Re: High-Scoring Quarters
I found a few examples of NFL teams scoring six times in one quarter: Packers in 1945, Rams in 1950 and Rams again in 1980. Has any team scored seven or more times in one quarter?

Re: 'Common opponents' gets nod over 'better conference reco
One could argue that head-to-head should be lower in the list of divisional tiebreakers, as it represents only a two-game sample. Two teams in the same division share 12 common opponents, and this set of games carries more statistical weight.
