NFL Football '94 Starring Joe Montana, called simply NFL Football '94 (ＮＦＬフットボール'９４) in Japan, is the sequel to NFL Sports Talk Football '93 Starring Joe Montana, released by Sega in 1993 on the Sega Mega Drive.

Having opted for a side-on perspective in Joe Montana II: Sports Talk Football and NFL Sports Talk Football '93, NFL Football '94 returns to the "vertical" perspective seen in the original Joe Montana Football and Electronic Arts' popular Madden series.
