The 49ers got off to a strong start in 1980, winning their first three games of the season. However, the team, still maturing, lost their next eight games in a row. Many of those games though were close, and the 49ers acquitted themselves well. During the season Walsh alternated DeBerg and Montana at quarterback. Though DeBerg had played well for the 49ers, Walsh felt the team's best chance to win in the long run was with Montana. He alternated the two quarterbacks, giving Montana some experience while keeping opponents off guard. This strategy of alternating quarterbacks from game to game and during games is rare in football, although it had been employed by other successful teams in the past, specifically the <a href="/wiki/Dallas_Cowboys" title="Dallas Cowboys">Dallas Cowboys</a> of the early 1970s who alternated <a href="/wiki/Roger_Staubach" title="Roger Staubach">Roger Staubach</a> and <a href="/wiki/Craig_Morton" title="Craig Morton">Craig Morton</a>, and the <a href="/wiki/Los_Angeles_Rams" title="Los Angeles Rams">Los Angeles Rams</a> of the late 1940s alternating <a href="/wiki/Norm_Van_Brocklin" title="Norm Van Brocklin">Norm Van Brocklin</a> and <a href="/wiki/Bob_Waterfield" title="Bob Waterfield">Bob Waterfield</a>. </p><p>In all DeBerg started nine games, going 4–5 with 1,998 yards, 12 touchdowns and 17 interceptions.

The 49ers trailed the <a href="/wiki/New_Orleans_Saints" title="New Orleans Saints">New Orleans Saints</a>, who at the time were winless at 0–13, 35–7 at halftime. However, led by <a href="/wiki/Joe_Montana" title="Joe Montana">Joe Montana</a>, the 49ers made (what was then) possibly the greatest comeback in NFL history, coming back to tie the score in regulation and winning the game in <a href="/wiki/Overtime_(sports)" title="Overtime (sports)">overtime</a> with a field goal by <a href="/wiki/Ray_Wersching" title="Ray Wersching">Ray Wersching</a> to give the 49ers an incredible 38–35 victory. It was this game, which marked Montana's first big NFL comeback win, that won Montana the quarterback job full-time. A number of key players emerged for the 49ers in 1980.

Walsh took the highly unusual step of overhauling his entire secondary with rookies and untested players, bringing on board <a href="/wiki/Ronnie_Lott" title="Ronnie Lott">Ronnie Lott</a>, <a href="/wiki/Eric_C._Wright" class="mw-redirect" title="Eric C.

He also acquired veteran linebacker <a href="/wiki/Jack_%22Hacksaw%22_Reynolds" title="Jack "Hacksaw" Reynolds">Jack "Hacksaw" Reynolds</a> and veteran defensive end and sack specialist <a href="/wiki/Fred_Dean" title="Fred Dean">Fred Dean</a>. These additions, when added to existing defensive mainstays like <a href="/wiki/Keena_Turner" title="Keena Turner">Keena Turner</a>, turned the 49ers into an offensively and defensively balanced, dominant team. After a 1–2 start, the 49ers won all but one of their remaining games to finish with a 13–3 record; at this time, it was the team's best regular-season win–loss record. Dean made the <a href="/wiki/Pro_Bowl" title="Pro Bowl">Pro Bowl</a>, as did Lott and Hicks. Led by Montana, the unusual offense was centered on the <a href="/wiki/West_coast_offense" class="mw-redirect" title="West coast offense">short passing game</a>, which Walsh used as ball control. Dwight Clark and <a href="/wiki/Freddie_Solomon" title="Freddie Solomon">Freddie Solomon</a> had excellent years receiving; Clark as the possession receiver, and Solomon as more of a deep threat. The 49ers' running game, however, was among the weakest in the league. <a href="/wiki/Ricky_Patton" title="Ricky Patton">Ricky Patton</a> led the 49ers with only 543 yards rushing. The 49ers' most valuable running back, however, might have been Earl Cooper, whose strength was as a pass catching back. The 49ers faced the <a href="/wiki/New_York_Giants" title="New York Giants">New York Giants</a> in the divisional playoffs and won, 38–24. This set up an NFC championship game match-up with the <a href="/wiki/Dallas_Cowboys" title="Dallas Cowboys">Dallas Cowboys</a>, whom the 49ers historically could not beat during their playoff runs in the early 1970s. The 49ers played the Cowboys tough, but the Cowboys forced six turnovers and held the lead late. The 49ers were down 27–21 and on their own 11-yard line with 4:54 remaining. As Montana had done for Notre Dame and the 49ers so many times, he led the 49ers on a sustained final 89-yard drive to the Cowboys' 6-yard line. On a 3rd-and-3 play, with his primary receiver covered, Montana rolled right and threw the ball off balance to Dwight Clark, who leaped in the end zone and caught the ball to tie the game at 27 ("<a href="/wiki/The_Catch_(NFL)" class="mw-redirect" title="The Catch (NFL)">The Catch</a>"), with the extra point giving the 49ers the lead. The Cowboys had one last chance to win. On the first play of the next possession, Cowboys receiver <a href="/wiki/Drew_Pearson_(American_football)" title="Drew Pearson (American football)">Drew Pearson</a> caught a pass from Danny White and reached midfield before he was pulled down by the jersey at the 49ers' 44-yard line by cornerback Eric Wright, who prevented a winning touchdown. On the next play, White was sacked by <a href="/wiki/Lawrence_Pillers" title="Lawrence Pillers">Lawrence Pillers</a> and fumbled the ball, which was recovered by <a href="/wiki/Jim_Stuckey" title="Jim Stuckey">Jim Stuckey</a>, giving the 49ers the win and a trip to their first-ever Super Bowl, against the <a href="/wiki/Cincinnati_Bengals" title="Cincinnati Bengals">Cincinnati Bengals</a>, who were also in their first Super Bowl. In <a href="/wiki/Super_Bowl_XVI" title="Super Bowl XVI">Super Bowl XVI</a> The 49ers took a 20–0 halftime lead and held on to win 26–21 behind kicker <a href="/wiki/Ray_Wersching" title="Ray Wersching">Ray Wersching</a>'s four field goals and a key defensive stand. In the '81 season, the defense had been a significant reason for the team's success, despite hiding in the shadow of the then-innovative offense. Montana won MVP honors mostly on the strength of leading the 49ers on a 92-yard, 12-play drive culminating in a touchdown pass to Earl Cooper. The 49ers completed one of the most dramatic and complete turnarounds in NFL history, going from a 2–14 season and a 6–10 season to a Super Bowl championship.<sup id="cite_ref-42" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-42"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>42<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The 1982 season was a retrogression; the team lost all five games at Candlestick Park en route to a 3–6 record in a strike-shortened season.<sup id="cite_ref-43" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-43"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>43<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> This year was the 49ers' last losing season for the next 17 years.

However, the 49ers have changed uniform designs and color combinations quite often throughout their history. From the team's inception in 1946, they wore dark or cardinal red, switching to scarlet red jerseys and gold pants for the 1948 season, with a gold helmet with one red stripe, with solid red socks and pants with no stripes. Entering the 1949 season, the first in the NFL, the 49ers adopted three stripes to their red jerseys, wearing gold helmets and pants, with no stripes and red socks with three white stripes. In the 1953, '54, and '55 seasons, the 49ers wore red helmets with a gold stripe in the middle, with silver pants with one single stripe of red. The socks also added the three stripes similar to the jersey's. 1955 was also unique in that the 49ers wore white pants with a black stripe bounded by two red stripes, and shadow drop numbers on their red jerseys, with black shadow drop borders on the white numerals. The following season, 1956, the team wore white helmets with no stripes, and white pants with a red stripe. In 1957 the 49ers wore red jerseys, a gold helmet with no stripes, and gold pants with no stripes; for the first time the 49ers wore white on the road, as dictated by the NFL for all teams, to have at least one team wearing a light-colored jersey during games. The first white jersey had two red stripes with a gold in the middle, as was their road socks: white, with two red stripes and gold in the middle. San Francisco wore red and gold in 1958 as well, with their white jersey having a single shoulder loop stripe, as well as adding TV numbers to the sleeves of their home and away jerseys. And in contrast to the socks at home, red with three red stripes, the away socks were solid red. In 1959 the team switched to red and platinum gold (looking more like silver), and for the next several years afterwards, with their white jerseys having double shoulder loop stripes (mimicking UCLA's), but continuing with the three white stripes on the sleeves above the elbow and below the TV numbers, with the red home jerseys. In 1960, the team added "Northwestern" red stripes to their helmets (a thicker middle stripe bordered by two thinner stripes), and that changed in 1962, with the addition of the helmet design the team has mostly worn since: white stripe bounded by two red, with the red oval and SF logo on the sides of the helmet. In 1964 the team's colors then changed again. All silver elements were changed to what was called "49er Gold;" helmets were gold. New beige-gold pants with a red-white-red tri-stripe in the same style as the helmet were introduced. Uniform's basic design would be worn for practically the next 30 seasons with only some minor changes and adjustments, such as a gradual change over from sans-serif to serifed block numerals from 1970 to 1974 and a switch from thin stripes to a very thick pant striping in 1976 (during which white jerseys were also worn at home for most of that season). The uniform ensemble of red and white jerseys, and beige-gold pants with thick striping were worn until 1995 with a few minor changes. During the 1994 season, many NFL teams wore "throwback uniforms" on occasional games to celebrate the NFL's 75th anniversary (a corresponding diamond-shaped 75th Anniversary patch was also worn by all teams) . The 49ers chose to wear a version of their 1955 uniforms as their throwbacks, with simpler sans-serif block numerals that were outlined and shadowed in black with White pants with thinner red-black-red striping were also worn, along with the old striped red socks. The regular 1989–95 design gold helmet was worn with this uniform, as there was no logo on the 1955 helmet. </p><p>In 1996, the 49ers celebrated their 49th anniversary by designing a commemorative jersey patch based on the earlier shield-crest logo. The team also debuted a substantially new uniform design, most notably changing the shade of red used in their jerseys from bright scarlet to a deeper, cardinal red a black dropshadow effect (along with gold trim) was added to the jersey numerals (which remained in the blocked serif style). As in 1994, the Niners donned white pants full-time for the 1996 season (also wearing them for the 1997 season and 1998 preseason,) though this time the pant stripes were marginally thicker and the colors were reversed to black-cardinal red-black (matching the striping on the helmets). For the 1998 regular-season opener, the team switched back to gold pants, with a more metallic gold rather than the previous beige-matte gold of the past. The striping along the side of the pants remained black-cardinal red-black, though a thin gold trimming was added, along with further oval "SF" logos placed on both sides of the hip.<sup id="cite_ref-260" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-260"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>260<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The 1996 helmet and jersey design with the 1998 gold pants was worn as the team's regular uniforms until the end of the 2008 season. The 49ers once again changed uniforms in 2009, which are very similar to the classic design, albeit with several significant changes. The sleeve stripes are now set at an angle to accommodate the even shorter sleeves of modern jerseys, (though the stripes appear straight and parallel to the ground when worn by the players themselves).<sup id="cite_ref-261" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-261"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>261<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> An updated 49ers uniform with improved fit, and more breathable and moisture-resistant fabrics was debuted (alongside the rest of the NFL teams) by new league uniform manufacturer <a href="/wiki/Nike_Inc." class="mw-redirect" title="Nike Inc.">Nike</a> on April 3, 2012.<sup id="cite_ref-262" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-262"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>262<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>On April 30, 2015, at their <a href="/wiki/2015_NFL_draft" title="2015 NFL draft">NFL draft</a> rally, the team unveiled their first ever alternate uniform (as opposed to a throwback design).

The final regular season matchup of the "Battle of the Bay" was won by San Francisco by a score of 34–3 on November 1, 2018, leaving the series tied 7–7. In 2020, the Raiders began playing their home games at <a href="/wiki/Allegiant_Stadium" title="Allegiant Stadium">Allegiant Stadium</a> in Las Vegas, effectively ending the geographic rivalry. The San Francisco 49ers would meet with the Raiders for the first time in Las Vegas on January 1, 2023. The 49ers would take a slim overtime win in with a field goal ending the game 37–34. The 49ers lead the all-time series 8–7.<sup id="cite_ref-301" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-301"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>301<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Cleveland_Browns">Cleveland Browns</h4></div> <p>In the AAFC, the only other competitive team other than the 49ers was the <a href="/wiki/Cleveland_Browns" title="Cleveland Browns">Cleveland Browns</a>, who they played twice each of the four years the league was in service; Cleveland lost four games in the AAFC, and San Francisco was responsible for two of them, including the one that broke a 29-game streak where Cleveland did not lose a game.
