Is it possible to overreact to a team scoring 70 points in a single NFL game? Like, is there anything we can say about what the Miami Dolphins did to the Denver Broncos on Sunday that would be too over-the-top?
The Dolphins had 726 yards of offense in their Week 3 win, nine short of the single-game NFL record, which has stood since the Rams rolled up 735 on the Yanks in 1951. Yeah, the Yanks. Joe DiMaggio must have been out that day. The only team that has ever scored more touchdowns in a game than the Dolphins' 10 is the 1940 Bears, who scored 11 in that year's championship game against Washington.
