    The Catch   #2 on the list.   Check.

    The Immaculate Reception didn't quite make the cut, it was like #12 or 14....still good guess. 

    Wow the catch #2 some real Montana love.

    Speaking of which how about the CINCI/SF SB 16 game where during the final drive in the huddle Montana said to his teammates "look there's John Candy".......true story.

    .......* Well the John Candy bowl didn't make the top 100 but SF was in 12 many because of Joe Cool Montana.

    The CLE BROWNS mentioned in games #11, 22 (both vs DEN), 71, 80, 96 but only two as the winning team #32 and#80 Bernie Kosar's  

    32 December 24, 1950 CLE RAM 1950 NFL Championship Browns win championship in first NFL season
    80 January 3, 1987 CLE NYJ 1986 AFC Divisional Marathon by the Lake
