It happened on this day in 1982 and it is still one of the biggest plays in NFL history.
Yes, "the catch" broke many Cowboys' hearts but it was an amazing play.
The 49ers were driving to score. They started at their own 11 and down 27-21. Montana drove the team down to the Dallas' 6 yard line. It was 3rd and 3 and SF had to score because a field goal would not have not a difference, i.e. Dallas would run out of the clock.
Montana moved to the right, threw the ball in the end zone and Clark jumped and made the catch.
And they've called it "the catch" ever since!
