There was no physical torch on the sidelines at Candlestick Park on that late January afternoon 41 years ago, but America could sense something was shifting...
The Cowboys and 49ers have decades of playoff history and passing of Super Bowl torches. This matchup isn’t that.
If Prescott is to guide Dallas back into that unfamiliar NFC title game territory, he needs to stay turnover free for another weekend. But it really goes beyond No. 4 in the pocket. The 49ers and Kyle Shanahan are attempting to prove — even if this was not by design — that if a team puts enough skill players around a most inexperienced, undecorated quarterback in a system built on physical dominance, it can still win a championship. And that’s what Dallas is fighting against Sunday at 5:30 p.m.
Lamb has the regular-season stats, but when does he arrive as a playoff game-changer? Failing that, can T.Y. Hilton produce another 52-yard catch as he did in his first game here against the Eagles? Can Michael Gallup create his biggest moment as a Cowboy? Remember, in a 1992 NFC title game that featured Michael Irvin, Jerry Rice and John Taylor, no one would have predicted Alvin Harper to come up with the game-breaking play in a 117-yard performance against the 49ers.
