Indeed. While Joe's stats are impressive enough, the reason why he is my all time favorite has little to do with stats. How can you "stat" what he had? He was the opposite of the player who chokes in the clutch. The bigger the game, the longer the odds.......the calmer he got and the better he played. Like Matt said, if you were not wearing a 49er jersey, Joe Montana scared the poop out of you.
No kidding, when the 49ers got the ball against Cincinnatti on their own ten yard line with something like three minutes left to play in the Superbowl, several points behind, I knew it was over. I KNEW it was over. I KNEW the 49ers would win. I KNEW it. According to reports, so did the rest of his team. And you know.......
I think the Bengals knew it too.
