Super Bowls of All-Time?
Over the years, several matchups have stood out for their offensive fireworks and record-breaking performances. Let’s dive into the top seven highest-scoring Super Bowls of all time, each a testament to the explosive potential of the game.

1. Super Bowl XXIX: San Francisco 49ers vs. San Diego Chargers (75 Points)

On January 29, 1995, the San Francisco 49ers faced the San Diego Chargers in a game that would set the record for the highest combined score in Super Bowl history. The 49ers, led by quarterback Steve Young, dominated the game with a 49-26 victory, totalling 75 points between both teams. Young’s performance was nothing short of legendary, throwing six touchdown passes—a Super Bowl record that still stands today. This game not only highlighted the 49ers’ offensive prowess but also cemented Young’s legacy as one of the greats. 

2. Super Bowl LII: Philadelphia Eagles vs. New England Patriots (74 Points)

Fast forward to February 4, 2018, where the Philadelphia Eagles and the New England Patriots delivered a nail-biting showdown. The Eagles emerged victorious with a 41-33 win, bringing the total score to 74 points. This game is often remembered for the “Philly Special,” a trick play that saw quarterback Nick Foles catch a touchdown pass, showcasing the creativity and daring that defined the Eagles’ championship run.

3. Super Bowl LVII: Kansas City Chiefs vs. Philadelphia Eagles (73 Points)

In re recent high-scoring affair, the Kansas City Chiefs faced the Philadelphia Eagles on February 12, 2023. The Chiefs secured a narrow 38-35 victory, with both teams combining for 73 points, in a close, emotional game. . This game was a testament to the offensive capabilities of both squads featuring impressive performances from quarterbacks Patrick Mahomes and Jalen Hurts. Will they be able to top this in 2025?

4. Super Bowl XXXVII: Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs. Oakland Raiders (69 Points)

On January 26, 2003, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers clashed with the Oakland Raiders in a game that ended with a 48-21 scoreline, totalling 69 points. The Buccaneers’ defence played a pivotal role, recording five interceptions, three of which were returned for touchdowns, showcasing a dominant performance that complemented their potent offence.

5. Super Bowl XXVII: Dallas Cowboys vs. Buffalo Bills (69 Points)

The January 31, 1993, matchup between the Dallas Cowboys and the Buffalo Bills also saw a combined score of 69 points. The Cowboys triumphed with a 52-17 victory, thanks in part to their opportunistic defence, which forced nine turnovers, leading to a lopsided yet hi-scoring game.

6. Super Bowl XIII: Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Dallas Cowboys (66 Points)

Going back to January 21, 1979, the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Dallas Cowboys engaged in a thrilling contest that ended 35-31 favour of the Steelers, combining for 66 points. This game is often hailed as one of the greatest SuperBowls ever, featuring multiple lead changes and standout performances from both teams. A 70s’ classic, complete with big hair, and moustaches. 

7. Super Bowl XXIV: San Francisco 49ers vs. Denver Broncos (65 Points)

On January 8, 1990, the San Francisco 49ers delivered a commanding performance against the Denver Broncos, winning 55-10 and totalling 65 points. This game remains notable not only for its high score but also for the largest margin of victory in Super Bowl history. The 49ers’ 55 points are the most scored by a single team in a Super Bowl to date. It was vintage Joe Montana and Jerry Rice, in a game that will go down in infamy. 

These Highest Scoring Super Bowls of All-Time have provided fans with unforgettable moments, showcasing the excitement and unpredictability that make football such a beloved sport. What will Super Bowl 59 hold? Will we get one of the top scoring games again amongst these two teams?

Let’s see on Sunday!

Super Bowl in London

by

It’s that time of year again folks, as we get peppered with the big question of where to watch the Super Bowl in London.
With COVID finally in the clear, and the restaurant industry somewhat bouncing back, it seems like that people are going out again.
So let’s take a look at some of the places the Super Bowl in the UK and across London.

Watching the Super Bowl in London

We are hosting a few private parties again this year, but that doesn’t mean that there aren’t some great places to watch the big game.
With an 11:30pm start time, the Super Bowl will require venues to get a late license, something some of them forget when it comes to midnight (oops!).

So while we aren’t working with any bars directly this year, we can’t really recommend any of them with our having talked to the venue of looking at their set up and prices.
If you are a venue who is looking to promote your Super Bowl party in London, feel free to get in touch.

Home

The cost of living continues to bite, with the pint of a London pint now topping £7 for a tipple. Factor in buying rounds, food, and possibly tickets, and the price of going out to the Super Bowl is more than double what it was 5 years ago. Ouch.
ITV will be showing the Super Bowl, and being able to watch it at home means that you can not only save some dosh by not having to pay for overpriced beer, but you can also watch the game in your jammie pants.
Having mates around for the game can make for great traditions, especially if you add in pregame poker, bbq’s, Super Bowl squares and even some Madden to sweeten up the stakes.
A great Super Bowl home game is also a chance to be able to connect with many of your fantasy football teammates you never get a chance to connect in person with.

Casinos

London has several casinos in patches of the city that offer all night entertainment, and connectivity to transit. The Empire in Leicester Square has a sports bar, as do ones in Mayfair, and Stratford. Make sure that you contact the casino first to see if they have tables and what offers they might have. If you’re used to American sized casinos you will be shocked to find that many of their sports bar viewing options are quite small.

American Bars

There are plenty of American themed bars that are open late, and offer authentic Super Bowl experiences for fans. Hotel bars like the American Bar or Duck and Waffle offer premium menus and sophisticated ways to watch the Chiefs vs 49ers.

Bars

Again, we can’t vouch for any of these bars who are offering Super Bowl parties on social media, but from experience we can offer some words of caution when looking to book.
How late does the late license go until? Some venues might only get it until 1am, forcing viewers to scoot home to catch the second half. When do you stop serving? Some licenses might only have a liquor license until 1am as well.
If they usually don’t show the NFL, then you might be in for a frustrating experience, and menus are often subpar, an ‘pub chain’ microwave in the bag portions.
The worst Super Bowl parties are the ones where you are your friends have to head home after a night of bad service, 1 tv, and just sadness.

If you have some places you would like to promote, get in touch and we can look at how we can help. Hope that helps some fans looking to branch out for their own Super Bowl parties in London.

 

 

Week 14 Draftkings

by

Get your fantasy on! As we take a look at some of the great value picks to grab in our Week 14 Draftkings tips.
For many fantasy fans, your season long pool will be heading to the playoffs as the 2020 NFL is inching behind us.
How did you do? Anyone go undefeated this year?

We here at NFL in London are already making plans for a bigger fantasy offering for 2021, luckily we have been contacted by a few parties to make this do-able for 2021.
Watch this space.

Here are some of the top picks to consider for your week 14 DraftKings fantasy NFL lineup. Please join our Draftkings League so that you can play along with us every week.

QBs

Justin Herbert $6800

Fresh off of having his face stuffed by Bill Belichick and the Patriots, Herbert and the boys will be looking for revenge on Sunday after that egg that they laid. Luckily for Justin, he’ll be facing a Falcons squad that not only knows how to squander points, but also leads. Atlanta won’d have the men to cover all of those speedsters and stop the run, so this one could be a beauty upset.

Aaron Rodgers $7500

Rodgers is having an incredible year, and this week his team takes on the points-gushing Detroit Lions. Rodgers and Adams will light it up intros game, while Aaron Jones takes it to the house a few times. He might be a bit pricey, but you know he will put up the points.

RBs

Jonathan Taylor $5800

Taylor has been having a great rookie season, except when the Colts decide to run Hines right into the scrum. Taylor has an easy match against a Raiders squad who allowed over 200 rushing yards last week to a nobody. Taylor should feast on Las Vegas.

JD McKissic $4900

With Antonio Gibson out for Sunday, that leaves the rough and tough McKissic as the number one RB. This veteran should have no problem following his stout O-line for big gains against the 49ers. He’s a steal for under $5k.

WRs

Mike Williams $4700

Not the top guy on the team, but still pulls in loads of catches with an FPPG of 10.9, which is pretty good for under $5k. Herbert will be playing pissed, and tossing the ball around to everyone. Williams should be able to grab 50+ yards in this one.

Devante Adams $9300

Hey big spender! Looking to grab the priciest player in week 14? Look no further than Aaron Rodgers favourite toy. At $9300 he could break your bank if you want a fully balanced team, but if he scores 40+ points, it doesn’t really matter does it?

TEs

Rob Gronkowski $4800

Gronk has steadily becoming TB12s favourite 3rd down target. Gronk runs the Redzone slant that they used in New England constantly, so it’s not hard to see them connecting a few times in this game. With Tampa coming off of a bye week, they should be ready to score mega points.

Logan Thomas $3300

Another Washington player? This kid has speed, big hands, and a good blocking body, so it’s hard not to choose him for under $3500. Alex Smith will not be going deep on the 49ers squad, so look to Thomas for short yard gains.

DEF

Giants $2600

The New York Giants defence has been playing some dang good football lately. Smelling a chance at the playoffs, the Giants D will be harassing Kyler Murray constantly, something that he hates. If the Giants follow the roadmap to beating the Cardinals as set out in previous weeks, we could see Arizona losing yet another game.

Week 13 DraftKings

by

Are you ready for some football? We’re in the December home stretch of games, as we look at some Week 13 Draftkings picks.
If you haven’t yet joined our DraftKings League, make sure you look for NFL in London, where we play free and paid contests.
It’s free to play, and you can meet some new friends/ enemies every week.

Each week another player hoists the chalice of fantasy points, with Dalvin Cook being one of the big points getters every week. In week 12 Tyreek Hill exploded for 57.9 fantasy points, as he shredded the field for big games. Will Fuller also had a great week with 35.1 points, then tested positive for PID’s, and is gone for the rest of the season. If you had him in Fantasy (like I did), you would be extremely pissed off.

Here are some value picks to look at for Week 13 in the NFL.

QBs

Derek Carr $5800

Remember the adage for NFL Fantasy 2020? Take anyone who is playing the Jets. This week that honour belongs to Derek Carr. Carr is atrocious last week, as the Atlanta Falcons literally took a dump on the Raiders in a vicious beating. Carr will be out for blood this week against the Jets, & with Josh Jacobs out, this could put all the pressure on Carr to connect downfield.

Ryan Fitzpatrick $6000

Tua is a game time decision, so you might want to hold the finger on this one. Brian Flores would be an idiot to start Tua if he is anywhere near injured. I don’t even like the fact that they started him at all this season, as he should have been allowed to cook under Fitzmagic until he was ready. He should have plenty of time against a weakened Bengals D, connecting with Gesicki and Parker all day long .

RBs

Dalvin Cook $9500

It’s Cook versus the Jaguars, and it doesn’t look good for the cats. Jacksonville’s front D has gotten better in the past few weeks, allowing Mike Glennon to attempt to keep the team in the game. While the Vikings might suck in the secondary, all you have to do is give the ball to this guy and watch the points roll in. Yes, he is the priciest for the week, so you might want to consider your options before blowing your load on Cook. That came out wrong.

Giovani Bernard $5200

Joe Mixon is out, which once again heaps the pressure on Bernard to perform. He’s actually done not bad, considering the team is a shell of themselves after losing Joe Burrow. They’ll need Bernard to try to find some holes in that Miami D, which he should do.

WRs

Michael Pittman Jr. $4900

The Colts took a dick-punch last week, and you wonder how long it took them to heal after that tough loss. Pittman has fast become Phillip Rivers go to guy, and he should find some big holes in a weakened Texans squad. Houston is in trouble after being caught in the performance enhancing drugs scandal, and it will show this Sunday.

Jakobi Meyers $5500

The Patriots won last weekend! But Cam Newton had to apologise after it was apparent he had nothing to really do with the win. This should be Cam’s last year in New England, but Meyers should be there a long time after he’s gone. He’s got great hands, and an impressive yards after the catch to boot. Belichick will lean on him often on Sunday in a fast Chargers defence.

Tyler Boyd $4700

Boyd is the best player on a shit team, so you would figure he should see the ball. Allen will have no one to really throw to against the Dolphins, so look for Boyd to find any hole possible. Miami will open up some holes in their D for Boyd to find room, he should be able to get you some solid points for less than $5k.

TEs

Mike Gesicki $5500

A favourite target on the Dolphins squad, Gesicki always seems to find the end zone when you need him. He is quickly emerging as the go-to target for both Tua and Fitzmagic, filling a role greatly needed on this team. He continues to chunk in points, averaging 8.7 fppg.

Robert Tonyan $3700

An even better value is Tonyan, who will be looked at often by Aaron Rodgers. Boasting an impressive 12.5 fppg, Tonyan is used often in the redzone and slot slants. He is a big guy, with big hands and likes to lower the shoulders. He should be looked at often in week 13.

DEF

Colts $3000

Despite a vicious beating last week at the hands of the Titans, the Colts will look to rebound in week 13. For one thing, they don’t have to face Derek Henry once again. Luckily the Texans don’t pose much of a threat after losing loads of players to drugs last week. Houston has a poor O line, so Deshaun Watson could be in for a hell of a day.

Week 12 DraftKings

by

What a broken box of toys this week has been in the NFL! Covid is acting like some sort of ‘virus’ and depleting rosters across the league. Luckily we have our Week 12 DraftKings tips, so we can help you navigate some of the value players across the NFL.
As always, make sure you check the rosters just prior to game time, we often lose a lot of the news living in the UK, so jump on DraftKings and see which players are fully affected.
(I have James Conner and Jonathan Taylor in Fantasy….pluck me!)

The Ravens game has been moved, and the Broncos have been essentially been told ‘screw you’ by the league, as they must troll their roster for potential QBs against the stalwart Saints D. Good luck!

Here are some of the value players I am looking at for week 12 in the NFL. Make sure you join our DraftKings League, links below.

QBs

Daniel Jones $5500

Five weeks ago, I wouldn’t have taken a bet as to whether Daniel Jones was able to take off his helmet by himself, but things change. The Giants are emerging as the least sucky of all the suckiness in that division. Jones is facing the bashed up Bengals, who really have no horse in the race this season after the loss of Burrow. DJ should have plenty of time to connect to Slayton and Engram, and get you at least 2 TDs on the day.

Josh Allen $7600

If the Chargers have one big problem, it’s their secondary. Despite the heroics of Justin Herbert this season, he needs to play catch up on many players to cover the hole his D just opened up. With the Bills coming off a bye week, Allen will be pumped and primed to rip open a very tired Chargers squad. Allen is stacked nicely with Stefon Diggs if you are looking to pump up your points.

RBs

James White $4500

White is one of a few dwindling running backs available to the Patriots this weekend, after Rex Burkhead heads to the injury box. Cam Newton is going to need someone to run the ball and pick up his sloppy options, so that leaves none other than James White. A pretty good deal at $4500 if you’re saving up for a Cooks or Kamara.

Wayne Gallman $5000

Another Giant who could be poised for big points against a sunken Cinci team. Gallman is heir apparent to Saquon this season, and is finally healthy enough to create some options for the New York offence. Another good value for a RB, who you could pair with someone a little more expensive.

WRs

Cooper Kupp $6400

Kupp is fast becoming Goff’s number one target, and has been stellar every week for solid points. The 49ers have lost a lot of their team, so you wonder how much they will really be in this game. The Rams need to keep winning to keep pace, and Kupp will be putting up big points along the way.

Keenan Cole Sr. $3600

Cole is one of the few toys that Mike Glennon will get to play with this Sunday, in a game that no one expects that much from. Jacksonville’s D has kept them in games that they had no business being in, and Glennon is possibly the best throwing QB on the Jags roster. He should have time spreading the ball around and finding Cole for holes in the Browns D.

Devante Parker $5900

It looks like Tua will miss this game, as Fitzmagic returns to the Dolphins spotlight. You wonder what happens if Fitzy lights it up and puts on a big score, would he be the starter again? He will have plenty of time to connect with his fave receiver in Parker, who has the wheels to find any space on the field. They are playing the Jets, so loads of points!

TEs

Mike Gesicki $4300

Same reason as above for Parker. Fitzpatrick loves him some Gesicki, so he will have plenty of time to connect to his best TE. Gesicki has been having a great season thus far, and this game has the potential to be his best yet. The Dolphins will be looking to dump out the Jets and get a hold of second place in the AFC East.

DEF

Giants $3200

Wow! I must be coming down with something, because I chose a lot of Giants in this article. The Giants D has been the only thing that has kept them in games, and has caused massive headaches for teams like Washington. With a week off, it’s easy to see how they will be primed at home. The Bengals have a poor O line, so there should be plenty of time to get some sacks.
