Bears-Panthers Sets NFL Week 1 Scoring Record

The Bears and Panthers combined for 96 points, surpassing the previous Week 1 record of 88 points set by the Buccaneers and Saints in 2018. This marked the first time in NFL history that a game ended with a 59-37 score.

The high-scoring affair was also the most points ever scored by both the Bears and Panthers in a single game, though it fell short of the Bears' all-time scoring records of 61 points in 1965 and 1980, and 73 points in the 1940 championship game. beltedkingfisher.blog
