Joe Montana – Super Bowl XXIV MVP

San Francisco quarterback Joe Montana was named the Super Bowl MVP, his third award in his fourth Super Bowl victory. He completed 22 of 29 passes for a total of 297 yards and a Super Bowl record 5 touchdowns, while also rushing for 15 yards. Montana’s 75.9 completion percentage was the second highest in Super Bowl history, and he also set a record by completing 13 consecutive passes during the game and broke two Super Bowl records; most touchdown passes in a single game: 5 (breaking Bradshaw’s record of 4) and most touchdown passes in Super Bowl play: 11 (breaking Bradshaw’s record of 9). This game remains the most lopsided in Super Bowl history. San Francisco’s 55 points were the most ever scored by one team, and their 45-point margin of victory was the largest ever. Also this set the record and is still the game with the largest difference in total offense yardage with 294 (San Francisco with 461 and Denver 167).
