Super Bowl XVI
San Francisco
26, Cincinnati 21
Pontiac Silver Dome, Pontiac Michigan
January 24th, 1982
The 49ers won their first Super Bow just one day before
I was born. Little did they know that they had just began one of the
greatest dynasties in the NFL's history. As years would progress they
would be given the title "team of the '80's" and would establish a slogan
on their 50th anniversary... "Winning with class." They were playing the
Cincinnati Bengals in Michigan in front of 81 270 people. Joe Montana was
at quarterback giving a MVP performance. One of only two Super Bowls the
49ers played without Jerry Rice. Montana ran for a TD to open up the
scoring and would later toss another to WR Cooper. Wersching had 4 field
goals. The 9ers racked up 275 total yards and managed to win even though
they gave up 356 yards. I guess it all came down to time of procession
where the 9ers had the ball for about 5 minutes longer than the Bengals.
the final score was 26-21 9ers and they owed it all to Dwight Clark's
legendary reception, "The Catch" that brought them there by beating Dallas
in the NFC Championship Game.
