The 49ers Defense carried them to their 1st Super Bowl.

How many times did Dallas turn the ball over in that NFC Championship game?

5?

And “The Catch” was intended to go to Freddie Soloman, but he was covered.

Montana was basically throwing the ball away, which Walsh told him to do if his Primary (Soloman) wasn’t open before the play on the sideline. Clark bailed him out with a great catch.

Fact, as I’ve seen it on NFL films but it’s something they don’t show anymore since “The Catch” has become a mythical event and the NFL doesn’t want to diminish it.

Actually, it was Montana and the 49ers that turned the ball over 6 times in that game with 3 INT’s by Montana which still proves my point: The 49ers Defense won that game, not their offense that turned the ball over 6x
