Perfect for me.  Since my life sucks and I live in the past anyway.  My 80's childhood.  I didn't start watching football until the 1990 season when Marty made the Chiefs good again and got us back into the playoffs.  The season the Bills lost to the Giants on the Scott Norwood missed field goal.  That was the first season of football that I watched.  The 49ers were actually the best team in the league that year, but they lost in one of the most historic NFC Championship Games in history, when Joe Montana got knocked out and hit so hard that he didn't come back for 2 years (coming then to the Kansas City Chiefs to lead us to the AFC Championship Game in 93).

The great thing for me as an 80's kid about the 49ers is that you always remember being a kid you wanted to know... who is the best?   So you would ask your big brother, or ask the kids on the playground, but you always knew in those days... who is the best?  And the answers were so clear when you were a kid and accepted as if it was just the way life was and God had intended.  So these were our heroes when we were kids. 

Best in NBA?  Jordan
Best in College Basketball - Danny Manning
Heavyweight Champ Boxing - Mike Tyson
WWF Champ - Hogan
Best in Baseball - The Oakland A's
Best Baseball Player - Jose Canseco

Best Football Team - The San Francisco 49ers
Best Player in the NFL - Joe Montana

Marty got us to the playoffs pretty much every year of the 90's.  But the year we got Joe was the only year we made it all the way to the AFC Championship.  It was a great year.  Montana and Marcus Allen led us to victory against that great Oilers Buddy Ryan defense.

The Bills kicked our asses every year in the playoffs though.  Joe got literally knocked out of the game.  Before that he was fighting for us though.  He had us on the doorstep right before halftime and our receiver let the ball bounce off his chest in the endzone and the Bills picked it off for a touchback.

That's the closest we ever got with Marty.   Wasn't a Superbowl but going to the AFC championship game with great guys like Marty, Joe, and Marcus Allen is even more fun than winning 3 Superbowls with guys like Travis Kelce.
