OMFG. I think they were on a 17 straight road win stretch. Shredding defenses. 
Precision offense with an absolute surgeon in Joe.
18 straight on the road....it's still my favorite record that the niners have. Second highest all time is like 11.

They had backups that could start for other teams. Eddie and Carmen stacking players for Walsh. Wesley Walls was may favorite backup TE. I thought after B. Jones , Wesley would keep the train going at TE. Kinda like Montana then Steve. He ended up going to the Panthers in a expansion draft I think. Was so disappointed. Then he caught a TD pass against us, basically being a very good TE.

'89 team of course...the greatest team of all time IMO...In the playoff and including SB that year the games were over by half-time...that is dominance at a level I have not see in the NFL since...

After the 6-5 start in 1988, they went on to have 39-6 record (including playoffs) in their next 45 games. Just incredible.

The Rams in '89 was very good offensively. They were the buzzsaw in the playoff zeroing on us. They were trying to be another version of us. I got a bit nervous. By half time, I was all good. Defense showed up. 27-3... I think. Incredible.

I have to agree. That '89 team was one for the ages. A 100 point differential in the playoffs. WTF??!!

I'm not sure if the 89 team can beat my all time 1984..
Personally, I think that 1987 (who got upset by the Vikings) was better than 1989 team..
I just love the 1984 team because that team was consistent from the 1st tame to the Super Bowl vs Marino..
Plus, that alone, tells you how good the 1984 team was.. they held MARINO & THE MARK BROTHERS!!

The '84 and the '89 teams are both in the conversation as the greatest. The '84 team was one bad pass interference call away from 19-0.
But that playoff run at the end of '89 is something I don't know if any team will ever equal. How does an NFL team go into the playoffs and blow out every playoff team they face? That just doesn't happen.

1994 will always be my favorite team/year (I was 15, and I really didn't start watching the games avidly until the 1992 season when I was 13).
2011 is my 2nd favorite team/year

1984, I had started a new job had been unemployed for a while and I was next to broke. I made various bets on the Super Bowl giving the 3.5 to Dolphin fans + a dollar a point over and above the spread. Think I made $500 which was a lot of money to me back then.

The '81 team is my favorite. Though certainly not among the best teams that we have ever fielded, this group overcame all odds and brought home our first championship! The dynasty was born...

1988 49ers Montana Rice Taylor denied Boomer Esiason & the Bengals and gave Coach Bill Walsh a Super Bowl victory in his final game.
