@@timotundy NYGs were no slouch back then and gave the Niners some memorable scraps. I love to rewatch the Jan 1991 NFC Championship game. Fake punt, the Marshall Hit, the Taylor fumble recovery, etc. are immortal memories in our hearts.
Joe Montana got crushed by a Mack truck known as Jim Burt in '86 playoffs, and then buy another truck, Leonard Marshall in '90 championship game, those were the good ol' days 😂😆 go Giants!!
Those were some classic games between the Niners and my Giants in the '80's. Brutal. Literal street fights. It was a clash of styles. The Niners had their Dynasty. They were amazing but, most people forget, the Giants knocked them out of the Playoffs 3 times in the '80's (1990) I think. Hell, if it were not for the Big Blue Wrecking Crew, the Niners might have had 3 more trophies, they were that good. I certainly miss the way the game was played in those days.
Trey Murphy The 49ers also had to face the Bears and Eagles defenses of the 80’s as well. The NFC was so strong in the 80’s. That went into the early 90’s as well.
And by some miraculous coincidence, every time the Giants managed to squeek out a win over the Niners, with the help of officials and huge dolllop of crooked play, are prominently highlighted as featured TH-cam fodder, whereas the many 49er tub thumpiing blow outs of the Giants are censored. You Old York fucks need to get a life.
@@papertigero Tell it like it T-i-is! Both the '88 and '89 regular season comeback wins aren't on YT, nor the game that Anthony Munoz rag dolled smelL-T all day long.
The best part of that story was what Ronnie didn't say. He filtered himself and left it to your imagination. That was great. Thanks for sharing, because I remember seeing that altercation, and I wanted to know what was behind it.
Both this 7-0 regular season 49er win and the Giants 15-13 NFC Championship game were classics. I remember watching the last 5-6 minutes with the Giants trailing 13-12 even though they had out played the 9 ers all game long. Carthon dropped a sure td pass from a Dave Meggett option throw and the Giants movie the ball all game long having to settle for fg all day long. The 49ers made one big play when Everson Walls went for a pick 6 and just missed by inches; turned into SF td. He missed but it was still the right move by Walls and anyone who ever play corner (at any level and I did) will tell you the same. Ball hawks ( Parcells brought him in to play for NY because they needed a gambler like him) take calculated risks, worked vs Skins for 6, this time he missed, oh well. That was the only decent play all day that great SF offence had vs the Great NY GIANTS D.. Anteater caused a fumble and Hoss got us close so Bahr could do his thing. GREATEST NFC CHAMPIONSHIP GAME EVER!!!
your recollection is way off...the 49ERS dominated both games defensively as the Giants never crossed the goal-line for a TD...and the Giants had to resort to trickery with a fake punt to stay in the game...then they needed Craig to cough up a fumble with the 49ERS in position to run the clock out..bottom line is the better team did not win that Championship...you can credit Parcells for out coaching Seifert..it certainly wasn't because the Giants had the better players..
@@tflo75 The Giants outplayed them that game. You're just sore. look at the statistics. The Giants were well ahead in both yards and time of possession.
Wearing those four SB rings are probably causing circulatory problems. You'd know that already, but none of your players from that era ever had that problem.
The only part of this that doesn't come out is that I remember hearing a direct quote from simms in a news report where he spouted "If there's any team in the league that I don't like it's the Forty Niners" That wasn't jim burt's doing.
I remember that game. Ronnie was killing Mark Bavaro down the middle and at the end Ronnie and Phil Simms were literally bumping facemasks talking shit to each other... It was awesome!
I seem to remember Mark Bavaro carrying five San Francisco defensive players on his back after a catch the first of which to latch onto him was the esteemable Ronnie Lott
I don’t know what game it was, but Lott had both arms wrapped around Bavaro from behind and kept going forward for another 13 yards. It took another 2 or 3 Niners to finally bring him down.
Johnny Cooks That was before the Giants became Super Bowl contenders, which is why the interviewer in this video referred to the “rivalry of the LATE 80’s and early 90’s”. The 49ers never beat them in the playoffs during that rivalry period of the late 80s early 90s.
kevin moore check it. The 49ers lost to the Giants three straight times in the PLAYOFFS, during that span in 1985, 1986, and 1990. Joe Montana was even knocked out of two of those games.
I watched that game and never knew what that was about until now. I wanted the Giants to kick their ass so bad after that it wasn't funny. I was estatic when the Giants beat them in the Championship game to end the bid for 3 peat.
1985, 86, and 90 playoffs, Giants 3-0 and Niners 0-3 and Giants 81 to 19 in points and Niners 19 to 81 in points. Giants ass kicking and Montana knocked out twice. Montana and Rice with 19 points in 3 playoff games. 85 Bears, bullshit!
it's amazing that as the hardest hitting Safety in NFL History Ronnie Lott never suffered a concussion..a couple sprained knees and broken pinky finger but that's it..
Yea this dude has issues with storytelling ..also they used to call it a ding, get back out there . They used to play through them not saying it's right but those dudes sacrificed everything back then!
As I'm watching this I can't help but think of Jackass Biden. Ronnie starts talking about A but than starts talking about C and so on. As hard as he use to hit people he must of been hit that hard too. God Bless, Ronnie
Michael SF won playoff games '81 & '84 with NY getting win '85, '86 & the classic 1990 win. SF got even with the 1993 beating of the Giants which turned out to be Phil Simms last game as a pro. What a decade of great football that was! Giants vs SKINS, 49ers with a little bit of Rams and Bears thrown in there. THE GREAT OLD DAYS FOR SURE.
@Michael 49ers beat the Giants in 81 during the regular season in 81 in the playoffs. 49ers beat them in 84 during the regular season in 84 in the playoffs beat them in 87 during the regular season in 88 during the regular season in 89 during the regular season in 90 during the regular season in 92 during the regular season and crushed them in 93 in the playoffs end Lawrence Taylor and Phil Simms career.
@@manco828 all of those games are important. if the 49ers don't win that game in 1988 against the Giants in the Meadowlands they don't make the playoffs they finish 9- 7 in the Rams and the Saints both finish 10-6.
Lott is a legend. NYG fan here, but respect to him...and the sweet SF uniforms. Looks like the Lannister football team.
As a giant fan, I wish we had the 9ers success In the 80s and 90s

Michael I stand corrected, like it really matters. Giants needed more than a fg to win, right?

Those were some great games
The niners were a super team but big blue had LT and the rest of those linebackers coached by BB.
Great story but Ronnie Lott isn't exactly Mark Twain when it comes to telling tales ;) He might be the best safety ever, though.
It was brutal. All prepreration no H
Best defensive back ever. Guy was an all pro cornerback too. Made all pro at every DB position.
I suspect that Mark Twain was not one of the best safeties ever to play football, so I am not sure what your point is.
If Lott had to play against Mark Bavaro every week, he wouldn't be in the Hall of Fame.
Bavara-whom?
He probably would. Great players bring out the best in each other.
@@kidmack1121 the guy Lott couldn’t bring down
If Bavaro had someone other than Phil simms to throw the ball to him every week, maybe he WOULD be in the HOF too.
@@TL2354
Plenty of solo tackles on him and the other giants' offense during the era of this rivalry.
All I can say is mark Bavaro
Frustrating listening to Lott almost never getting to each point.
Cte give the man a break
Wearing those four SB rings are probably causing circulatory problems.
You'd know that already, but none of your players from that era ever had that problem.
Kid Mack now I’ve heard of a roast. But my man, you just doused the brotha in gasoline and lit him on fire 😂
sounds like lott took too many hits to the head
I think you meant GAVE too many.
Better to have slurred speech from work related injury, than recreational.

While Simms didn’t like the 49ers…he never said that about Ronnie. Jim told me he made up the story to get Ronnie psyched up for the game

Between 1986 and 1991, the Giants and 49ers met in the playoffs 3 times. The Giants won all 3 of those games.
EmeAhG They also met in 1981 and 1984 in the playoffs and the Niners Won.

Is he speaking English? What a way with...words?

Suffered through that on a long ride home. Even the abrupt ending left me unfulfilled
