10 Best Super Bowl Plays Ever

7. Super Bowl 23: Montana Completes The Drive

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O-5mLe8n9QI Few men have a Super Bowl record like Joe Montana. The current crop of the NFL's elite have been compared and contrasted to death, with Payton Manning's Super Bowl record (1-1) leading into his third appearance thrown up against the likes of Ben Roethlisberger (2-1) Tom Brady (3-2) but Joe Montana may just be the king. Four appearances with four wins and three MVP awards is going to be hard to top and Montana also holds a very special place in Super Bowl history. The Cincinnati Bengals had a three point lead with little over three minutes left. Better yet, San Francisco was starting from the eight yard line. Holding the 49ers deep in their own territory would secure the Bengals' first Super Bowl championship. Unfortunately, the Bengals are still waiting for their first title, as Joe Montana engineered one of the greatest drives in NFL history. Already a champion, already the face of a franchise, Montana added to his legacy by slinging quick, short slant passes in a no-huddle offence that burned just over two minutes from the clock taking the Niners all the way to the Bengals' ten yard line. There was just one play left, not only in the drive, but also in the legendary career of Niners coach Bill Walsh, as he called "20 Halfback Curl, X Up" and Montana rifled the game-winning touchdown to John Taylor. It was a drive for the ages, going ninety-two yards in just eleven plays and cementing Montana's place in the NFL's 'best of the best'.
