I think you mean 1988 Niners.
Bill Romanowski was a rookie in 1988 and was a good LB, even had a pick in the Super Bowl. Michael Walter and Riki Ellison were better than people think. I remember at the time lamenting they weren't Mike Singletary or even Vaughn Johnson, but they were on two Super Bowl winning teams - though Ellison was hurt and replaced by Matt Miller in 1989) so couldn't have been that bad!
Speaking of comebacks, this is the most bizarre one the Niners have ever had, one year previously, in 1987. Good one in honor of Bill Walsh's Birthday yesterday.

As for Niners at Eagles, I'm heartened by these facts:
Niners 42 Cowboys 10
Cowboys 23 Eagles 28 (Cowboys with ball at 6 yard line and under a minute left before imploding)
Niners 31 Seahawks 13 (really should have been no more than 6, but 0 Offensive TDs allowed)
Seahawks 35 Cowboys 41
If the Eagles barely beat Cowboys, the Niners crushed them and the Seahawks, and the Seahawks were driving for game winning TD in final minute in Dallas, it seems the Niners will beat the Eagles.
Comparative scores are a useless way to forecast.
Yep. This is a fact that has been proven to be true repeatedly and yet some people continue to fall into the trap of utilizing them in an attempt to forecast an outcome…….
WTF is wrong with the old cranks here? I simply said I feel good based on the scores I illustrated. I don't have the right to feel the way I feel?
Are you guys the thought police now?
When are you going to accept that this is a thought sharing forum and most of what is discussed is opinion and reasons to feel a certain way? Everyone thought Oregon would win the Pac12, but Washington did. Do you now castigate yourself for getting it wrong?
LOL. I resent being called an “old crank”. I much prefer “old fart”. Perhaps if you reread your post you’ll get its irony…..
I believe that calling someone an old crank could be construed as an ad hominem attack. Then again, maybe I'm just an old fart, too. . . .
Free Phogge!!!! And no, crimson doesn't refer to the Tide.
