it does include an extra game, so I guess it isn't AS impressive, but impressive none the less.
It's not that far fetched. At this point in that season, they were averaging 30.08, which would have been 481 points. But for the remaining four games they averaged 36 points a game (despite scoring 14 in the finale, when the starters only played about a quarter). We are currently averaging 29.3, which would put us at 467 if it were a 16 game schedule (498 if 17). But, let's say we average our normal output the whole way except we score 42 against Washington and Arizona, and 35 against Seattle. Then we hit 530, which averages to 31.15, which is about a quarter of a point less per game than the 1994 49ers.
Lots of teams have scored that much against those guys, so it's not impossible.
