If you are going to do a list like that you need someone older who has seen it all with this team. You didn't cover half of it.

How about the biggest (at the time) come from behind win by the 49ers. We were winless at 0 - 13 December 7, 1980.
Joe Montana losing 35-7 at halftime rallies them back to win in overtime 38-35.

1978
Steve Bartkowski heaves a Hail Mary pass to Alfred Jenkins Pass interference, ball on the one. Falcons win 20-17

Rams FG kick in 1983 to boot the Saints out of the playoffs

You young guys don't know how good you've got it...

How about whe we were up by 5 on GB & could have killed the clock & TOlliver threw a pass (Ditka about killed him) & then Favre won the game on a last second hail mary.
