Best win in Charger history to this day.
Junior Seau was an absolute MONSTER!!!My Lord was he good,RIP.....This coming from a Steelers fan
Best usc defender?
RIP Seau and Greene
True! I loved Seau's intensity
RESPECT ✊! Thank you Steeler Nation!
Junior Seau took a average Chargers defense & raised 🤚 it al least one level.
RIP Mr. Enberg. You were a broadcasting legend and will forever be missed.
yes sir and Junior.
Enberg and Trumphy were the sound of the AFC.
Always liked Don Criqui the best. But Enberg and Charlie Jones were great too
He was a SDn and a true fan of team....
JUNIOR SEAU
I've always respected the Steelers. But they got what they deserved this game. They were making rap videos and pretty much guaranteeing they were gonna just roll over the Chargers without a contest. I listened to this entire game on my Walkman at work as a 21 year old and I was stunned and amazed at the Chargers performance. Humphries to Martin!
Favorite Charger game of all time! remember this victory as if it were yesterday. Still remember 65,000 of us going to old Jack Murpy stadium to welcome our heroes home. Great memories! I was 15 yrs old.
I was there!! Your right, great memories
We will never see that ever again
man i was 12 when the chargers moved to LA. I wish i grew up watching this chargers team i heard a lot of great stories from my dad and grandpa. Now the chargers can barely make the playoffs haha
This was a pretty solid Chargers teams, it's just so sad though that many players on this team ended up dying so young: Seau, linebackers Lew Bush, David Griggs & Doug miller, backup running back Rodney Culver, defensive end Chris Mims, defensive tackle Shawn lee, and backup center Curtis Whitley. That's a lot of individuals for one team.
Damn is that the most from a team from the 80s and 90s?
Did they get the COVID vaccine?
RIP Junior Sean. He had so much passion for the game and ultimately paid his life because of it. One of the greatest ILBs of all time.
Remi Chloe thank you🤣🤣🤣🤣
RIP jr seau a goat
@@juniorarellano11 that's disrespectful
Amen...he was a warrior. I was a huge Elway fan, and some of the defensive players I grew to respect the most were his division rivals...Derrick Thomas and Neil Smith, for example...but there was nobody I respected more than Seau...That was a MAN.
RIP Seau ⚡️
John Langit nuuuuu
Those Pacific Islanders... watch Vita Vea
Junior Seau was basically the Ray Lewis of this era..MANUIA LAU MALAGA USO.
Hakuna matata
Without the Superbowl victory
@@thomassalas5191 Thanks Captain Obvious
@@thomassalas5191 more than you ever did..
Everyone says RIP Junior Seau...but RIP David Griggs (#92 for San Diego). He died before training camp just 5 months after this game. Was just 28 years old
No one cares Manu.
I remember it was a plane crash
@@marquettejones1087 That was Rodney Culver, the RB for the Chargers on that same team. He died in a plane crash in May of 96. Griggs died in a car accident in 95.
@@Riles3152Chris Mims was a friend of mine who we’ve also lost. 😞
Junior Seau!!! guy was such a skilled player
acquired immunity He should have gotten a super bowl. Sad that he didnt
Rest in Peace Junior. The man deserved a super bowl by the way he played
Almost got one as a Patriot in 07'
G0Chiefs Yeah. Him and Rodney were finally united again, but tyree had to mess up someones destiny.
+The Real Julian Edelman I was cheering for the patriots that Super Bowl even though they broke my heart cause I knew seau deserved it badly the last thing that was left in his resume. RIP
The Real Julian Edelman IM STILL ALIVE😆😆
He was one of the best tackling 10-15 yards down field. Was challenged in reading and stopping plays, many times because he would gamble on the play call. But had great pursuit skills after the other team got a nice gain.
I remember this. As a long time Charger fan it was the greatest game ever.
R.I.P. to our City’s own Hall of Fame Hero Junior Seau! OCEANSIDE will always love you!!!
All of San Diego will always love him! I've got a picture of him on my wall in my room and a magnet on the fridge
@@anthonymonterosso7472 respect ✊! Eastside Posole Town to be specific, is where the Seau’s raised the Family…I’m proud for my County but extra proud of my little neighborhood city. Like Tony Gwynn being actually from Long Beach, they got love for him too even though they are mostly dodgers fans.
Oceanside-San Diego all love ❤️🤍💙💯🍻
@@addicted2fishing119 if anyone deserved a ring, it was Seau, he played with do much passion.
I was actually fortunate enough to be at the Chargers game they retired his number and I saw them raise the giant stadium flag with his number on it. It's too bad The Q/Murph is no longer there
@@anthonymonterosso7472 agreed ‼️
Can you believe he was the quarterback and played basketball for Oceanside High School? Both teams were CIF Champions

Miss my San Diego Super Chargers 😭
Such a gutsy team, personified by QB and coach. Rivers has Humphries' fire, I wish he had a coach like Bobby Ross now.
Bill Cowher lost 4 AFC championship games at home, ironically enough, the only time he won the SB the Steelers became the first 6 seed to win 3 road games on the way to winning his only Super Bowl
thanks to the refs though vs seattle.
Who's hating, just stating facts and I'd say definitely better than Tomlin is a reach, Tomlin has a higher regular season wining%, they both have been to 2 SBs and both went 1-1, slight edge to Tomlin in my book
Luke Hartman 1) he’s not “hating”, he’s “stating”. As in, stating facts.
2) Cowher is not better than Tomlin, by any measure.
Tomlin still hadn’t had a losing season.
cityofchamps66 You definitely weren’t “hating”
Just stating facts.
He nearly lost a 5th to the Colts and 'Captain Comeback' Jim Harbaugh the next season.
I'd been waiting for THIS moment since November 18th,1979,the day I BECAME a Chargers fan,when Fouts,Jefferson,Linden King,Louie Kelcher,Fred Dean,Glen Edwards,Kellen Winslow and the rest of the Chargers HUMILIATED the world champion(and my older brothers vaunted"unbeatable"team)Steelers 35-7 at the"Murph"!! Dan Fouts became my childhood HERO(and basically still IS)that magic Sunday afternoon!! I own a Dan Fouts throwback jersey that I wear as proudly as a KING wears his royal mantle,to THIS day!! Got throwbacks of Dean,Winslow,Kelcher Jefferson AND Chandler!! Air Coryell for life!!
Junior Seau one hell of a linebacker rest in peace
Who else wished the bolts kept this uniforms?
Vladimir Marley me I love the design of the helmet
Yellow face masks in 2019.
Fred Thompson yeah and powder blue as primary. It doesnt get better
@@user-co1gi7yd2r And GO BACK. to the origional " Lightning bolt" on the sleves & pants. And get NIKE out of uniform designs. No imagination NIKE HAS. Ruined the Jacksonville Jaguars look. We need to go back to our original look.
Fred Thompson i like this powder blue and yellow mask combo. Pants too but sure old school sleeves were better to me
As a diehard Steelers fan...94 was my favorite team...if someone told me
Foster never played for Pitt again and never played for anyone.
Eric Green never played for Pitt again and barely played after 94
O Donnell would have a huge 95 season..better than any expectations...marred by a bad Super Bowl. And left Pitt after 95 and barely played.
The great Rod Woodson would tear his ACL in the 95 opener and never be close to the same player.
The great Greg Lloyd would tear his knee in the 96 opener and never be close to the same player.
Greene and Searcy gone after 95 as Pitt struggled w stadium revenue. Chad Brown gone after 96...
And three rivers gone...the new stadium just isn't the same.
Although the 1995 team made the Super Bowl, this was their best team. They just got the unlucky breaks in the second half.
Throwing over 50 times is a recipe for losing. Dang near every time
Rip Seau.You were the most underrated linebacker.
Underrated everyone acknowledges how great he was
One of the more underrated upsets of all time!
Seau and Natrone Means Business.
Good stuff.
To the players no longer with us. Chargers: LB Junior Seau (suicide due to brain trauma), LB David Griggs (car accident), RB Rodney Culver (plane crash), LB Doug Miller (struck by lightning), C Curtis Whitley (drug overdose), DE Chris Mims (heart failure), DL Shawn Lee (heart attack), and LB Lewis Bush (heart attack). Steelers: OL Justin Strelzynk (suicide due to brain trauma). Just a tragic prologue to what was a classic game.
damn...wtf
My God
wonder if steroids played a part in the heart attacks? Athletes are supposed to be healthy but not football players apparently
Struck by lighting ? That’s a chargers way to go out
So sad for the Chargers that so many players died on this 1994 Super Bowl team
Same thing kinda happened to the 1984 Padres...the San Diego Curse
Like who?? (besides Seau) just curious
@@breiter4697
1 - Rodney Culver - Killed in Airplane crash
2 - Doug Miller - Killed when he was struck by lightning, get this, TWICE (fact that he played for the Bolts makes this one of the most ironic deaths of all time)
3 - Lew Bush - Died of a Heart Attack
4 - Shawn Lee - Died of a Heart Attack
5 - Chris Mims - Died of an enlarged heart
6 - Curtis Whitley - Died from a drug overdose
7 - David Griggs - Killed in a car crash
8 - Junior Seau - self inflicted gunshot wound
@@yaahlabanyamyan144 Wow, that does seem like a curse. Thanks
@@yaahlabanyamyan144
3, 4, & 5 were natural. We all will die eventually. Junior Seau was a real nice guy and why he did that????? Poor Doug Miller.
This was my first year as a Steeler fan...I was 8, cried my eyes out at the end.
almost mines too
#steelernation #steelersstairwaytoseven
Best game moment by far...4th and goal....1:08 to play....Steelers on the 2yd line....and Coach Cowher is laughing on the sidelines during the timeout. Cowher was ALL passion, loved his players, loved the game. I'm a long, long long time Pats fan, and I miss Bill Cowher
Yeah but he shouldn't have been laughing when his team was being completely taken to task ... and ended up losing.
He went in to this game waaayy overconfident.
One of the Chargers starting offensive linemen that year Joe Cocozzo is from my hometown of Mechanicville, NY. He was a rookie that year I believe
Steelers made the AFC title game in 1974, 1984, 1994, and 2004. The only other team do make a conference title game every 10 years like that for four consecutive decades was the Raiders (1970, 1980, 1990, 2000). Speaks to how good an organization is to be that highly competitive across four eras of football.
But New England has only been good since Brady came, Steelers have been good for years and years.
Steelers had 0 super bowls in the 80's and 90's. They had a dynasty in the 70's and are pretty good now and they choked a lot in the 90's and 2000's AFC championship games.
Patriots are close 1985, 1996, 2006, 2016
That is impressive. But for you Steelers fans you should be happy the Steelers did not win the 84' AFC Title and that 94' AFC title because they would have lost both those Super Bowls to the 49ers.
Manu Ginobilis Bald Spot ravens have been to 4 in 17 years...
Man Seau played his heart out this game. RIP
Met a guy who was on this Charger team. He said it was the toughest game he ever played in. After the game about half the team was in the training room.
He admitted the 49ers beat them fair and square in the SB, but said the game would not have been an essential blowout if they hadn’t been so banged up and worn out.
Still a great, great win for the Chargers this AFC championship. Few people expected them to win, but they gritted this out.
The Super Bowl was going to be a blowout no matter what. The 49ers were just a lot better. This was a tough game, but so was the NFC Championship, and the 49ers had to beat the 2-time defending champs; they were physically and emotionally beat up too.
@Tyrannis 07 I think you are pretty much right. The NFC was simply better during those years. Game _might_ have been 42-31, instead of 49-26 if the Chargers weren't as worn out. SF was just better. No one in their right mind thinks the Chargers were better. No way.
No one was beating the 49ers that year. They were a F'N machine. And the Chargers had two weeks to rest up and recover.
Kid 😂😂 49ers would won anyways
As much as I do enjoy and thank the NFL for uploading these full games, I do wish they uploaded more full games than they are. It really doesn't make much sense to have all that game footage collecting dust.
one of the Top 5 greatest Chargers victories.
was so satisfying to beat the steelers again that season!
Should of won in 2006
Two of the best announcers
Chargers chose the wrong year to go to the Super Bowl.
we was gonna have 2 straight pittvsdal sb's instead.
If marlon mcree dropt that pass, instead of picking it off in 06. They woulda beat the colts easily. Then beat da bears easily!!
Ikr lol they got waxed
The Chargers would gladly the 1994 Super Bowl for the 2006 Super Bowl!
They wouldve gotten blown out by any of the NFC's best teams..... Dallas, Green Bay, or San Fran. Also any of the Bills 1990-93 AFC Championship teams would've destroyed this Chargers team. Probably one of the worst teams ever to make it to the Super Bowl...at least that I've seen in my lifetime
This was literally 25 years ago... Man I'm old.
It will be 25 years soon next year.
26 years now
I turned 4 in November 94 so i was like 3 during this game
One of the best AFC Championship games ever.. The drama was so tight, any play would make or break a win or loss.. Also Natrone s 1rst down conversion running over 2 defenders, was one of the great runs Means had ever..
I pray to god that the chargers will win a super bowl before I die. I was born in 1998 so I wasn't able to see this game but I want to see my team at least win one before I die
erik delgado I got my wish last year. been waiting since 2005
Not going to happen sorry we probably die from a meteor before they get there
*2008...they didn't come close to a title in '09...got crushed by the Saints in the Divisional round..
erik delgado I'm an Eagles fan so same
+Cat Mario well technically in Feb '09, right? I like your deep NFL knowledge tho!
As a life time Steelers fan since the 70s this games ending was painful 😣
We lost our NFL team 😢
I managed to watch the game at work on a 5” B&W tv from radio shack…… THE GREATEST GAME IN CHARGERS HISTORY EVER! RIP USO
still remember this sunday, it was a great one. #55
This game hurt, but it didn't really matter who won this game. Nothing was going to stop the 49ers in 1994.
The real Super Bowl was played in San Francisco later that day. Once San Fran beat Dallas, it was a total formality.
One of the biggest chokes in AFC history.
@@capswole81 it doesn't matter. I think the 49'ners or Cowboys would've killed any team from the AFC. Buffalo was the dynasty in the AFC back then and the Redskins and Cowboys blew them out. It was no different this year and I wanted the Steelers to win this game. Super bowl XXIX was closer than it was. The 49'ners took their starters out by the 4th quarter.
Wrong
I kind of disagree with you. In 1994, the Steelers had the number two defense in the league in both points allowed and yards allowed. Their pass defense was third in yards allowed and first in touchdowns allowed. Steve Young would not have had six touchdown passes against the Steelers defense. Unfortunately, their offense wasn't anything to write home about so San Francisco would still likely win.
That sounds about right. However, I believe Pittsburgh would have made it a good game. San Diego was complerely overmatched. How in the hell did they win this game?!
I am glad Seau was able to experience the SB experience with the Chargers :) Sadly, even with NE, he didnt get a ring.
Jesús Lozano As a Chargers fan, I'm glad he didn't get a ring with the Patriots. He had a big retirement ceremony with the Chargers, and then a few days later, he goes and signs with the Patriots.
Jose Mercedes No, I held nothing against Rodney. I was upset at Seau for having a huge retirement ceremony here and then going and signing with the Cheatriots.
And Rodney's release had more to do with AJ Smith than Marty. AJ was a despicable human being who hated Marty and made roster decisions without consulting with Marty at all.
Well i guess that is true, but i will say that as pats fan that 2006 chargers team was the best i have ever seen and that playoff game, was probably so bad, like throwing 3 interceptions was bad, but the way the chargers imploded and Marty did not do such controlling his players and stupid turnovers and penalties and dumb playing by Marty on that 4th and 10 to go for it.
Jose Mercedes I agree, that 2006 Chargers team was the best team we've ever had. They definitely should have beaten NE that day. But it's hard for me to put the blame at Marty's feet. Yes, the 4th and 11 decision was not wise, however the Chargers still would have won had it not been for Eric Parker and Marlon McCree fumbling the ball. It's hard for me to blame an HC for fumbles.
We miss you like crazy Bolts. Come home soon! :(
A Great Game, R.I.P. Junior Seau #55, FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!
i was 20 years old this broke my heart
This was a 2nd place game with that loaded 49ers team that won

please nfl,do not spoil who is going to win AT THE TITLE, a lot of new ,non americans football fans wants to watch game without knowing who is going to win ! i didnt watch many of your videos because you spoiled the result !!!
NFL yyy
salum75 watch the 94 divisional game sd vs mia for one of the best big man runs ever for a td. means runs over 6 guys and the referee and rips his jersey with everyone ending up on the ground while means has 2 guys on his back he drags the last 6 yards
I watched this game anyone that wants to see how one person single handedly took over a game should watch junior seau was unbelievable best chargers game period.
Thank you for posting this 👍
I honestly don't watch sports anymore, but looking back at this game reminds me of why I used to. Chargers fan through and through RIP Junior the best ever do it
I got so drunk watching this game. 40 people crammed in a living room losing our minds. We drove to the stadium to greet them when they returned. Greatest Chargers game ever.
Tony Martin is an underappreciated receiver.
Steelers sure had their chances to win this game. Seau played 1 helluva game.
Neil O'donnell belongs on the Cowboy's Ring of Honor
RIP SD Chargers.
Paul B. they belong to SD not to LA
I can't believe they uproot a team like the Chargers. Was their attendance low or something.
@@PerpetualArt NO the owner was greedy and wanted a new stadium but didn't get it so he took the team to LA.
Were back as the LA chargers. Super bowl here we come
RIP David Griggs #92 for SD and Junior Seau #55
I was at my house watching this with my good luck Steeler helmet on TV as i always did. This had to be the most crushing Steeler playoff loss ever. I was so stunned. And there would be some crushing losses in next few years too.
RIP Members of the 1994 San Diego Chargers :
1 - Rodney Culver - Killed in Airplane crash
2 - Doug Miller - Killed when he was struck by lightning, get this, TWICE (fact that he played for the Bolts makes this one of the most ironic deaths of all time)
3 - Lew Bush - Died of a Heart Attack

5 - Chris Mims - Died of an enlarged heart
6 - Curtis Whitley - Died from a drug overdose
7 - David Griggs - Killed in a car crash
8 - Junior Seau - self inflicted gunshot wound

"Everyone into the pattern...Humphries back...going long...caught Tony Martin." Hacksaw Hamilton, Good Night Now Steeler Fan!
san diego chargers for life boltup
im a steelers fan but even if we got pass SD
..there was no way we were gonna stop 49ers
I still can’t believe Pittsburgh lost that game. They literally lost because they gave up two big plays, and they didn’t convert in the red zone. A Pittsburgh/San Francisco Super Bowl would have been far more entertaining than the one we got. I still think San Francisco would have won, but I don’t think Pittsburgh would’ve gotten housed like the Chargers did…
Great game. I remember watching this live. RIP Jr. Seau & David Griggs.
Dennis Gibson you legend.
Highest quality middle finger in sports history...he got just enough to break up that pass!
These were our better days, it's very hard being a Chargers fan in 2016 smh #BoltUp
#doltup
Such an exciting game. Pittsburgh was by far a better team but San Diego had the better plan. Has there ever been a better pair of championship games than 1994?
I think the Steelers were plagued with overconfidence. They booked a recording studio to make a rap video the week of this game. "I hear they're selling that video for half price now," from a Chargers player after the game.
I remember being so pist when san Diego won as they beat my dolphins in the divisional round. But I miss this football the old stadiums the uniforms even the refs uniforms, but it was football at its best and I miss starter apparel
I agree, the stadiums were iconic.. & the unis were both classic & well designed back then.
I watched this game live as a young kid. I remember this being the first time a sporting event really affected me. I was devastated the Steelers lost this game. I was too young to really be that upset over the 92 NL championship series vs the braves. But I distinctly remember this game really hurting. The first of many heart breaks for this Steelers team until they finally got a Superbowl in 05. For a time there I just thought we would be tortured into watching great Steelers teams constantly falling short in games they probably should have won. Thank God for Ben haha.
This didn't hit me until after the Super Bowl because I was more focused on the 9ers beating the Cowboys. I really became die hard for the Steelers after this game.
I remember listening to the game on the AFRTS radio broadcast out in the Persian Gulf. I wished I could have been home in San Diego to watch it with my family but I was happy the Chargers won.
PIT choked big time in this one, a mark of Bill Cowher and Marty Schottenheimer coached teams. They were king of the 10-6/11-5 record, then get bounced in the first or second round.
Perfectly summed up
Still bizarre that Pittsburgh lost this game. Really just a couple plays where they didn't own it. And both of those plays were 43-yard TDs. O'Donnell actually played fairly well, but the play-calling became uninspired when they needed it most. Also, Seau was a BEAST.
1:51:44 Rookie Rodney Harrison celebrating.
Dam. The last time I saw WR Tony Martin was at my aunt house in Miami August 1990. We were watching a Broncos pre season game and then New Orleans Saints WR Brett Perriman came by.
I'm a chargers fan so yay!
as a Steelers fan, this was the most gut-wrenching devastating loss I can remember. Heavy favorite at home, have a lead in the second half that dwindles away, tantalizing late game hope, and that devastating goal line stand.
I'm not saying this Steelers squad would have beaten that stacked 49ers team (NFC Championship game was probably the de facto Super Bowl), but it doesn't make this loss hurt any less.
A hard fought AFC Championship game that year it was... Brutal shots Humphries and O'Donnell took.. The 49ers were stacked that year. It would of been a daunting task whoever had to face them.
Was working the day this was broadcast. Only now watching it 26 years later. This '94 Steelers defense was suffocating, but apprently was prone to lapses. Chargers capitalized brilliantly on those few opportunities. Kudos to them. Although I believe the Steelers would have fared better against Young & co.
All Neil O'Donnell had to do was step into that last pass and fire it to B. Foster and its a T.D, instead he feels the rush punks out and lets it go off his back foot, batted down game over. For me personally the most heartbreaking Steeler loss in my life.
Similar finish in SB-49..Seahawks near the goal line looking to re gain the lead,only to turn the ball over...
This was an epic punk job the Chargers pulled off here back in Jan 1995...whats hilarious is the whole week prior to this game Steelers fans were running their BIG mouths on sports talk radio sayin..."You guys dont have a chance..warm weather team comin into our house in the cold weather..blah..blah..blah..and I almost forgot..Steelers were so confident they were gonna have a cakewalk..they made some lame ass video about them goin to the Super Bowl...thats what I heard anyway..
lollol..good one..:>D
gdub454: I remember after the Chargers won this game, I went to the stadium with my Dad later that night to welcome the team home. The stadium was PACKED with 70,000 people. While we were waiting for the team to arrive, they played footage of the Steelers bragging about their Super Bowl plans on the Jumbotron, lol.
Funny, the Steelers did something similar this past 2017 playoff season. They so overconfident that they were going to meet New England in the AFC Championship, that they forgot all about Jacksonville and their monster D. Of course The Jags stomped the Steelers in the Divisional round.
They got creamed in the super bowl next year too! Cowher needed help to win in 2005! Very questionable calls by the officials !
@@braddvaughn6076 To say the least.
*Dennis Gibson put defense on us near the goal line he had 2 pass deflections and one was the game winner*
No longer a Charger fan but i remember running outside screaming!!!!
Kelli Gutierrez same here I tried to remain a fan but I still can't get rid of the anger about how the Chargers left my hometown San Diego for here (Los Angeles)
I'm over it. I still follow them, but I get the anger. I'm still a fan of the team, but have never been a fan of the owners.
I quit watching the NFL can't root for a L.A team sorry.
I was 10 years old when this game first happened. I was so heartbroken by the loss. But no matter who won, San Francisco was gonna roll in the Super Bowl.
Steelers overlooked this game they should have won this superbowl that year this team was stacked
No the 49ers where to good no way in hell the Steelers would beat them
Watching Junior Seau play linebacker reminds me of how I played linebacker...
gsactotube + 😂🤣😂
DOMINANT = SEAU (SAY-OW!)
WOW the 43 min mark. So close to downing that punt!! Than #20 ran for a good gain to get SD near mid field. Bigg momentum shift!! ~Brian

It’s quite incredible that SD won both playoff games to get to the SB with very uninspiring pass offense and defensive statistics in wi the game. The crazy dream became the completely expected nightmare when the faced a loaded SF 49ers team in two weeks in the SB.
1:39:45 2nd most important play in SD Charger History. 1:50:00 MOST important play in SD Charger History !
Thanks
