Thank you for this video. I LOVE watching oldee games. I am a Packers fan but I am also a flat out FOOTBALL FAN. I love watching old games with past icons. Bradshaw, Stabler, B.Sanders, Tarkenton, Payton, Starbauch, T.Dorsett, Dickerson, and so many more. Too many to list. I remember Thanksgiving's past. Watching football with Grandpa and Dad. The Packers vs. Lions occasionally. The Cowboys always. But it was always FUN. Then the FEAST and the nap.....LOL. I lost my family to illness. My Mom to emphysema, my Dad to cancer. My Grandpa had a heart attack on a Saturday. Nov. 13, 1982. I try not to dwell on what I have lost. I try to look at what I have. So this Thanksgiving I am going to binge watch some older football games, then watch a present game or two. Then another classic game and just remember the people I love and miss so much. Happy Thanksgiving to EVERYONE. MERRY CHRISTMAS❄⛄🎄🎅🎁🎁🎁🎁🎁💝 And 🎈🎉HAPPY NEW YEAR🎊🎈 TO EVERYONE AS WELL. LET'S HOPE IT'S BETTER THAN THIS ONE. STOP THE INSANITY PLEASE.
2:19:45 When Montana calls out "Razor", the Packers defense appears to know exactly what that means. In the Super Bowl later that year, the Bronco's defense was burned by it.
and Favre would use that same audible (same west coast offense play against the same defensive look the Broncos had in the 89 Super Bowl albeit with a different audible name) to get a touchdown against the Patriots in Super Bowl 31. He played the same west coast offense with Mike Holmgren as his coach who came from the 49ers as a qb coach and offensive coordinator.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Philadelphia Eagles game were edge of your seat excitement. The Green Bay Packers make a visit to the stick for the first time since 1974 in which the 49ers beat them. 49ers 7 Packers 6. The Packers made their first visit to the stick on November 26th. 1973 on Monday Night Football, 49ers 20 Packers 6. Their last visit was in 1970 at the old Kezar Stadium in Golden Gate Park. 49ers 26 Packers 10.
Well, they didn't play well in either of those 2 games. The game against the Rams ended on a Rams FG as a result of a Tom Rathman fumble. And this game is where they had 2 turnovers called back, 1 was a pick 6 by Chet Brooks. I was a Packers fan back then, so I loved watching this game
They also did that in 1990 ... lose two home games and go undefeated on the road. Unfortunately for them, and fortunately for me, because I was rooting against the 49ers that day, they lost the NFC Championship Game at home to the Giants.
@@williamkanejr3233 That's why I was hoping the Niners would of played on the road in the NFC Championship that year, as they were tougher to beat on the road, and so I wasn't surprised that they lost at home to the Giants lol
I was a kid when I watched this on November 19, 1989. I wasn't a huge Green Bay fan, but I just wanted to see ANYBODY beat the 49ers, so this game was golden! Can't believe it was 30 years ago!
I remember this game and this season well. It was the best one the Packers played all year. They finished 10-6 and lost the tiebreaker to Minnesota for the division title. Had the third wild card been a thing back then, they would have made the playoffs.
Cin Nordlaw I remember this season too. I think they could have won at least one playoff game but in the end they wouldn’t haven’t beat San Fran in the playoffs. The 49ers were a different team that year in the postseason
1:37...I loved during the fall of 1989 when many NFL teams used Prince's Batdance as the song for the opening kickoff. Then it was randomly Start Me Up from The Rolling Stones...well they had one of their 'farewell' tours and it made the song popular again.
I appreciate you putting this game up. The camera angles on the game were terrible. It’s like there was one camera on the 50 yard line and they just swiveled it.
Just as a neutral observer, if I could change two outcomes in NFL history, they'd be: a.) Miami over New England in the '85 AFCCG. We were robbed of an epic Bears-Dolphins rematch. Imagine how the narrative changes on Marino if he manages to beat the Bears twice and grab a ring. Imagine how uncontroversial the Bears would be as a choice for Greatest Team Ever if they manage to adjust the 46 Defense and avenge their only loss. b.) Bengals over Vikings in the final game of the season on Monday night. It knocked the Bengals out of the playoffs (as an Ohio sports fan, okay, I'm a little less than neutral on this) and put the Vikings in, which knocked the Packers out. It's hard to imagine now but the Packers were completely lost in the wilderness basically from when Lombardi retired until Favre became QB. One-season wonders or not, it would have been a lot of fun to see the Majik Man and the Cardiac Pack in the postseason that year, back when that was actually a novelty. (And of course, on a personal level, C. would be the Browns not choking the AFCCG in '86. I don't think the Browns beat the Giants, but it was the best Browns team since at least '64 if not the Otto Graham years and it would have been nice to at least have a shot at it.)
But as a steelers fan, I'm glad the Bengals lost cause that put us in there to face the Oilers, and without us glanville might've kept his job and won a playoff game accept he lost got fired like usual, but I do like Sam wyche tho
This game shocked a lot of people. Packer fans included. The 49ers were a POWERHOUSE, but it goes to show you that any team can win. Majikowsko was a decent QB but he was brittle probably from all the hits he took. But once he went down a young kid from Mississippi took the reigns and Green Bay became a POWERHOUSE.
Majkowski was the first version of the Favre Mustang. Ran great on the highway, strong passing gear....lots of fun. Not as good in the city. Poor suspension. Rings, seals, valves...interior parts went bad before their time. The engineers worked out the bugs and we got the Favre Fastback Cobra Jet Boss Shelby GB 40. Brakes, we don't need no stinking brakes!
This GM set the tone for the packers dominating SF in the 90s!!! The only win in the 90s vs the pack was that 98’ “Jerry Rice” fumble playoff GM!!! Replay back than, packers win & T.O. Never gets his bs moment🙄
Don Majkowski had the potential to be a Hall of Fame quarterback, but he was plagued by injuries, and so was relegated to backup status for several years before having to retire early.
SingleTax it was that torn rotator cuff against the (I think) Cardinals. If he hadn’t gotten injured, he might have been something special. But I’m not sure if it would have been in Green Bay. After they fired Infante, they brought in Mike Holmgren. And with Holmgren, came the West Coast Offense. And if you watch Majkowski trying to play the West Coast Offense, he’s terrible. He couldn’t adapt. Maybe he could have been something somewhere else with a team that didn’t use the West Coast Offense, but definitely not in Green Bay if they got Holmgren.
The Packers opening drive in this game stands in stark contrast to the Bronco's opening drive in Super Bowl XXIV. In this game, the Packers immediately established the run and utilized Majkowski's running ability to score a touchdown. In the Super Bowl, Denver opened with three straight incomplete passes. That was a questionable strategy, because Denver had a terrific young running back in Bobby Humphrey, and Elway was a great runner himself.
The Packers defence was nothing but impressive. The 89 49ers was almost invincible. After this loss, the 49ers went on to win every game the rest of the season.
As a Bears fan I can never forget the '89 season, a disaster season when they started 4-0 and then collapsed after Dan Hampton got injured and was out for the rest of the season and went 2-10 after that.
My team didn't win but it was still a great game and glad I watched. A nail biter. Both teams played really well. The 49er Faithful was extremely loud in a non-dome. One of the highlights for me was the ref's asking the 9er D to help quiet the crowd so Majik could call his plays. Hah! We were so innocent back then. Never knew Candlestick could be that loud. Amazing.
Ahhh yes...the "Pack are Back" 1989 Packers. 49ers lost this game, and it sucked. We got them the next year though back in Green Bay. Then we proceeded to lose a zillion times against Favre until 1998.
I remember seeing that game on TH-cam a few years ago, the 1990 game I mean, but they took it down, hopefully they'll put it back up it was a good game
@@manuginobilisbaldspot424 If that game has an asterisk, then the MNF game in Green Bay in 1996 has an asterisk because Don Beebe was gifted a free 50 yard TD by the officiating crew. Marquez Pope clearly touched him and he was down.
@cpk1994 A free touchdown is a free touchdown regardless of what quarter it is gifted. That was a close game, and clearly had an effect on the outcome.
@cpk1994 Packers won by a field goal. It did have an effect, because from that point on both teams play differently indicative on the score. Especially in a tight game. In the 1998 wild card game, if the Packers get the fumble, all they have to do is knell correct, but Favre could have fumbled the snap even if it's 99.9% unlikely. We'll never know.
I remember "Infante We Trust" painted on the fence across from Lambeau Field after this season, thinking next season they were Super Bowl contenders. Well, that passed.
The Minnesota Vikings won the NFC Central Division crown in 1989, by virtue of a better division record than the Packers. The Vikings were 6-2, while the Packers were 5-3. But if you google the 1989 NFL season and look at the standings, the Packers are shown as having won the division. At first I couldn't figure it out, but then I realized that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers were in the NFC Central in 1989, and that's what probably confused the computer algorithm into awarding the division title to the Packers. You see, the Buccaneers are currently in the NFC South, which would now make them out of division opponents. The Packers were 1-1 against the Bucs in 1989, while the Vikings were 2-0 against them, thus giving the division to the Vikings. But the Packers were 10-4 against the Conference, while the Vikings were 8-4. Which means under the NFL's current configuration and rules, the Packers would win the division title.
I am looking at this game that i remember very well sterling shape made a circus catch and i cant find it. The level of cockyness of the niners was to much was happy to see them loose. Majik man was great. Good post !
People always forget about this game. They always talk about how lucky the Packers were in '89 and they always bring up the 'Sore Loser' Game (Not 'Instant Replay', Bear fans!).
Candlestick was by the bay and the field was below sea level, so the field was one of the worst in the NFL. Always wet and sloppy. Craig and Rice couldn't make the cuts they could on dry fields. The road fields were dry like the ones the 9ers practiced on.
I remember the night after this game I called my friend his dad was going to work graveyard shift I called him like 37 times in a row and hung up boy that died was steaming mad
It's thirty years later & San Francisco now 10-1 after shutting down future HOFer Rogers. This team not as disciplined as 1988-89 (Walsh teams), but stronger & faster. "De ja vu all over again."
Because of this stupid game 8-8 and 9-7 teams can make the playoffs as wild card teams. Quality has really sunk. Just one of the thousand reasons I do not watch modern games anymore. Just memories from the 70,s, 80,s and 90,s. R.I.P. old quality NFL.
Win-loss records can be very misleading. The 49ers, for instance, lost six games during the 1988 regular season, yet went on to win the Super Bowl. And the Browns won their division in 1985 despite losing *eight* games.
This game showed why the Packers should have won the NFC Central over the Vikings that year. The Packers had better strength of victory and a better conference record over the Vikings that year. FYI, if you google the 1989 NFL season and look at the final standings, the Packers are shown as being division champions. That's because under the current computer algorithm, the Packers win the division.
Its as if the niners wanted to lose. I never saw that version of SF make soooo many mistakes and still had it in hand near the end. At the point of their last first down, the ESPN % predictor probably would have had them at 75. A guy with one leg scores 2 TDs and basically kills the time with a bootleg. Very odd game.....I loved it...SF got better if I remember right.
Those 10-6 Packers were one of the best teams ever that missed the playoffs. What if in tgat year draft the packers have choosen Barry Sanders or Deion Sanders or Derrick Thomas instead of Tony BigBust Mandarich????
I’ve always kind of wondered what would happen if they drafted Sanders. But the worry I have is if they made the playoffs, what’s to keep them from not doing it again. Maybe Majikowski doesn’t get hurt as well. I worry that if the Packers were more successful during the Infante era, maybe Favre and Holmgren don’t come in 92. Could be disastrous if they’re not bad enough to get Infante fired. I’ve kind of thought it would make more sense in the long run to instead pick Derrick Thomas since Deion would have left and they couldn’t have picked Aikman.
This was the last time SF lost in 1989!!! I was so pissed when the 89’ 10-6 cardiac pack didn’t make the playoffs because the bengal bleeps couldn’t beat Minnesota on Monday nite!! I’ll never forget like look on Majikowski’s face as ABc had a camera at the Majik Man’s house😤**** Minnesota👉🏻👌🏻
Wasted a GREAT play by Chet Brooks, a guy I think would've helped keep the 49ers defense going really well. Had he not hurt his neck, I think Brooks would've been a star in the league.
ProfessorB Media Until the 1995 Divisional Round. And the 96 Divisional Round. And the 97 Championship Round. The 95 49ers would have been back to back champs, but Green Bay said “Nah fam.” I just wish they could have beaten Dallas. I would have rather seen the 49ers or the Packers in the Super Bowl rather than Dallas.
Two 49er interceptions one for a touchdown both magically had phantom penalties flags appear 30-40 seconds after play ended! I'd submit there's probably a penalty every play that isn't called or seen until they want to see it!
@@masteryang7243 yea..lol...but now the JETS own Rodgers....most expensive 43 seconds ever..we're looking like geniuses getting rid of him , but idk if Love can fill Rodgers or Farves shoes...well maybe lightning will strike 3 times and he'll be great too
To realize how special this game was to GB fans: SF went 14-2 and won it all that year. They lost to the Rams - but then beat them later in the playoffs. They lost to the Packers. GB was the only team to go undefeated against SF that year. Majkowski and GB had a top 5 season of the 45+ years I’ve followed this team. And that’s with 32-33 years of Favre and Rodgers.
Hilarious at 34:23 . Fouts: That should say 8-3 for Minnesota, instead of 7-4. Stockton: That's right Minnesota... Fouts: Beat Philly, yeah. Stockton: Minnesota should be 8-3...but Philadelphia beat Minnesota...that's why it's...correct.

@@mrtony1985Favre was great under Holmgren. Basically owned the 49ers. Favre wasn’t quite the same QB post Holmgren.
Majik was one of the great one yr wonders in nfl history

He injured his shoulder the next year. Lot of careers were derailed like that

This was one of my favorite games. I really enjoyed the 49ers vs Colts in 89.

Jet Jackson Oddly enough they lost both at home. 8-0 on the road & 6-2 at home. Amazing how well the 49ers did on the road.

John Taylor was such a smart player. Great receiver and return man
GREAT quality sharp picture

Just as a neutral observer, if I could change two outcomes in NFL history, they'd be:
a.) Miami over New England in the '85 AFCCG. We were robbed of an epic Bears-Dolphins rematch. Imagine how the narrative changes on Marino if he manages to beat the Bears twice and grab a ring.

Yeah, the Packers would've had a rematch with the Niners but I'm sure it would've been a much different outcome.
But as a steelers fan, I'm glad the Bengals lost cause that put us in there to face the Oilers, and without us glanville might've kept his job and won a playoff game accept he lost got fired like usual, but I do like Sam wyche tho
This game shocked a lot of people. Packer fans included. The 49ers were a POWERHOUSE, but it goes to show you that any team can win. Majikowsko was a decent QB but he was brittle probably from all the hits he took. But once he went down a young kid from Mississippi took the reigns and Green Bay became a POWERHOUSE.
Majkowski was the first version of the Favre Mustang. Ran great on the highway, strong passing gear....lots of fun. Not as good in the city. Poor suspension. Rings, seals, valves...interior parts went bad before their time. The engineers worked out the bugs and we got the Favre Fastback Cobra Jet Boss Shelby GB 40. Brakes, we don't need no stinking brakes!
Majik today is in rough shape. Last I saw he’s had 24 surgeries to repair his back, neck, and ankle.
A bit of foreshadowing in George Siefert's first season of the problems that the 49ers would have with the Packers in the future.
This GM set the tone for the packers dominating SF in the 90s!!! The only win in the 90s vs the pack was that 98’ “Jerry Rice” fumble playoff GM!!! Replay back than, packers win & T.O. Never gets his bs moment🙄
I love watching classic packer games
What I enjoyed most watching this is hearing Joe Montana's cadence at the line.
Don Majkowski had the potential to be a Hall of Fame quarterback, but he was plagued by injuries, and so was relegated to backup status for several years before having to retire early.
SingleTax it was that torn rotator cuff against the (I think) Cardinals. If he hadn’t gotten injured, he might have been something special. But I’m not sure if it would have been in Green Bay.
After they fired Infante, they brought in Mike Holmgren. And with Holmgren, came the West Coast Offense. And if you watch Majkowski trying to play the West Coast Offense, he’s terrible. He couldn’t adapt. Maybe he could have been something somewhere else with a team that didn’t use the West Coast Offense, but definitely not in Green Bay if they got Holmgren.
It's a big gap from what he was to Hall of Fame. He definitely could've been a Neil Lomax type...really
The Packers opening drive in this game stands in stark contrast to the Bronco's opening drive in Super Bowl XXIV. In this game, the Packers immediately established the run and utilized Majkowski's running ability to score a touchdown. In the Super Bowl, Denver opened with three straight incomplete passes.

It was the 1990 game. It was a diving over the head catch in the endzone that gave the packers a 10-0 lead but the 49ers destroyed them after that.

Nice upload Rich!
This was a good game back day.
1989, the year of the Cardiack Pack and the Majik Man.
What a workhorse Sharp was. Catch after catch after catch.
I don't get why the Niners always played better on the road than at home during the Montana years. They really had no home field advantage at all.
Candlestick was by the bay and the field was below sea level, so the field was one of the worst in the NFL. Always wet and sloppy. Craig and Rice couldn't make the cuts they could on dry fields. The road fields were dry like the ones the 9ers practiced on.

It's thirty years later & San Francisco now 10-1 after shutting down future HOFer Rogers. This team not as disciplined as 1988-89 (Walsh teams), but stronger & faster. "De ja vu all over again."
Because of this stupid game 8-8 and 9-7 teams can make the playoffs as wild card teams. Quality has really sunk. Just one of the thousand reasons I do not watch modern games anymore. Just memories from the 70,s, 80,s and 90,s. R.I.P. old quality NFL.
Win-loss records can be very misleading. The 49ers, for instance, lost six games during the 1988 regular season, yet went on to win the Super Bowl. And the Browns won their division in 1985 despite losing *eight* games.

Very odd game.....I loved it...SF got better if I remember right.
I knew the 49ers had an interception return for a touchdown called back. I thought it was a defensive holding penalty. Not an offsides penalty.
Don majkowski one of the best to EVER. PLAY THE GAME
He was a one season wonder.
The 1989 49ers for whatever reason were more dominant on the road than at home.
Same with their 1990 team. They went 8-0 on the Road as well and went 6-2 at home.
The 1990 team lost the NFC championship game at home too. As great as that team was I'm still wondering how they didn't three-peat.
Those 10-6 Packers were one of the best teams ever that missed the playoffs. What if in tgat year draft the packers have choosen Barry Sanders or Deion Sanders or Derrick Thomas instead of Tony BigBust Mandarich????
They would have had a better record, and would have been a challenge for the 49er's in the playoffs that year.
I’ve always kind of wondered what would happen if they drafted Sanders. But the worry I have is if they made the playoffs, what’s to keep them from not doing it again. Maybe Majikowski doesn’t get hurt as well.
I worry that if the Packers were more successful during the Infante era, maybe Favre and Holmgren don’t come in 92. Could be disastrous if they’re not bad enough to get Infante fired.
I’ve kind of thought it would make more sense in the long run to instead pick Derrick Thomas since Deion would have left and they couldn’t have picked Aikman.
Please more Don Majkowski videos
This was the last time SF lost in 1989!!! I was so pissed when the 89’ 10-6 cardiac pack didn’t make the playoffs because the bengal bleeps couldn’t beat Minnesota on Monday nite!! I’ll never forget like look on Majikowski’s face as ABc had a camera at the Majik Man’s house😤**** Minnesota👉🏻👌🏻
I feel somewhat better now having just watched the Jordan Love Packers blow it against the awful Broncos in 2023.
This game pissed me off. Danny Stubbs was the Packers mvp that day.
Wasted a GREAT play by Chet Brooks, a guy I think would've helped keep the 49ers defense going really well. Had he not hurt his neck, I think Brooks would've been a star in the league.
I dont know if he would've been a star but I loved how he played. He hit almost as hard as Lott.
Jeff Fuller was hurt in the NE/SF 89 quake game at Stanford,, wrong guy..
2 huskies on the packers- Bush and Mark Lee. Go Dawgs!
I want a CBS blazer.
dan "the beard" fouts! how bout those tim harris six guns!! he was our big time d man in '89
And the Niners would not lose another game after this loss to the Packers.
ProfessorB Media Until the 1995 Divisional Round. And the 96 Divisional Round. And the 97 Championship Round. The 95 49ers would have been back to back champs, but Green Bay said “Nah fam.” I just wish they could have beaten Dallas. I would have rather seen the 49ers or the Packers in the Super Bowl rather than Dallas.
2:19:48 Joe calling “Black 58 Razor”, that same call they always show in the highlights of the Super Bowl beat down of Denver. Didn’t work this time.
lovely!!!
The 49ers wouldn't lose again for 53 weeks.
Go 49ers!
Magic man from depew NY a suburb of Buffalo...Go Bills!!!
These names are so Tecmo
Nice
There was some terrible officiating here, even with instant replay. Hate when the officials take over the game.
Green bay beat the 49ers with joe Montana wow that was rare
Two 49er interceptions one for a touchdown both magically had phantom penalties flags appear 30-40 seconds after play ended! I'd submit there's probably a penalty every play that isn't called or seen until they want to see it!
I wasn’t born in this era. But Packers and Favre used to own them 49ers. But now Niners own Rodgers 🤦♂️
This game was before Farves time tho....
@@alteredbeast1974I know that. But I’m saying in general. Favre own the 49ers and 49ers own Rodgers
@@masteryang7243 yea..lol...but now the JETS own Rodgers....most expensive 43 seconds ever..we're looking like geniuses getting rid of him , but idk if Love can fill Rodgers or Farves shoes...well maybe lightning will strike 3 times and he'll be great too
To realize how special this game was to GB fans:
SF went 14-2 and won it all that year. They lost to the Rams - but then beat them later in the playoffs.
They lost to the Packers. GB was the only team to go undefeated against SF that year.
Majkowski and GB had a top 5 season of the 45+ years I’ve followed this team. And that’s with 32-33 years of Favre and Rodgers.
This Packers team could’ve had Barry Sanders Deion or Derek Thomas but they passed on them for Tony
Mandrich the big bust
Hilarious at 34:23 .
Fouts: That should say 8-3 for Minnesota, instead of 7-4.
Stockton: That's right Minnesota...
Fouts: Beat Philly, yeah.
Stockton: Minnesota should be 8-3...but Philadelphia beat Minnesota...that's why it's...correct.
I never realized that Ronnie Lott was such a crybaby till I watched this game.
Say that to his face.
Dan Fouts and Dick Stockton two of the best!
