As much as I think Golden Joe is worthy of all the praise he gets...Rice is in his own league...Steve Young a distant third.

Yeah, I've got Rice #1 on the list too, followed by Montana.

For a dark horse candidate, how about Roger Craig? First RB ever with 1,000 yards rushing and 1,000 yards receiving.

Craig, Nebraska alumni, is certainly a dark horse...he never got the credit that he deserved.

Cool Re: Greatest San Francisco 49er Of All Time

Wendell Tyler....Just kidding. ...I would call it a tie between Montana and Rice...If I had a gun to my head, I say Rice. But it's really splitting hairs.

Re: Greatest San Francisco 49er Of All Time

I say Rice. He was not playing the same game as the others. He was the best ever. I just wish he would have left the game with a little dignity. I didn't like seeing him not making the team with the Broncos

Rice overshadows the rest so badly that the name of Dwight Clark has not surfaced...

Re: Greatest San Francisco 49er Of All Time

My favorite team growing up was the John Brodie teams of the early 70s. I loved Gene Washington, the wide reciever, and still say he was as acrobatic and as good as any I have seen since. But they could never beat the Cowboys in the playoffs.

Ah Brodie. Great player but not in rice and Montana's league, IMO.
