The Vikes were 15-1 and arguably one of the best teams ever, UNTIL that loss.
That loss was squarely on the shoulders of Denny Green. He had the ball with PLENTY of time left in regulation to try and get into FG range and he just sat on it. Unreal.

'95 NFC Championship
In one of the most anticipated NFC Title Games ever, the Cowboys (who owned the Niners the past 2 years) came into Candlestick and got shellshocked 21-0 within the opening 5 minutes of the game.
Dallas Haters everywhere were Niner fans for a day.

the best championship game I've seen was Rams Eagles for my team. We didn't win but in recent memory thats the only NFC Championship game that was close. The rest were blowouts.
