description

49ers running back Ricky Watters had himself an unforgettable, record-setting day when San Francisco squared off with the Giants in the Divisional Round. With the 49ers offense moving the ball at will against the Giants defense, Watters was given plenty of opportunities to finish off drives, and he did just that, setting an NFL postseason record with five rushing touchdowns, a mark that still stands today. Those five scores were part of a 118-yard day on the ground, and he also tallied 46 receiving yards on five catches, putting together an all-around dominant performance as San Francisco beat New York, 44-3, on Jan. 15, 1994.
