Games with the most lead-changes

Post by 74_75_78_79_ »

First one that comes to mind is SBXIV between Steelers and Rams (7) but I'm sure it's not the best example. Any others better than this one or at least some that come up just short but still worth mention?

I'm certain this one is the all-time leader with 12 lead changes:

I believe that famous 1983 Monday night game between the Packers and Redskins had five or six lead changes in the fourth quarter.

I think the record for fourth quarter lead changes is the Ravens Vikings 2013 snow game, which had six lead changes in the fourth period:

I checked the box score for that Packer-Redskin game (I should have done that in the first place) and saw that there were five lead changes in the fourth quarter.
