BENGALS IN SUPER BOWL XXIII<br />
NFL commissioner Pete Rozelle termed it the most exciting of the first 23 games in Super Bowl history, and the result regained some<br />
respect for the AFC, which had lost the last four contests by an average of more than 27 points. But the dominant emotion of the day<br />
still was heartbreak for head coach Sam Wyche’s underdog <strong>Bengals</strong>, who took a 16-13 lead with 3:20 to play on Jim Breech’s 40-yard<br />
FG before succumbing to a 92-yard, 11-play TD drive led by San Francisco QB Joe Montana. WR John Taylor’s game-winning 10-yard<br />
TD catch from Montana came with just 34 seconds remaining. Never before had a Super Bowl been won on a TD so late in the game.<br />
<strong>Cincinnati</strong> played without FB Stanley Wilson, who was suspended for a substance abuse violation that occurred the night before<br />
the game. In addition, the <strong>Bengals</strong> played almost the entire contest without All-Pro NT Tim Krumrie, who suffered a severe broken<br />
leg early in the fi rst quarter.<br />
The teams were tied 3-3 at halftime, tied again at 6-6 late in the third quarter, and then swapped TDs in quick succession. A<br />
93-yard kickoff return by <strong>Cincinnati</strong>’s Stanford Jennings was countered by a four-play San Francisco TD drive. The third of Breech’s<br />
three FGs gave <strong>Cincinnati</strong> its third lead of the day before Montana’s fi nal heroics saved the day for the 49ers. San Francisco WR Jerry<br />
Rice tied a Super Bowl record with 11 receptions (still tied; originally set by <strong>Bengals</strong> TE Dan Ross in Super Bowl XVI) for 215 yards<br />
and one TD, earning the game’s MVP award. Montana completed 23 of 36 passes for 357 yards, two TDs and no INTs. The victory<br />
made San Francisco the fi rst NFC team to win three Super Bowls.<br />
