When did this game take place?

[radarlove007]

Didn't Harden give Largent a cheap shot earlier in that game? Steve got some pay back on that hit.

Great post. I remember watching this live and was amazed when it happened. Largent was such a great player.

@pontifexish I have no problem with Rice being the No.1 receiver. He worked hard. I'm just pointing out that we need to look at the supporting casts players have. They're different players. Both are great, terrific teammates, reliable, whatever compliment you have for them, they deserve it. And I think Montana and Rice made each other better. It goes both ways.

@DanVelinski I don't disagree with you, but I would argue that Rice made Joe Montana better and not the other way around. I have to give Rice the edge over Largent because both had great hands but Rice was the best at running after the catch.

That was a heck of a hit. As a Chiefs fan, it always feels good to see the Broncos get owned like this.

Steve Largent was indeed a Great and Amazing player!

@megatree51 I know. I've thought long and hard about this. Largent worked his butt off to overcome inferior help. Rice took advantage of a strong team and Bill Walsh's genius to become the most prolific pass-catcher ever. They're two very different players. Largent was deceptive, sure-handed, and tough. Rice was smooth, disciplined, and tough. Two great players whose styles were dictated by the teams they played for.

@DanVelinski yea but still man look at the qbs jim zorn or joe montanna

@megatree51 1.  I'm a big Largent fan. 2. He had 819 catches, not 200. 3. Largent played 14 seasons, not 13. 4. Rice had a higher rates of catches, yards, and TD's on a per game basis. Largent was great, and among great receivers, certainly had the least help. But Rice was statistically better, and not only because of how long he played. He broke Largent's TD record after seven or eight years in the league. Both a great receivers, but if I had to pick one, I would have to go with Rice.
