We all recall, Brady "congratulating" BP, post Niner-TB blowout. My most "insane" Cyclone moment ever, as in, unimaginable/UNIMAGINABLE.
Mahomes, congratulating Purdy, post Niner win?

Before us, the biggest moment in our Clone history, no matter the sport, by FAR.

Hey, folks are saying you look like the guy who assassinated 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?

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.

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.

And then HE DID JUST THAT.

Chiefs being without Omenihu DE and Thuney is a big deal. I think 49ers can do this.
Chances get even better if Skyy Moore and Kadarius Toney play lol.

And I see this as a Chiefs fan who is severely conflicted this weekend.

I wanted to click, make a response, but didn't want to confuse your WTF (wholeheartedly agree) with the X message that a comparison is to be had.

Comments circulating the Web, he said. How many subscribe to the likeness? Does it cross the threshold of what is surprising agreement or amount to trolling by a few people? Cripes.

LHO had a small, recessive chin, oversized nose, and if one judges character by one's overall facial appearance, was a loser (so easy to say in the wake of November 22, of course).

Brock is a good-looking guy. Big difference.
