How often does this happen? I came across a game while looking at 1976 SF and wondering if they won a few game because their opponents were 6-21 on FGs

Minnesota Vikings at San Francisco 49ers - November 29th, 1976
Wilbur Jackson 30-156
Delvin Willliams 20-153

I immediately thought of this game but it just missed the cut.

12/23/07 - Giants 38, Bills 21

Ahmad Bradshaw - 17-151-1
Brandon Jacobs - 25-143-2

The Bills run defense was pretty bad in the late 00s.

The 1974 Broncos at Raiders game came to mind, but Denver's running back tandem just fell short:

11/24/74 Broncos 20 @ Raiders 17
Jon Keyworth 15-148
Otis Armstrong 29-146

Immediately thought of this game, but surprisingly (to me) only Franco Harris went over 150. Steelers got over 330 from 3 running backs combined though.
