This Sunday’s tripleheader will feature:

Followed by: 1981 NFC Championship: Dallas Cowboys vs. San Francisco 49ers – Dwight Clark’s leaping grab of Joe Montana’s pass to the back of the end zone in the final minute delivered a moment that lives forever in the sports lexicon as “The Catch.”

Followed by: Super Bowl III: New York Jets vs. Baltimore Colts (1968) – After his famous guarantee of victory, Joe Namath and the Jets engineered one of the greatest upsets in sports history over the Colts.
