Super Bowl XXIII: Montana....Touchdown John Taylor!
As we sit here waiting for the kickoff of Super Bowl XLV between the Green Bay Packers and Pittsburgh Steelers, I thought it'd be fun to take a look back at a spectacular Super Bowl memory for 49ers fans. The 49ers had some great moments over the course of their 5-Super Bowl run from 1981 to 1994,...
Where are they now part 4: The Wide Receivers
Recently the NFL Network ran a special that they called "The Top Wide Receiver Corps of All Time". Of course we'd expect to see Jerry Rice and John Taylor up there but the shocker is where they ended up at. Jerry Rice was just selected as a first-ballot Hall of Famer and the other is a very...
Josh Morgan, Punt Returner?
It's no mystery that since releasing Allen Rossum, and losing Nate Clements to injury, the 49ers punt return options have been somewhere between awful and abysmal. You know what, I think I'll just stick with abysmal because they honestly don't qualify to be as good as "awful." The 49ers as a team...
49ers Year-by-Year: 1996
In this installment of the 49ers Year-by-Year, we take a look at the 1996 season. This is another one of those glorious, punishing seasons. From unbridled hope to injury riddled mess to healthy resurrection to devastating playoff loss, the 49ers took fans on quite the roller coaster in 1996. It was...
49ers Year-by-Year: 1995
After two weeks off for a variety of reasons (most of which involved needing to devote my time to studying for my first test in more than two years), the Year-by-Year makes a triumphant return. 1995 was one of those awesome, sucky seasons. If you love reading about when the team was really, really...
49ers Year-by-Year: 1993
So, after a weeklong vacation and then a week long of ridiculously unreliable access to the internet, I - along with my Year-by-Year series - am back with a vengeance. This week we tackle the 1993 season (you see what I did there?), which was the team's first true season without Joe Montana. After...
49ers' Year-by-Year: 1990
In this week's edition of the 49ers' Year-by-Year, we follow the 49ers through their 1990 season. Coming off of their second consecutive Super Bowl victory, the 49ers were looking to be the first team in NFL history to win three in a row. Their success during the '80s had transformed the team into...
NN All-Time Team Part 2: 49ers All-Time Wide Receiver #2
The headline is really awkward, but from here on out I'll be dropping the first half of it. This is just to get folks on the same page with the balloting. In restarting the voting on our list of all-time 49ers, I thought we should start with a position that a year ago created quite a bit of...
49ers Year-by-Year: 1989
This is a brief historical recap of the San Francisco 49ers 1989 season. 1989 ushered in a new age for both the NFL and the 49ers, but how would it affect the product on the field? How could George Seifert possibly fill the shoes of Bill Walsh? 1989 would end up being one of the most memorable...
49ers Year-by-Year: 1988
This is a brief historical summary of the San Francisco 49ers' 1988 season. The 49ers had just been catapulted out of the playoffs by the Vikings, and the health and longevity of Joe Montana was as much as question as ever. How would they deal with the devastating loss? How would they handle the...
