      Legendary RT Erik Williams got injured in a car accident that year and an inexperienced Larry Allen played in his place on a bad ankle. Made a huge difference in that game imo. With the early turnovers though, Dallas really screwed themselves, but they still made a great game out of it. Emmitt had the bad wheel too I believe. I think with an intact, healthy lineup, Dallas was a better team, but you gotta give it to the Niners, it really came together for them that year.

      funkyflights great effort, indeed. And many often forget that the ‘94 Dallas Cowboys had lost 5 starters (4 being pro bowlers) from the previous year’s championship team to free agency. Pro bowl tackle Erik Williams had also been lost for the season, due to injury. Most importantly, the Cowboys were without former head coach Jimmy Johnson and offensive coordinator Norv Turner, too. All while the 49ers loaded their team.

    It may surprise the casual fan to know that this is the game both Troy Aikman and Michael Irvin have consistently said they're the most proud of, because even though the Cowboys lost and even though they played arguably their worst seven minutes of football at the start, they delivered an absolutely gutsy performance for the remainder of the game.

      It might be the greatest non SB game ever played. Legendary statement performances in this one.
      Obvious Irvin proved he’s a big game WR, even in adverse circumstances.
      Deion led to SF’s first score because Aikman threw into coverage, which exactly what SF wanted. ✅. He gives up a key catch to Irvin on a comeback route, but adjusts perfectly in the second half on Irvin comeback routes. ✅. Then he gets a key Int and has the key pass breakup in the second half. ✅. When you watch the entire game you see Dallas neglecting Smith in the 1st half for dink & dunk short passes, hoping to lure Deion to sleep / wear him down. ✅. I give him the game ball off of X’s & O’s dominance
      SF’s front seven did a great job and getting to the QB against one the best O Lines ever. Steve Young and Rice could easily been seen as an afterthought because this game was THAT good.

And interestingly enough, against Baltimore in the SB, I will admit that J. Smith held Crabtree. But maybe that was karma for the no call on Deion. Hahaha then good ole Colin Kaepernick throws an int to ET3 on a potential game winning drive. Still stings. Told ya, you sold the farm to win one more was it really worth it? Now I can't really talk becuase we did the same thing in 95.

    ESPN2 once voted this game as the most anticipated non-Super Bowl playoff game of all time. Based on the point differential formula Dallas's expected Win total was 12.3 and San Francisco's was 12.5. These two teams were evenly matched. The game featured a whopping 21 combined Pro Bowlers and an even more whopping 10 combined future Hall of Famers. San Francisco would go up 21-0 within 7 minutes and then Dallas would outscore them 28-17 the rest of the way.

That no-call Pass Interference by Deion on Michael was the nail in the coffin! Otherwise, I believe, the Cowboys win that game! But nevertheless, this was my favorite time in NFL history. These weren't mere athletes on the field, these were titans. The early-mid 90's was the true Golden Era in NFL History - Aikman, Young, Kelly, Favre, Elway, Moon, Montana, Emmitt, Barry, Irvin, Rice, Reed, Lofton, Rison, Sharpe, and just on and on and on.

    I miss these days. This was truly an arms race. The pendulum swung ro the Niners’ favor when they got Deion in the offseason and it swung back to Dallas’ the following season. Good ol Candlestick was a mess to play in, both in the 92 and 94 NFC Championship games.

    Steve Young of the 90's reminds me of another southpaw in the Bay area from the 70's Kenny Stabler. Stabler lost 2 of 3 AFC Championship games to Pittsburgh....Young lost 2 of 3 NFC Championship games to the Cowboys. Young also lost the 1997 NFC Championship game to the Packers. Stabler had lost the 1973 AFC Championship game to the Dolphins, and lost the 1977 AFC Championship game to the Broncos.

      GREAT game to start with!
      My first was Super Bowl XX, Bears 46, Patriots 10... The '85 Chicago Bears were a national sensation.

    I remember the feeling and nervousness for my 49ers when that NFL song intro came on........Ricky Waters put on a clinic!!!!!! Michael Irving couldn't be stopped but them 49ers gave them a beat down.

      Maybe in the first 6 minutes but after that the cowboys actually outscored the niners but it does seem the niners were destined to win this game. Everything that could go wrong for the cowboys did and great coaching by the niners going for it on 4th down a few times and cashing in.

      Dude they were a bad no call away from being down 35-38 with 6 minutes to go in the game.

      @jackduncan5442 3 года назад

      The true beat down was gonna be SF in 94. But Jerry SPARED you of that ass kicking.

      Jimmy as HC, Dallas EASILY GOES 14-2 and OPENS UP A CAN OF WHOOPASS ON SAN FRANCISCO. Don't even try to argue, you will be slapped down.

    1994 was an amazing season for the 49ers, they finally won the NFC Championship, and won the Super Bowl. I said to myself like this: YES! We finally did it.

    • @jackduncan5442
      @jackduncan5442 3 года назад

      They finally did it because Jerry Jones allowed it.
