Which SF 49ers squad was the most complete Super Bowl team?

No. 2: 1989 SF 49ers

Regular-Season Record: 14-2

Won Super Bowl XXIV vs. Broncos 55-10

Winning back-to-back Super Bowls is tough, but San Francisco remains one of only a handful of teams to accomplish this feat.

And it did so in dominant fashion by beating the Denver Broncos in a lopsided 55-10 affair.

True, the SF 49ers had already established themselves as the team of the 1980s. Joe Montana, Jerry Rice and running back Roger Craig were among the best offensive weapons in the entire NFL, but one figured the Broncos’ top-ranked defense from the regular season would be capable of putting up a fight.

Well, not so much.

It didn’t seem like the Super Bowl’s outcome would be such a one-sided affair, at least not during the regular season where the Niners’ point differential was only plus-189 — the lowest out of any of these three Super Bowl squads.

But when considering just how San Francisco steamrolled through the playoffs by a combined score of 126-26, all one needs to do is admit this team was built purely to win a Lombardi Trophy.

While a purely dominant squad, especially in the playoffs, the 1989 SF 49ers squad solidified the reputation of Super Bowls being the expectation level for the franchise after securing its fourth in the decade.
