Lions' Big Win Sets NFL Record with Unique Score

Did you know that the Detroit Lions' win over the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday was something special? The final score was 52-6, a combination that had never been seen in NFL history before. This unusual score is what's known as a "scorigami. " Scorigamis happen when a game ends with a score that's never been recorded before. In NFL history, there have been games where teams scored 52 points, but their opponents scored different amounts like 0, 3, 7, 9, 10, and 13 points. If the Jaguars had scored a touchdown but missed the two-point conversion, the score would have been 52-12, which is also a scorigami.

This particular game was the 1088th unique final score in NFL history, according to an NFL Scorigami tracker. The Lions have had quite a season with scorigamis. They've already had three others this season. On October 13th, they beat the Dallas Cowboys 47-9. Then, on September 15th, the New Orleans Saints beat the Cowboys 44-19. The San Francisco 49ers started the season with a 32-19 win over the New York Jets.
