SANTA CLARA — For as long as they show replays of “The Catch,” which is to say until a few years beyond forever, Dwight Clark’s outstretched fingertips will keep reeling in that floating pass from Joe Montana.
And no matter how many million more times Clark leaps, Everson Walls will never be able to stop him. The Dallas Cowboys defensive back will keep gliding with Clark across the back of the Candlestick Park end zone only to wind up with the worst view in the house.
That highlight will play again and again Sunday, when the 49ers celebrate “Dwight Clark Day” at Levi’s Stadium.
