Grew up in SF Bay Area listening to Lon Simmons announce the Niners and Giants games. One of the greatest and most underrated play by play announcers ever. He loved his teams and you could feel it in his voice.

This is the time in this game when Joe looked up in the stands and said, "Hey there's John Candy!" to his teammates in the huddle. It relaxed them. And they would go on to win. Thumbs up if you agree this is 100% TRUE!
Jerry Rice, John Taylor, Dwight Clark, Roger Craig... so many targets, so much time. Joe was the master of seeing everything on the field. The receivers and pass rush. Too many other quarterbacks had tunnel vision.
Dumisa Tony Johnson and Montana was about to head back to win 3 Super Bowls in a row and win his 5th one had the Giants not made that dirty hit from behind on him to put him out the game in the NFC championship
@@greatday558 no what make us loose that game was when roger Craig make that fumble they was winnig the game and he fumbled and giant recovered the ball whit 2:30 in the clock in the 4th quarter and tight the game
49ers have ball at own 8 yard line with 3:20 left in the game. Bengals lead 16-13. They go into the huddle. The conversation went something like this: 49ers tackle Harris Barton: Man we gotta get going! Joe Montana: Hey, check it out guys. There's John Candy in the end zone! Harris Barton: Huh? The 49ers players look down the field, and sure enough, there is John Candy, in the OPPOSITE end zone seats, over 100 yards away. Montana then drives 92 yards down field for a touchdown and the 49ers win the Super Bowl. They don't call him Joe Cool for nothing.

Almost like the ineligible receiver foul was just to knock a few seconds of the clock. Then again a great man once said I don't pay for the same real estate twice
He was a very good receiver and an important part of that team. But he did not have a HOF career. You don’t get into the Hall because of a couple of spectacular plays. You have to look at their entire body of work. He just doesn’t stack up. His stat line is half of what the average HOF receiver has. He’s just not there.
The Niners defense of the 80s doesn’t get the credit they deserve! In this game they held an unstoppable offense out of the end zone. That plus facing Elway and Marino and only allowing one TD pass and four picks between them is a testament to how great they were!
The narrator(s) of these NFL FILMS were just amazing - and the dramatic classical music, too. I loved watching these things in the off-season or late at night.
@Paul Last Respect to you and your future first ballot HOF QB #10. This Sunday a new era begins but I have nothing but respect for the 1 who put the 1 in 18-1.
I just watched the 49ers/Giants 1990/91 NFC Championship game (Giants won 15-13, then went on to win the Super Bowl) yesterday. Quietly and in a subtle way, one of the greatest and most important games ever played given everything that happened in (and after) it
Tom Brady is THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME! And that's not just my opinion. www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000001035041/article/top-25-quarterbacks-of-all-time-patriots-tom-brady-leads-list
As a kid who grew up in the shadow of Candlestick in the 80-90s I remember the entire NEIGHBORHOOD turned into this game. You could literally open the window and it sounded like the stadium was packed. RIP Mom, Pops, Sis!!!!
@Scottandrewthill Scottandrewthill Montana never cheated, never relied on a kicker, 4-0 and never threw an INT. We also have proof of Joe's greatness as he won a Superbowl well before Rice, Craig, Rathman, Jones in 82 and led to Chiefs a game away from returning with average talent on that team as well.
@@singingchef23 brady won 3 before Wes and them came and won a Super Bowl with the patriots the first year he started mind you nobody even expect them to make the playoffs and people thought they season was over after drew went down and the patriots thought about firing bill at the time because of doing bad the first season and starting off 0-2 the next
THE CRAZIEST part of this video is watching Steve Young standing on the sidelines while Montana lit up the Bengals. Just think about what Steve Young would go on to do and to see him on the sidelines with a game on the line is a rare sight. Tom Brady and Joe Montana are the only two guys I would put in before Steve Young with the game on the line. 3rd place is John Elway. He could come back on you quick. Im 43 years old and remember watching all of those guys live as a kid. I grew up in Rhode Island as a Pats fan but they had some bad years and during that time I found my 8 year old self routing for Joe Montana and the 49ers. That era of QBs has yet to be matched with the amount of great players in the league all at the same time.

Oh the look he has in his eyes when he plays damn just so focused and cool. I came to Canada in the 80s knew nothing about football, when I got introduced to it I instantly became a Montana and the 49ers fan. The niners back then was absolutely dynamite. That was the dream team.
The amazing thing about this drive is that walsh could have settled for three,but he said no we going for the win,and thats what winners do they dont settle they go the win.
Wonder how different it would have been had Billups not dropped the interception in the end zone in the 4th quarter? On the next play Montana tied the game at 13-13.I know you can't re-write history, but that may have changed the whole complexion of the game.
So true… After that interception Montana goes off for fourth straight touchdown Drives after cincinnati turns the ball over and implodes and the 49ers win in a blow out… Prove me wrong… That’s why your stupid what if scenarios never work because you never account for the fact that the game could go in a completely opposite direction than the one that you fantasize about with your what if scenarios.
LOL Joe Montana had been the 4th quarter clutch kid since he won the National Championship in College after sitting out with the flu for 2 1/2 quarters to score 2 TD's in 4 minutes in the 4th quarter to win the game. Tom may have perfected being a QB but Joe is the OG and manufactured whatever coach or scouts looks for and wants in a QB even to this day Pat Mahomes is compared to Joe Montana not TB. Look up the 1979 Cotton Bowl Classic and then you'll understand who Joe Montana was before he even took an NFL down, he never needed a Belilchick or Wash to be great he already just was.
I never went to a Superbowl, but I went to a few games at Candlestick during the Niners glory years. Sure was nice. Tickets on the 50, but I couldn't see all that much. Saw a lot more of the action at home on tv with a couple buddies...may they rest in peace.
brilliant move by walsh to run down the clock with 3 time outs left. how many times have you seen go ahead drives only to leave too much time remaining? this is the super bowl, it took some serious mettle to do that.
The look on the Bengals faces on the sidelines remind me of the look from the Patriots after the helmet catch. We're on the wrong side of history and there's nothing we can do.
Forget Brady. Rogers or anyone else 'Montana is without a doubt the GOAT.No other Qb had his mastery of the game and clutch play '.In that cincinnati SB he showed why he is the chess master of pro football.He and Jerry rice were the ultimate QB / WR combo. No one did it better.
John Taylor doesn’t get enough accolades for the catch. Not too mention many game winning catches or returns before the clutch catch. You know how many players got stone hands in that situation.
Joe Spitler The moment, the defenders so close to deflecting the pass . The total congestion of players in the red zone . Was a great pass still JT blocked it all out and ended the play. One last thought , how many times in SB or big moments in any sport the routine ,mundane play dudes choke ? Just think about it .
Joe Spitler sorry but one other thing I should have said he doesn’t get enough credit as an integral part of that team. That’s a better shout than the game winning SB catch. How’s that sit with you?
Dear Joe Montana your my mentor and the best of the best than all the rest no other QB was better on an off the field your my bro no other QB in my life was better than you I'm 64 an to me your the best you an the 49ers no other team ment more to me than you guys God bless yous all forever Amen
It's okay- Joe Montana has a GREAT Football Resume from college to the pros. ONLY QB in the last 50 YEARS to win a National Championship in college AND a Superbowl in the NFL
Montana: forever and always, THE G.O.A.T. @ QB; no one will replace him. The best any other player can achieve, is #2. Look at how Joe conducted himself, on and off the field. During those days when QB's had far fewer rules protecting them, he never whined or complained about being hit, always kept his composure, knowing what had to be done, then went out and did it.
@@colderbeer lol, found the pats fanboy.......Brady doesnt even make backup in the 80s, but put Joe in todays game with the pass friendly rules, Montana shreds. You cant compare eras boy, but notice this: Brady always plays just enough to get into FG range then sits on it to play it safe. Joe went for the throat
I watched this live. I remember the stress but the joy at the end. I felt sorry for Bengals. There was nothing they could do. Destiny was all against them.
In Ohio there was a chant "Who Goin beat dem Bengals , who?". A week before the game I put a sign in the back of my car "Montana, Dat who!" . I received about three thousand middle fingers but I am still laughing.

Y'all can talk about Brady ALL Y'ALL WANT!
Joe Montana is the G.Q.O.A.T.....✔💯▪❗❗❗
Bengals' quarterback: "Hey, we can actually win this thing!"
Joe Montana: "Ok Boomer."
Severely underliked comment
Lol!
It's nothing wrong for pursueing win. Especially against Montana.
I read it in my mind with montanas voice lol
Being a bengals fan finally seeing us in a Super Bowl with our own Cool Joe...gives me hope
Sorry for your Bengals loss again
The real GOAT
2:44 Steve Young on the sidelines thinking: "Next year, for sure I'll be running the offense!"
He low-key was hoping for a pick 6, what a dick lol
only one word...AWESOME!!!!!!!!!
And you mean to tell me John Taylor is not in the HOF? That’s wrong!
Yeah, it's not always about total yards in your career it's about catching the ball when it counts !!
Yeah, it's not always about the total number of yards in your career. I think what's more important is catching the ball when it counts.
No.. Doesn’t deserve to be in the HoF..
@@gussi123 Yeah he does.
He was a very good receiver and an important part of that team. But he did not have a HOF career. You don’t get into the Hall because of a couple of spectacular plays. You have to look at their entire body of work. He just doesn’t stack up. His stat line is half of what the average HOF receiver has. He’s just not there.
Bill Walsh, among the elite NFL coaches ever.
The Niners defense of the 80s doesn’t get the credit they deserve! In this game they held an unstoppable offense out of the end zone. That plus facing Elway and Marino and only allowing one TD pass and four picks between them is a testament to how great they were!
I agree. Best super bowl game in an era when real teams were developed. Free agency meant the end of legendary football.
I'm became a niners fan in 88 .I'll always thank Rice , taylor and Montana for there great memories...Go niners...
Born and raised a Niner fan, now 60. Aww, those were the days. Montana is the greatest QB ever.
I remember watching this game, this clip is gold.
#16 - The real Greatest Of All Time.
The narrator(s) of these NFL FILMS were just amazing - and the dramatic classical music, too. I loved watching these things in the off-season or late at night.
Thank you for sharing this! As a Fourty Niners fan, I will never forget this. Stunning performance by both teams but, especially by the Niners.
N Y Giants FAN FOR LIFE! But Montana was the greatest QB of all time.
You got that right. Niner 4 life
Niners since 89 ...live in MICHIGAN, MICHIGANER born and raised Tom will never be a JOE MONTANA and it will never be a JERRY RICE
@Paul Last Respect to you and your future first ballot HOF QB #10. This Sunday a new era begins but I have nothing but respect for the 1 who put the 1 in 18-1.
I just watched the 49ers/Giants 1990/91 NFC Championship game (Giants won 15-13, then went on to win the Super Bowl) yesterday. Quietly and in a subtle way, one of the greatest and most important games ever played given everything that happened in (and after) it
Tom Brady is THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME! And that's not just my opinion. www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000001035041/article/top-25-quarterbacks-of-all-time-patriots-tom-brady-leads-list
John Taylor was a great wide receiver, if he was a starter on another team he will be in the NFL Hall of Fame.
Taylor was a starter for niners
As a kid who grew up in the shadow of Candlestick in the 80-90s I remember the entire NEIGHBORHOOD turned into this game. You could literally open the window and it sounded like the stadium was packed. RIP Mom, Pops, Sis!!!!
I am in awe of the talents of Joe Montana. The GOAt for real. Forgot to say both side fought the fight to the end.
b5ranger001 Ranks right up there with Larry Bird, Michael Jordan, and Kirby Puckett.
@Scottandrewthill Scottandrewthill Montana never cheated, never relied on a kicker, 4-0 and never threw an INT. We also have proof of Joe's greatness as he won a Superbowl well before Rice, Craig, Rathman, Jones in 82 and led to Chiefs a game away from returning with average talent on that team as well.
@@singingchef23 totally Agree
@@singingchef23 brady won 3 before Wes and them came and won a Super Bowl with the patriots the first year he started mind you nobody even expect them to make the playoffs and people thought they season was over after drew went down and the patriots thought about firing bill at the time because of doing bad the first season and starting off 0-2 the next
THE CRAZIEST part of this video is watching Steve Young standing on the sidelines while Montana lit up the Bengals. Just think about what Steve Young would go on to do and to see him on the sidelines with a game on the line is a rare sight. Tom Brady and Joe Montana are the only two guys I would put in before Steve Young with the game on the line. 3rd place is John Elway. He could come back on you quick. Im 43 years old and remember watching all of those guys live as a kid. I grew up in Rhode Island as a Pats fan but they had some bad years and during that time I found my 8 year old self routing for Joe Montana and the 49ers. That era of QBs has yet to be matched with the amount of great players in the league all at the same time.
Rice had the best hands in football. I wasn't a 49ers fan but I couldn't deny one the best to players in the game
Rice had best hands in the 80's. Best hands all time? Biletnikoff!
@@radar0412 no. Rice greatest receiver, Carter greatest hands. No debate.
@@ThePopbanks007 Biletnikoff best hands. Carter second. It's already been proven.
the surgeon.never get tired of his highlights
Coach Bill and Coach Sam showing each other love/respect was a wonderful site. My they both rest in peace in heaven!!!
Uno de los mejores , señor Joe montanna gracias por tantas alegrías Alós 49ers ...👍✌️
Tom Brady.... hold my avocado toast bro.
Lon Simmons with the call from the radio. Total excitement
Today's QB's wouldn't last half a season playing in the 80's when you could actually hit the QB!
Lmao 😂 romanticising the old days. It's not even half as bad as y'all portrayed it to be
Bears Eagles Giants Raiders Redskins defense knocked out dozens of QBs in the 80s
@@1minute99 Defenses were allowed to destroy QB's until the late-90s. You're clueless if you think otherwise.
Exactly 🙏🏽👏👏👏🔥❤️

@Sideshow Bob varsity ..... Montana goat. Real football. Junior varsity.......brady goat. Flag football.
And no interceptions in any Super Bowls
It all started with the Ice Bowl. And a legend was born. ☘️
NCAA National Title for Montana for the 1977 season not 1979. Notre Dame won the title on Jan 1st 1978.
Add to that O picks in 4 super bowls. Unbelievable.
Joe Montana aka Mr Joe COOL!!
Oh the look he has in his eyes when he plays damn just so focused and cool. I came to Canada in the 80s knew nothing about football, when I got introduced to it I instantly became a Montana and the 49ers fan. The niners back then was absolutely dynamite. That was the dream team.
Joe looked so great, in San Fran colors ...Joe wore 16 ...I was born January 16 ...good stuff
Montana, Rice, Taylor, Craig, Lot ECT... Greatest football team ever assembled!!!
Turns out the 49ers would be the standard teams were judged against in the 90s too.
Much to the chagrin of Steve Young.
The amazing thing about this drive is that walsh could have settled for three,but he said no we going for the win,and thats what winners do they dont settle they go the win.
Bengals: We blew the Super Bowl.
Falcons: Hold my beer.
Wonder how different it would have been had Billups not dropped the interception in the end zone in the 4th quarter? On the next play Montana tied the game at 13-13.I know you can't re-write history, but that may have changed the whole complexion of the game.
So true… After that interception Montana goes off for fourth straight touchdown Drives after cincinnati turns the ball over and implodes and the 49ers win in a blow out… Prove me wrong… That’s why your stupid what if scenarios never work because you never account for the fact that the game could go in a completely opposite direction than the one that you fantasize about with your what if scenarios.
That was a great drive. Remember that Tom Brady did that not once but 3 times against the Falcons and twice against the Seahawks #1 defense.
LOL Joe Montana had been the 4th quarter clutch kid since he won the National Championship in College after sitting out with the flu for 2 1/2 quarters to score 2 TD's in 4 minutes in the 4th quarter to win the game. Tom may have perfected being a QB but Joe is the OG and manufactured whatever coach or scouts looks for and wants in a QB even to this day Pat Mahomes is compared to Joe Montana not TB. Look up the 1979 Cotton Bowl Classic and then you'll understand who Joe Montana was before he even took an NFL down, he never needed a Belilchick or Wash to be great he already just was.
I never went to a Superbowl, but I went to a few games at Candlestick during the Niners glory years.
Sure was nice. Tickets on the 50, but I couldn't see all that much. Saw a lot more of the action at home on tv with a couple buddies...may they rest in peace.
I literally cried my eyes out and is a huge reason I am a fanatic 49ers fan! This win will always be edged in my brain
Love that guy and I'm a bear's fan
brilliant move by walsh to run down the clock with 3 time outs left. how many times have you seen go ahead drives only to leave too much time remaining? this is the super bowl, it took some serious mettle to do that.
When you have Joe Montana taking your team down the field it's easy to have a lot of confidence!
As a Niners fan, this always lifts my spirits :)
Total precision and no panic!
I still get the chill!!!
The look on the Bengals faces on the sidelines remind me of the look from the Patriots after the helmet catch. We're on the wrong side of history and there's nothing we can do.
Don't forget the Super Bowl, Patriots down by 43 and 2 minutes left in the 3rd quarter and came back and WON
Forget Brady. Rogers or anyone else 'Montana is without a doubt the GOAT.No other Qb had his mastery of the game and clutch play '.In that cincinnati SB he showed why he is the chess master of pro football.He and Jerry rice were the ultimate QB / WR combo. No one did it better.
im a bengals fan, and the drive tore my heart out back then, but now i can respect it.
I'm not a fan of either team but that was the best superbowl I had ever seen.
James Solomon better than Super Bowl 52?????
John Taylor doesn’t get enough accolades for the catch. Not too mention many game winning catches or returns before the clutch catch. You know how many players got stone hands in that situation.
It was a routine catch, ball hit him in the #'s. That's what a WR is supposed to do when a ball is thrown that perfect.
Joe Spitler The moment, the defenders so close to deflecting the pass . The total congestion of players in the red zone . Was a great pass still JT blocked it all out and ended the play. One last thought , how many times in SB or big moments in any sport the routine ,mundane play dudes choke ? Just think about it .
Joe Spitler sorry but one other thing I should have said he doesn’t get enough credit as an integral part of that team. That’s a better shout than the game winning SB catch. How’s that sit with you?
We will never see a greater comEback in a Super Bowl EVER!
Dear Joe Montana your my mentor and the best of the best than all the rest no other QB was better on an off the field your my bro no other QB in my life was better than you I'm 64 an to me your the best you an the 49ers no other team ment more to me than you guys God bless yous all forever Amen
To me, this just cemented Joe Montana's place as the G.O.A.T. Say what you will, but Joe Cool came up big.
Not taking anything away from Tom Brady.
It's okay- Joe Montana has a GREAT Football Resume from college to the pros. ONLY QB in the last 50 YEARS to win a National Championship in college AND a Superbowl in the NFL
Used to see Joe playing catch with his sons at Acalanes High School
I remembered I was 8 first game I ever watched.... been a die-hard Niner fan ever since!!!!!
I was at this game and remember like it was yesterday 😁 I was going for the Bengals lol
Greatest final drive in sport's history!
GOATAli gridiron is the only sport where they have drives like that
Debatable. Packers vs Cowboys in the Ice Bowl. 3peat was on the line.
GOATAli
Super Bowl 38 🏟
New England Vs Carolina
Tom Brady
Super Bowl 38 🏟 MVP
Eli twice. And Eli ain't very good
bull Pats owns this record outright so get a clue
Montana: forever and always, THE G.O.A.T. @ QB; no one will replace him. The best any other player can achieve, is #2.
Look at how Joe conducted himself, on and off the field. During those days when QB's had far fewer rules protecting them, he never whined or complained about being hit, always kept his composure, knowing what had to be done, then went out and did it.
Ummm, ever heard of Tom Brady?
@@ATPH99PS3 um every heard of Tom Playing in the 80s. A untrained pet monkey can play in this era
That was one of those times that as much as I was cheering for Cincy, we knew that Joe Montana was going to find a way to win that game.
This is still the best Super Bowl of all time in my opinion.
In my opinion the greatest QB I've ever seen
Kurt Adams
He was pretty clutch
@@dumisatonyjohnson8145 yes indeed
For the time and decade yes by a Mile but overall no way any more. I’d say number two all time though.
@@hydro.pl.27 Joe Montana is a career back-up playing behind Tom Brady if he played in today's era.
@@colderbeer lol, found the pats fanboy.......Brady doesnt even make backup in the 80s, but put Joe in todays game with the pass friendly rules, Montana shreds. You cant compare eras boy, but notice this: Brady always plays just enough to get into FG range then sits on it to play it safe. Joe went for the throat
The book has a new chapter.
Remember this game so well love Joe Montana and the 49ers greatest supercool game ever
Being a Cowboys fan forever these 49ers teams were dangerous back in the 80's through the mid 90's.
When it came to comebacks there were damn few better .... If any !
Geezus, you have Joe and Steve.
I watched this live. I remember the stress but the joy at the end. I felt sorry for Bengals. There was nothing they could do.
Destiny was all against them.
In Ohio there was a chant "Who Goin beat dem Bengals , who?". A week before the game I put a sign in the back of my car "Montana, Dat who!" . I received about three thousand middle fingers but I am still laughing.
