    Maybe near #12 DAL at SF the Montana to Clark "the catch" game ?

    Oh and maybe the OAK in PIT "IMMACULATE DECEPTION" game ? The ball was deflected making it an incomplete pass -and- it did touch the ground making it incomplete -but-. no camera caught that.  Madden and the Raiders got robbed !

    Today they have way more camera angles plus Franco will not directly answer the question.  

    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.

    That's way too many to name, I'll go with the most obvious. 

    - The "Immaculate Reception" Oakland-Pgh game. 

    - The Bills-Oilers div playoff game of the 90's, where Bill came back from 33 points down. 

    - The 9rs-Dallas p/o game with the "catch."

    - The "Drive" game, Cleveland-Denver. 

    - The Pgh-Balt AFCC game. 

    - A few of the Colts-Pats games with Manning and Brady. 

    - The SB Bills v. Giants.

    - The NYG-9ers NFCC game when Montana got knocked out of the game. 

    - The Dallas-Steelers SBs of the 70's. 

    - Bears-Fins 1985 MNF game.

    - Pats-ATL SB.

    Bold are correct.  And how long have you been a patron of this board?  Surely you must know that the very first NFL Champions  hale from Akron...and yes, Kenosha also had a team.

    Highlighted are correct.   Racine and Mansfield did have teams....though the team in Mansfield did not carry the "Mansfield" name...they were called the Oorang Indians, named after a dog kennel.
