Damnit. Now I really want a super dog.
Holy eggplant…From an ESPN insider article on Shanahan:
JOE MONTANA WAS in the York family suite for the NFC Championship Game. When the 49ers trailed Detroit 24-7 at halftime, it was tense and dispirited. Lynch left his suite and went to the locker room, which he never had done, just wanting to be closer to the team. The Yorks had given Montana a special game ball for being an honorary captain, and then everyone looked at Joe to say something. Montana is not only accustomed to everyone looking at him at in tense situations, but he's accustomed to thriving in them. What would Montana say? He decided to reference two games, neither of which were among his four Super Bowl wins: The Cotton Bowl in 1979 and The Catch in the 1982 NFC Championship Game, the two comebacks that etched his legend.
"Two of my worst games," he said.
People laughed, but Montana wasn't trying to be funny. He was trying to explain something bigger than all of them. He reminded everyone that most people don't remember those games that way. They remember them as two of his best performances, prime examples of why he retired as the greatest ever. He had a gift: He knew how to believe. He knew how to engineer those remarkable moments in sports when we watch a team and a coach and a quarterback transform in real time, shedding both myth and truth, and entering a new realm. Montana told the room that the NFC Championship Game wasn't over, that sometimes the worst games end up with the best finishes.
"That's what Brock is gonna do today," Montana said.
Chiefs being without Omenihu DE and Thuney is a big deal. I think 49ers can do this.Holy eggplant…
That time JOE MONTANA predicted to the OWNERS OF THE 49ERS that BROCK PURDY would lead their team back to victory from behind in the second half of the NFC CHAMPIONSHIP GAME just like he, 3 TIME SUPER BOWL MVP AND TWO TIME LEAGUE MVP would do.From an ESPN insider article on Shanahan:

Has anybody ever seen them in the same place at the same time? Totally sus!I will admit, a couple times I did see a very slight (VERY slight) resemblance.n
Chances get even better if Skyy Moore and Kadarius Toney play lol.Chiefs being without Omenihu DE and Thuney is a big deal. I think 49ers can do this.
NFL: NO ******* LOGOS (unless you are willing to pay for licensing in conjunction with your promotion.)Why did they blur the 49ers logo? Lol
Hey, folks are saying you look like the guy who assisted JFK. How do you feel about that?
This reporter is lucky that Brock is so nice. Most NFL players would have laughed in his face or told him that he's an ahole for asking such a stupid question.
The week before the Superbowl is when things start getting silly. Can we just hurry up and play the game now?
