San Francisco 49ers vs L.A. Rams 1989 MNF Week 14

[@cbod14]

Let me make this clear: You can take Brady, Brees, Peyton, Favre & all the others and stick them where the sun don’t shine. This game began a stretch of QB play by Joe Montana like I’ve never seen since. From this game through Super Bowl XXIV Montana was simply flawless. If he were playing now he would obliterate passing records. Rant over

"If I'm the San Francisco 49ers, and want to go to the Super Bowl, the one team I don't want to play are the Los Angeles Rams". - Dan Deirdorf. That quote aged well. About 4 and a half weeks later, the Rams got throttled 30-3 at Candlestick Park in the NFC Championship game.

he said that because they're huge division rivals. and up to that point in their history, the Rams had gotten the better of SF in their head to heads. L.A was always a tough out for SF

I had Rams season tickets from '86-'94. This was a huge game. Traffic was jammed.This game without a doubt the toughest loss of all. Even worse than losing to New England in '86 on a "Hail Mary" with :00 time left. Jim Everett's debut softened that blow. After it was over, I sat there stunned, not believing it. The Rams dominated the 49ers for more than 3Qs. So much so nearly all the 20K 49ers fans had left in humiliating fashion. One guy in our section stayed but was convinced to turn his sweatshirt inside out. The TO at the 1 yd. line on a botched snap when they were about to make it 34-17 with 9 mins. was the turning point. A few years later Jim Burt admitted laying a big loogey on the ball just before that play. Smith's snap never made it off the ground. By rule the play never started but no official is ever going to see that. Up 10 you can't turn the ball over 2x in the 4thQ, miss tackles and allow 90 YAC on one play. In the end this loss meant nothing to the Rams because they di get another shot in the NFC Chmp. Game. That one didn't go so well either. Anyone notice Rams LB Mike Wilcher #54 offside on Leroy Irvin's interception? That miss was fairly obvious (24:35)

As a Niner fan, shout to the 89 Rams. They are one of the better teams no one remembers. They had already beat the Niners at the Stick and dominated large parts of this game but had major stints of bad luck to lose the game. They beat a good Giants team in NY to advance in the playoffs. In the NFC CG, I was actually worried about them because of the two previous meetings. Taylor saved the Niners this game and changed the season for both teams.

[@williamca7067]

As a Rams fan this was a killer plain and simple … A bad snap by a veteran center Smith … The game is over … It was an incredible run by the Rams to take on the whole East Coast even the last game of the season against New England in freezing weather to come from behind to win in overtime … When they lost to the 49ers in the championship game they were never the same

When the Rams would beat the 49ers in the 80s it was like a playoff win for them and their fans because the 49ers were the juggernaut. When the 49ers would beat them it was just another game.

How is this the 20th year of MNF and the first Monday Night game was September 1970 ??

[@AZDC99]

You can't be that stupid. You must be trolling us

[@jayzachary9709]

Well explain it genius??

[@SECRETARIATguy224]

@@jayzachary9709 1970 to 1989 is 20 seasons. Count them on your fingers and toes. Walter Payton played from the 1975 season until the 1987 season. That's 13 seasons, not 12. So, to review, the 1989 season was the 20th season of Monday Night Football.

Best regular season 49er game ever. Cofer the Choker was showing signs of future problems. Single handily kept Niners out of the 91 playoffs.

[@jasonpdsi]

If there had been a two point conversion in 1989-1993, Cofer would have never seen the field

[@benthekeeshond545]

Snake, Steve Young didn't do good for the 49ers either. Steve Bono won most of the games. If the 49ers got into the postseason, they would have won that SB instead of Washington.

@@benthekeeshond545 Get some respect FOR the Redskins. It's such a cheap answer, YOURS, but the fact IS that we won three Super Bowls, and some of you guys just can't deal with it. It's not my fault you couldn't beat the Vikings, which we did TWICE that year

[@benthekeeshond545]

@@AZDC99 Just saying but not disrespect the Redskins. I think the 1990 season without Joe Montana, the 49ers missed the playoffs altogether. The Vikings won against the 49ers in the year 1987. Redskins, the 2nd best team in the 1980s.

All game the trio in the booth extolling the great Jim Everett. however from this game forward Everetts career has peaked and contrary to the observations of michaels and gifford jims career will never achieve anything meaningful and he will be out of football in a few years.
