Isn't that now known as 'garbage time stats'?

if I recall correctly, the Boys fell behind 21-7 early in the first quarter but scored consistently a touchdown every quarter trying to comeback……not like being down 30-0 and then scoring two late touchdowns at the end of the 4th quarter………..slight difference

Nice spin.

Actually, Dallas trailed 21-0 less than five minutes into the game. The Niners first score came on Aikman's first pass - a pick six. Dallas never got closer than 10 points.

Next time, just be honest and say "yes".

I was about 2 years old when this was played, but isn't this the game where Switzer made the joke about what was great about being down 21-0?

so…you don’t see the difference between oh let’s say this years Broncos game where we were down 30-0 and than our offense scores the last 16 points when the broncos were in a 4th quarter prevent defense and not enough time to catch up, compared to the 1994 team scoring through ALL 4 Quarters of the game?…..

it was 31-21 in the 3rd quarter of the 1994 game….just a 10 point difference at one point

That’s honesty and facts to back it up.

Isn't Sears bankrupt? lol

Thank god we aren't facing Joe Montana or anything close to him on Sunday. Other than Philly, this is the best match-up for us.

I wish we were. Isn't Montana like 65 now?

I can believe that…..I heard a kept economist insist that inflation is great for an economy too……so anything is possible

I recall reading once where he said something along the lines of, "You know what's great about being down 21-0 after the first quarter? Cuz we got 3 quarters left to get back into this SOB."

If I may also, I did say in the preseason that I'd like to play the 49ers in the postseason. Admittedly, I was stating the NFCC, but I got sort of close, didn't I?

You and many others weren't even alive and have no idea what football was really like in the '70s '80s and '90s the product that is put out there now is a joke compared to those decades!

I can't imagine what it was like other than what I see in the highlights they put on NFL Network of it. Shame too. Can't really feel the dislike the Cowboys and 49ers used to have for each other. It's partly why I want the players from then to talk to the current chaps (Harper, I forgot, should DEFINITELY talk to the WRs) about just how much this playoff rivalry means.

……uh, that doesn’t refute anything I’ve said..

look, all qbs have garbage time stats in either wins or losses but imo, this wasn’t one of them and the fact that the Cowboys offense scored 7 points in every quarter suggests that very thing…..unlike this years game against the Broncos where the offense was inept until the Broncos went into prevent defense in the 4th quarter……and in any era, being down 10 points in the 3rd quarter means the game is still within reach

Imagine how these boards would react if they existed and that it was revealed he was *gasp* joking while losing in an NFCC game.
