My all-time favorite NFL game that I watched. Good times

[@Mr.PoliticallyIncorrect]

NFC Championship games like this really opened my eyes as to why the AFC lost every Super Bowl from 84-96. NFC teams like these 49ers and Cowboys were so complete on offense and defense. They had playmakers at almost every position. The AFC's best teams during this same era (Bills, Broncos, Dolphins, Bengals, Steelers) always had glaring weak spots that were easily exploited by the stronger NFC. They either had great defenses, but bad offenses (Steelers) or great offenses but bad defenses (Dolphins, Broncos, Bills)

[@RichV20]

Broncos defenses were top during this period, but their offense was mediocre. Oilers could score at will and shut teams down. But they'd always get exposed and exploited in the playoffs.

[@John_Locke_108]

Yeah after it ended it just felt like the NFL season was over. When Madden said "and congrats to the Bills for winning the AFC" it was like "oh yeah, there's another game" but it was a formality, and you know the Bills were going to get their asses beat.

[@quentincampbell612]

@@frankaddington1773 you do realize that the Bills beat the 49ers in the first ever no punt game that season, right. So, when you're putting down the Bills, you're also putting down the 49ers who lost to them and you're making the Cowboys victory over those same 49ers not sound so impressive.

[@frankaddington1773]

That's fine. I know that a Sept 13 game is of utmost importance for some, but as a Skins fan back then, I almost had to go to therapy over how much I hated that Dallas team, and I think many others did as well.

[@dionthornw9838]

He was a clutch player in his prime..

[@PaulGaither]

Emmitt is the product of a great runner behind all time great blocking. There have been great lines without great runners, and great runners who never had great lines. That was both together. Emmitt made defenders miss with both his elusiveness and would power through tackles. He also found ways to maintain balance and recover from tackles which would have seen other lesser backs fall to the ground. No way he has his records without that offensive line. Where would Sanders be had he played for Dallas? Where would Emmitt be had he played for Detroit? I doubt that their career numbers would be the same, and Barry might have kept playing for 3+ more years had he not been a Lion.

[@wavenstein]

@@PaulGaither Maybe so. But Emmitt shouldn't be penalized historically for taking advantage of being in a better situation. We can woulda/coulda/shoulda this to death but the bottom line is he did the job and he has the records and nothing can be done or said to change that reality. He was a smart runner. Tough as nails, elusive, could block, and could catch out of the backfield. And he was still a 1000 yd back well into his 30's long after that Oline had passed it's glory days. He was still a 1000 yd guy in his late 30's on a whole different team. Barry's greatness does absolutely nothing to negate Emmitt's. Dallas' entire offense sputtered with Emmitt off the field with a HOF QB and WR. He was the best player on 3 SB teams. No alternate universe changes any of that

I think the 49ers defense, while great during the regular season, looked really old and slow in this game.

Eric Davis wasn’t a #1 corner and Michael Irvin was killing him on these slants.

I was at this game with my wife. Still one of my fondest memories. I love you Lori
