I agree. Even though team members have a high level of physical conditioning (otherwise the No Huddle wouldn't work well for them at any time, IMO), players would be fresher longer into the game if they had a back like Gore as a fellow teammate.
Of the four major pro sports in the U.S. only Baseball and Football have all their regular season games within one calendar year. I wondered, with a 49ers win, how many other times have teams from the same city won championships in both sports in the Super Bowl era? This would be the 5th time. You got to enjoy the last one (Patriots and Red Sox - 2004 Season), and the other 3 were 1986 Season (Mets and Giants), 1979 Season (Pirates and Steelers), and the 1970 Season (Colts and Orioles)...I thought some Bay Area members might find that interesting.
Super Bowl 39 wasn't won by kicking a field goal to break a tie, but the Patriots still only won by 3 points
