Some of the games described in this unique book involve championships, while others seem ordinary save for extraordinary personal meaning. In each case, it is the legendary 49ers player who singles out the game, the moment in time that to him is the most defining of his professional football career. Each player has his own unique story, but together they weave a tapestry of pro football and 49ers history in San Francisco. Steve Young, Jerry Rice, Roger Craig, John Brodie, Garrison Hearst, and R.C. Owens are just a few of the former players profiled. The book provides an in-depth look into the men and games that helped shape and build the 49ers franchise into one of the most successful in NFL history.
