Joe Montana played in four Super Bowls and led
the 49ers to four victories. Ironically, the only
game in which he wasn't named the most valuable
player -- the award went to wide receiver Jerry
Rice -- was the one in which he passed for 357
yards and two touchdowns, including the game-winner
in the final minute .
"I don't want to call him a god," Bengals wide
receiver Cris Collinsworth said, "but he's not
human either."
He was quietly efficient while winning his first
MVP award in SuperBowl XVI, completing 14-of-22
passes for 157 yards and a touchdown in San
Francisco's 26-21 victory over the Bengals. In XIX,
he passed for 331 yards and three touchdowns and
ran for 59 yards and another touchdown in a 38-16
rout of the Dolphins.
