During his football career, Joe Montana steered his team to 31 come-from-behind victories that left opponents stunned. Playing as a backup for Notre Dame, he once came off the bench with the score 30-10 with 15 minutes to play and led the team to a 31-30 win.
In the 1982 NFC Championship game with 4:54 left on the clock, Montana moved San Francisco 89 yards down the field and topped the possession with a miraculous off-balance pass to the corner of the end zone for the winning touch down.
Montana seems like the perfect professor to teach a class on how to be clutch, yet he says being ready for dire moments begins long before you get on the field.
