San Francisco has a thing for playing well when it matters the most. This time, though, it wasn’t Bill Walsh and Joe Montana or Steve Young and George Seifert. This time players like Tai Streets and Jeff Garcia made all the difference.
In the Wild Card Round of the 2002-2003 NFL playoffs the New York Giants led the 49ers by 24 points with just one quarter remaining.
But a comeback led by Jeff Garcia and Terrell Owens led the way until Garcia hit wide receiver Tai Streets with a 13-yard touchdown pass.
Giants quarterback Kerry Collins brought the Giants down within striking distance and trailing by one, but he botched a snap at the 49ers' 23-yard line and allowed the clock to run out, preserving a great comeback victory for San Francisco.
