  • 30 years later, 2 more catches were made in Candlestick. Young to Owens, and smith to Davis

  • this happened on my birthday, and im a giants fan (:

  • Don't understand why this is called "the catch". Looks incredibly unspectacular.

  • Comment removed

  • @tmac20031 maybe its for the fact that the cowboys were dominant for years before the no named 49ers came out and beat "Americas Team" which no one believed they could. Not to mention this catch was the start of one of the best franchise's in NFL history...hope this explains a lil.

  • nice clip .. i like it .. thanks for sharing

  • It's said that as Ed too tall jones hit Joe he said you just beat Americas team and Joe reply's "then you can sit at home and watch the SB with the rest of America" from Lott and the Defense loved Joe he was reported to be one of the funniest guys on the team. It's said even Charles Haley like him.

  • I can't believe they recreated that in suits. And dress shoes too? Anyway it's an overrated play. Montana was immortal even then.

  • I'm trying to look for the betamax tape that my father recorded of this game. I did find a rerun tape

  • the waterboy:" Joe montana was a quarterback you idiot" "i meant joe montamia"

  • Chris had multiracial parents up until 0:07

  • Four Super Bowls, four wins, eleven touchdowns, zero interceptions.

  • i think aikman to harper from the '92 championship game should be celebrated just like montana to clark. the cowboys had a 4-point lead with 4 minutes to play but the niners had the momentum. most coaches would have played it conservatively and tried to run the ball and run time off the clock, but jimmy johnson's mindset was "FUCK THAT, I WANT POINTS!" the 70-yard pass to harper that set up the clinching TD started a new dynasty. it should be called, "The catch and run."

  • it would have been so funny if dwight clark would have dropped the pass from montana in the re-enactment

  • End of one dynasty , start of another.

  • End of one dynasty , start of another.

  • If this play happened today, after the game somehow all of the cameras would be on Jerry Jones.

  • joe, you just beat america's team... well you can sit at home with the rest of america and watch the super bowl

  • that was a great era, they were actually allowed to play physical style football back then, sorry brady, lol montana, bradshaw, elway, they succeeded without rule changes, now if you look at a qb wrong its 15 yards or a fine or suspension!!!!

  • @soycd666: Actually, Montana did benefit from rule changes. The 1978 rule changes, to be exact. Those changes made it more possible for a cheesy system such as the Wuss Coast Offense to thrive.

  • @sptrfn

    Montana and every QB since the 1980's benefited from the rule changes since every team adopted the 49ers WCO philosophy of timing patters. You still had dominant defenses around that time. Defenses evolve as well with the 3-4 and zone blitz. They couldnt touch a Wr after 5 yards anymore, so they would disguise who is covering who with a zone coverage. Defenses had to become fasters and more complex which made the game evolve. Every team use a WCO now, and every team uses a zone blitz

  • @YBRR88: A lot of teams use zone blitz, but I don't think that everyone uses the WCO now.

  • @sptrfn

    Uh huh, ok.............Eagles, Browns, Packers, Redskins, 49ers, Seahawks, Bengals, Rams last year, Vikings, Texans, Jack Del Rio(Jaguars) and Mike Smith(Falcons) came from the B.Walsh coaching tree. So thats almost half of the NFL running a form of the WCO. They dont say the 49ers changed the NFL for nothing....

    Timed precison passing has become a standard in football. Every team in the NFL has timed precision passes in their playbooks, but only half use a true WCO formations.

  • Fuck all you Cowgirl fans your team is sorry as fuck

  • I am a die hard 49er fan. Yes, I'm aware of how much we sucked this year.

  • Tom Brady was at this game.....

  • so was Tom Brady when he was 7 lol !

  • ah faggots talking shit down there 49ers r one of the greatest teams in nfl history they have a great past and will have a great future even if were not as good as the patroits or jets we still always have great players every year starting from montana,rice,clark,young,owens­,garcia,gore,davis and many more so fuck off 49ers all day everyday

  • @imshowtime316 OH WAAAAAAH... would you like a little cheese with that whine!!!

    Can't tell if you are a fan or not??? you speak in a very confusing manner...

    Joe Montana was the best ever, and so were the guys on that team of the 80's now a days players do not have the heart, they phone it in, it's sad.

  • Right when I saw that it said T-mac had 44 pts at 1:34 I knew this video was old

  • Feathered hairdos on dudes in the early 80's.......LOL......ah well it was a glorious time for QB glory --- Montana, Marino, Elway, Theismann, Simms, Kosar, etc

  • @Hunkola

    Kenny O'Brien

  • St. Joe

  • 1:05 jizzzzzzzz

  • Chris Berman remembers the catch...LOL. That's an understatement. Doesn't he always bring up those damn 49ers in his telecasts? He can't forget. Let it go Berman and step into the present, your team is horrible this year!

  • @mikeycereal

    His team is the Bills, you dolt.

  • I'm a Cowboys fan, and that was amazing.

  • 7 SAD COWBOYS DISLIKE THIS VIDEO

  • When I move....You move. The greatest football organization of all time. The facts dont lie. I was surprised the Steelers wwere only third. Packers of the 60s were a distant second. GO NINERS!

  • The throw!

  • it was a good throw and excellent catch but the most overrated play fuckn ever

  • fuck espn

  • @dolphinbuc Why, were you Fired from ESPN?

  • @gfscarface13 Please....they wouldn't hire me and I wouldn't work for them.They've lost their soul.

  • @dolphinbuc Than why do you say Fuck the 4 Letter Network?

    What they do, how did they lose their soul?

  • @gfscarface13 If you notice over the years ESPN has turned into Hollywood Access "The sports edition". I used to get real good info from them,but their multiple analysts take up too much time,and it looks like they go more for sensationalism and hype to advertise their games.ESPN is now BSPN! That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

  • @dolphinbuc Like the Lebron James situation "the desicion"

    That was lame. But give me some examples to prove your case. Thanks.

  • Check out Charlie Waters just standing in the end zone while the ball is in the air.

  • holy hell, 15-1

    damn, NFC owned the afc hard

  • Comment removed

  • Montana has "just" 4 rings. Steve Young won the fifth title for the 49ers. Nevertheless, Montana is the greatest when it counts most.

  • You're right, my mistake, but my point's been made, Payton will get a second.

  • @gfscarface13 sry dickface0, but STEELERS are the Greatest NFL Sports Franchise. And the Saints are getin' SB-XLIV. but the "Catch" and 4 Rings make Joe Montana probably the Greatest QB in NFL history (so far). gotta admit, the '9ers were a helluva dynasty.

  • Joe Montana is the Greatest Winning QB in the playoffs but I dont he's the Greatest QB ever.

    You have to look at the whole picture, there are other QB's who are better than Joe Montana. Everyone has their opinion and niners of course have a bias opinion.

  • @elmalacopa No what Bitch?

  • @gfscarface13 It was just an overall reply to the flurry of dumb comments you have typed on this video. There is so much stupidity on your behalf that all I had to say was "NO". Anyways, I won't respond back to you anymore so don't even bother.

  • @elmalacopa What comments didn't you like?

  • At 1:08, Joe Montana's smile is EPIC!!!

    That is the very smile of success...

  • Joe Montana looks like Murphy from Robocop.

  • ahha look at #11 or 71 just standing there like "dammit shit!" at 0:16

  • lol nah #11 is like fuck my life

    how should i kill myself

  • fuck the cowboys, there over rated and tony homo sucks

  • yea i kno we have terrible o-line and a shit ass quarterback but players like joe montana, steve young, jerry rice, ronnie lott, roger craig, etc dont get to play forever. btw how could dallas almost lose to washington? and u say we suck

  • A Win is a Win. Cowboys in First Place

  • They still suck. Just remember, November 15, 2009

  • COWBOYS STILL OWN

  • yea......."get" owned btw did u watch the Giants-Dallas game this past sunday?

  • Cowboys in First Place. 49ers had to beat seattle but lost and not in Playoffs picture, so you shouldn't talk.

  • And what if the Cowgirls go into the playoffs? They won't do anything

  • We'll see what happens you Big Pussy.

  • Super Bowl XLIV New Orleans Saints vs Indianapolis Colts

  • SuperBowl XLIV Dallas Over New England

  • Fuck you sewer ratas.

  • What happened to your cowboys, I know why you a cowboys fan, porque te gusta dalas, dalas nalgas puto!

  • You own my dick faggot and the only wetback beaner taco is your moms pussy. HA! fuck sewer ratas. Dalas nalgas, puto. Y VIVA MEXICO CABRONES.

  • @ mara4ce

    HaHa Faggot you removed your Comment saying Montana won 5 Rings when clearly everybody knows he won 4 Rings. Everybody can see that the guy corrected you and you Removed it. LMFAO!!!

    HaHaHaHaHaHa, You call yourself a Niners fan BUT you didn't know that Montana won 4 rings, not 5.

    Sounds like you are a Bandwagoner!!!!!!!

  • Bandwagon mis huevos, la cague, it's a simple mistake estaba bien marijuano! What's your excuse for being a butt fucking, gaylord piece of shit peceta.

  • @gfscarface13 Your QB is Mexican tho

    FAIL

  • @reliantjqq Romo is half mexican.

  • ha!

  • @ShadyCaveman568........did you watch the Dallas-Saints yesterday?

    only team left undefeated now is colts!!

  • If they own why haven't they won a playoff game since 1996 HAHA!!!!!

  • who better than joe at that moment

    put anybody in that spot in that moment

    its probably only joe that could do as good

    as he did it at that time

  • is it wrong for a raider fan to go to liking the 49ers

    because i know more about the 49ers than the raiders and it has so much tradition

    thumps up or down

  • na it would be a smart move. Welcome to the 49er legacy.

  • niners niners niners!!!!!!!!!!!! by the way whose that other team??? bad defense

  • EXCELLENT !!!!!

  • nice catch lol

  • great moment in 49ers history - GO 49ERS!!!!!

  • Joe Cool

  • Don't hate .... best QB ever, period.

  • right try playing in montana's situation,just the pass rush coming in and he just throws it away and next thing you know,the Faithful's cheering

  • Clark was 6'4 and he had jump at his highest point to reach that reach, (plus stay in the endzone cuz he nearly out), and he was under a ton of pressure on him: if he drops it, dallas probably goes to another SB and the Niner's dynasty might never start. now was it the easiest catch ever?

  • They were such a great TEAM

    Ain't no I in this team.

    They were such good guys.

    Joe on his way, this day to become

    The Best Ever-Go Ninners!

  • fuck the afc

    it all about the NFC!!!!

  • Yeah that's why the AFC has won 9 of the last 12 Super Bowls.

  • That doesn't mean shit. The NFC was (and always will be) the better conference.

  • Teh NFC has the NFC West which has been the worst division in the NFL for the last 5 years.

    Also the AFC won 10 of the first 14 Post Merger SBs and 9 of the last 12.

    So since it's been AFC vs NFC in the SB the NFC has won 20 and the AFC has won 19.

    The first four games were before the merger but it would still only be NFC 22 AFC 21 if you count GB in 66/67 as NFC and Jets Chiefs as AFC in 68/69.

  • and remember,from the 1984-1996 seasons,the NFC team won those super bowls

  • Greatest play in franchise history!

  • fuck u man. the 9ers are on the rise... u watch give them 2 more years

  • @siwulat its been 2 years and they still suck dick

  • @LILitalianvinny fuck you dude, your just jealous cause the 49ers are better your fucking bad team, go away you asshole

  • @LILitalianvinny fuck you dude, your just jealous cause the 49ers are better your fucking bad team, go away you asshole they have 5 superbowl titles in 5 tries, how do the suck?

  • @drunker05 oh definetely , your prediction was right 2 years! lmfao nice try though you had one good era and thats all

  • @siwulat Lol I bet you wish you could take that back

  • I still don't see Alex Smith anywhere! Oh yeah, I saw him wheeling around Montana in his wheelchair!!

  • Alex Smith sucks ass

  • Best quarterback ever

  • *Great video but see "The Room" by Tommy Wiseau!AWESOME

    **DISCOVER "The Room MOVIE" by Tommy Wiseau! It's FUN!**

  • How about those CHOKIN' Cow girls this year. That's the present.

  • At least our number one pick doesn't choke it up in the playoffs like your boy Romo has twice in a row. Oh yeah btw, the niners have won at least one playoff game since our last trip to the Superbowl, those cowgirls are 0 - infinity since their last superbowl

  • They actually won a playoff game after their Super Bowl. You should probably do a little research before you spew out false info.

  • when was this playoff game the cowboys won since their last superbowl? I don't remember it for some reason...they havn't won a playoff game since they won their last superbowl which was 1996. maybe you should do some more research.

  • @dabig25 CHoking? the Niners have been the best example of Choking the past 20 Years. All that talent in the 90's & Only 1 Ring. CHOKER Steve Young.

    ALex smith? All time #1 Draft Pick BUST!!!

    LMFAO!!!

  • Think the cowboys have to worry bout their own team. We have nothing to lose right now because we have nowhere but up to go. The cowboys however are in a tailspin. TO is getting unhappy, we saw the true nature of Romo against philly. Have the cowboys gotten out of the first round of the playoffs once since Aikman retired? As for weakest division in the NFC, how'd the cards get into the superbowl then?

  • so how were the cowboys in the playoffs this year?

  • im bored on cam

    ANY GUYS UP? NV

  • this video was good

    i liked this video :) p8

  • I was in that end zone in the "cheap seats". The worst seat in the house turned out to be the best seat in NFL history.

  • Cool play.

  • damm look at all these haters especially the cowboys fans do u guys really think us niner fans give a shit about ur opinions and all the ppl tht r sayin they seen better catches who gives a shit they call this THE CATCH not urs

  • AMEN 849jet!! LMAO!! U rock bro!!

  • At :12 it looks like TE Charlie Young #86 was wide open..

  • I think Joe Montana's perfect 4 for 4 track record in Superbowls played is as equally impressive as Michael Jordan's 6 for 6 track record in NBA Finals series played.

  • true dat. 4 w/o a series is as hard as 6 w/ a series, right?

  • niners first to five superbowls only undefeated team in their superbowls. steelers lost in bill cowehers first superbowl. the cowboys lost superbowls the same the steelers were becoming a dynasty

  • so what? dallas holds the record in super bowl appearances and playoff games than any other team, regardless of their own five ''super bowls''.

  • Well then by your faulty logic, the Vikings should be considered more successful than the Bears. Vikings made it to four Superbowls and lost all of them. Bears made it to two SB and won one with that Great Bear defense of Richard Dent and Mike Singletary. And let's not forget the offensive magic of Willie Gault and "The Fridge". Yeah sure, Vikes certainly gets the nod there!

  • the ''vikings'' had a great defense which was the reason why they made it to ''four'' super bowls. the ''viking'' offense flunked the ''real'' test and failed to become champions, all ''four'' times. and besides, why in the hell are you talking about the vikings here? this video clip is about joe montana and the 49ers.

  • I wonder what that guy at 0:28-0:30 is doing these days

  • Its Richard Simmons

  • Hands down Montana was the best GB in history!!!!!!!!

  • the cowboys are just a team,you lost 3 superbowls,49ers none,5 superbowls wins,we are the best,always 49ers,baby,the greatest team ever.

  • 49ers. Greatest franchise of all time baby!!!

  • the cowboys are america's team because they have been the most successful team since the 60s

  • Not really. Teams play to win Superbowl's.

    Last I checked, Niners and Cowboys are tied with five, although the edge should be given to the Niners since they were the first to make it to five.

    Furthermore, the niners have the highest winning percentage in Superbowls (5-0).

    So sorry, but having all those 13-3 seasons but choking in the playoffs hardly makes you successful.

  • steelers have 5 superbowls too, and i think the packers have the most titles since the start of the nfl

  • no its a tie between the niners/steelers/cowboys... but the niners are the only undefeated 5 superbowl win team.

    the niners dont lose superbowls... plus we had probably 2 of the best quarterbacks ever

  • I'll agree with Montana. But Steve Young, not so much.

  • 49ers is one of the most storied brand in the sports !!!

  • 49ers baby

  • Damn. Bill walsh and joe montana, what more could you ask for right there. then you have jerry and ronnie and etc.

  • this and jackie smith dropping that pass are the worst momen in cowboys history

  • moments

  • Montana rocks. The 49ers rule 4ever.

  • I agree. Since the Niners were the first to win five SBs, they should be considered the greatest team in NFL history unless/until someone makes it to #6.

  • If the Cowboys and or/Steelers win #6, it does not make them the greatest team ever. That means Ben Roethlisberger and Hines Ward would have TWO titles. The greatest team was the 70's Steelers because they had so many players--22-- on one team that won four Super Bowls. The Niners (with 6) are the only other franchise

    who had players that won four SBs with one team.

  • dean readies will induct into the 2008 hall of fame. it will be 13th member HOF for 49ers. last one 12th was steve young. Rice, roger criag, and so on not yet in . 49ers sure has alot of HOF, probaly more then other team ! Go NIners

  • actually the bears and the packers have the most hall of famers

  • interesting what exact numbers for the bears and packers ?

  • funny cause they're like each others mean enemies haha

  • When I saw the games and the 49ers were lost the game with 2 minutes left in the last Quarter.

    Nothing to worry because Montana was in the controls.

  • cowboys suck monkey balls!(copy paste if you agree

  • Not only are the Cowboys asinine enough to call themselves "America's Team," but they're also asinine enough to claim they're "God's Favorite Team." When they say "Everything's bigger in Texas," they ESPECIALLY mean egos.

  • oh that was so sad i thought the cowboys gonna win that game

  • haha montana wouldnt throw nothing away when he saw someone open. he's joe cool. even 3 defenders cant stop him.

    joe montana = youre fucked

  • my husband is a die hard cowboys fan. he was in law school when this happened. to this day it still pisses him off. that and the name jackie smith. oh well. and i am a steelers fan.

  • America's team, my ass
