Another dominating season. Another shower of post-season awards. Possibly the greatest single accomplishment of Joe Montana for 1990 was his directing of the 49ers to an NFL best 14-2 record and a Western Division Title for the 5th straight year. Joe was the third highest rated passer in the NFC. His 26 touchdowns and 3,944 yards were second in the NFC, and those yards set a single-season 49ers record. The 49ers, behind the direction of Montana and explosiveness of Jerry Rice, had the highest rated offense in the NFC, second in the NFL. Against Atlanta on October 14, he threw for an unbelievable 476 yards and six TDs. Both were personal highs and NFC 1990 single-game bests. Montana was twice named Offensive Player-of-the-Week, sharing the award once with Rice. While other quarterbacks strive for team records and personal highs, Montana continues to assert himself as the greatest in NFL history. He passed John Hadl and Jim Hart to move into third on the All-Time NFL passing yardage list with 34,998 yards. Against Tampa Bay on 11/18/90 he passed Johnny Unitas to move into third on the NFL All-Time Completions list (2,836). With a few more fourth quarter miracles, Joe finished the season with 26 career fourth quarter comebacks. On paper and on the field, he's simply the best.
