Game Notes

49ers make a statement with a 17-14 win over the Steelers.

Upstart San Francisco rallies to improve to 7-2 while handing Pittsburgh a rare loss to an NFC team at Three Rivers Stadium. Walt Easley scores on a 1-yard TD midway through the 4th quarter to give the 49ers the lead after losing a 10-0 halftime lead after 2 costly INTs.

Mel Blount returns an INT 50 yards for a score on the 1st series of the 2nd half, and then Jim Smith catches a 22-yard TD pass from Terry Bradshaw following an INT by Jack Lambert.

However, the 49ers do most of the thievery, forcing 6 turnovers, with all 3 scores following turnovers. Joe Montana throws for 205 yards and 1 TD.
