Super Bowl XIV was an American football game between the National Football Conference (NFC) champion Los Angeles Rams and the American Football Conference (AFC) champion Pittsburgh Steelers to decide the National Football League (NFL) champion for the 1979 season. The Steelers defeated the Rams by the score of 3119, becoming the first team to win four Super Bowls in six years, as well as the first to win more than three Super Bowls. The game was played on January 20, 1980, at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California, and was attended by a Super Bowl record 103,985 spectators. It was also the first time that the Super Bowl was coincidentally played in the home market of one of the participants; at the time, the Rams played at nearby Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. The Rams became the first team to reach the Super Bowl after posting nine wins or fewer during the regular season. Their 97 regular season record was followed by postseason wins over the Dallas Cowboys and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Steelers were the defending Super Bowl XIII champions, and finished the 1979 regular season with a 124 record, and posted playoff victories over the Miami Dolphins and the Houston Oilers. Super Bowl XIV was a close game during the first three quarters. The Rams led 1310 at halftime before Steelers quarterback Terry Bradshaw connected with wide receiver Lynn Swann on a 47-yard touchdown pass. Los Angeles regained the lead on a halfback option play with running back Lawrence McCutcheon's 24-yard touchdown pass to Ron Smith. But Pittsburgh controlled the fourth quarter, scoring 14 unanswered points with Bradshaw's 73-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver John Stallworth, and running back Franco Harris' 1-yard touchdown run. Despite throwing three interceptions, Bradshaw was named Super Bowl MVP by completing 14 of 21 passes for 309 yards and two touchdowns.

Alhough identified with the new 49er dynasty of Coach Bill Walsh and America's favorite quarterback Joe Montana, Super Bowl XVI also represents the arrival--following much adversity and many discouraging defeats--of Paul Brown's Cincinnati Bengals and their journeyman quarterback, Ken Anderson. Called the "best pure passer in the game" by 49er coach Bill Walsh, Anderson was originally the discovery and "project" of Bill Walsh who, as Bengal quarterback coach and offensive coordinator, had been tasked by Paul Brown, the legendary former coach of the Cleveland team named after him, with finding an answer to the Pittsburgh "Steel Curtain" with 4 Super Bowls in 6 years (1974-1979) with a team of 10 future Hall-of-Fame players. Ken Anderson from "tiny" Augustana College (the adjective first used by Howard Cosell) was a pristine model, or "natural" talent, who quickly understood and absorbed Walsh's creative offensive formations. Walsh's goal was to replace the old game "played in the trenches," which had relied primarily on the rush and on ball control, with a new, more free and exciting game emphasizing frequent, high-percentage passing. Later called the "West Coast Offense" Walsh's system first came to realization with the #1 Passer rating of Anderson in 1974, which was repeated in 1975, to the amazement of a national audience viewing a Monday Night Football game in which Anderson's 450 yards through the air would overshadow and defeat the Buffalo Bills despite O.J. Simpson's 200 rushing yardage on the ground. When Walsh left the Bengals at the end of the '75 season, it was a departure with no small amount of disappointment and bitterness. In his later books Walsh makes no secret that he wanted to prove to Brown and the Bengal organization that they had made a mistake in not promoting him upon Brown's stepping down as head coach at the end of the '75 season. Superbowl XVI, then, was: 1. the end of the Steeler dynasty; 2. the vindication of the passing game developed for the Bengals and now the 49ers by Walsh; 3. the return of Ken Anderson to #1 Quarterback after two dismal seasons of only 4 wins; 4. a "grudge match" that amounted to sweet revenge for the injury felt by Walsh upon his non-promotion; 5. a superior football game, with the Bengals winning the individual statistics for a new Super Bowl record in passing but the 49ers playing a near-perfect, error-free game to win by less than a touchdown. The next Superbowl featuring the same teams would end with an exciting last-minute drive by Montana for another 49er victory. But the individual statistics would tell a different story: unlike the '82 match-up, the Bengals would be completely outmatched in the 1989 contest.
