The teams never met in a Super Bowl, but it was a historic performance by San Francisco when the teams met on Sunday. The 49ers passed for 310 yards and rushed for 311 yards, becoming the first team in NFL history to top the 300-yard mark both through the air and on the ground.
In fact, before this season, only 46 teams had ever hit 250 rushing yards and passing yards in the same game, with the 2010 Eagles being the most recent team. The first two teams to set this mark were in the AAFC, and it wasn’t until 1948 that an NFL team crossed those thresholds. Three times in the playoffs, including one Super Bowl, a team gained at least 250 yards passing and rushing.
