From Richard Waldrup
Probably the best game in this great NFC rivalry where in the 1980s and early 1990s it seemed like every year they were playing for the top seed in the NFC.

Anyone who thinks the 49ers of the 1980s and 90s were a finesse team, that they were white-collar yuppies, who spent their free time playing golf or sailing and thought that the only people who worked hard for a living, lived on another planet or something, obviously didn't see this game.
If anything, the 49ers were just as big and strong as the New York Giants of this era, at least on defense and hit just as hard. Which is why the 49er-Giants games of this era were so physical, because both teams were big and strong, at least on defense. And their games had so much meaning. And they didn't like each other and hated losing to each other.
