San Francisco 49ers: Best Individual Performances in Playoff History

No. 5: Terrell Owens — 2002 NFC Wild Card vs. New York Giants

Owens was just a beast in this game. He ran past and through Giants defenders throughout the game, and his performance played a large part in the 49ers having the second-biggest comeback in playoff history.

Owens did it all — he had nine catches for 177 yards, scored two TDs, converted two 2-point conversions, and even completed a pass of 25 yards. He was QB Jeff Garcia’s primary go-to man in this game, and he had nearly 100 more receiving yards than the next 49ers receiver.

Owens combined with the defense to shut out the Giants over the last 19 minutes of the game, which led to the epic comeback.

Owens performance is a worthy top-five member of this list.
