    Well then Aaron Rodgers is Russell Wlson's , he's 0-3 vs him. Do we really use that at some barometer of anything?

    Peyton Manning had one of the truly amazing NFL careers. Forget the stupid....but he lost....that's what dummies play. Who was better Dan Marino or the 4 time SB champ Terry Bradshaw? Johnny Unitas was far better than the two time SB champ Bart Starr.

    If they ever chisel out a Mount Rushmore for QB's.

    John Unitas
    Joe Montana
    Tom Brady
    Peyton Manning
    Most people call Peyton the best regular season QB of all time. And again....this maybe correct. The stats obviously say that Peyton is a great QB....and I'm not calling him a "bust" by any stretch of the imagination.

    But the "best regular season QB of all time" line is not really a compliment. There is always a "but" to begin the next sentence. And that sentence is "But....he under-performed (and some people say "choked") in the playoffs."

    And with the Russel Wilson vs. Aaron Rodgers comment.....3 games isn't exactly a great sample size to go with. How many times have Brady and Manning played? A uva lot more than 3 games........

    This post makes it seem like Joe Montana is the only answer to the "Who is the GOAT" question.....It's not that easy my friend.

    Tom Brady also deserves consideration....and IMO Tom Brady is the GOAT.

    Tell me this Avante. Is it harder to win now or when Joe played? What I mean is are the players bigger, stronger, and faster today? Or 30 years ago?
    It works both ways Are Brady's offensive teammates not bigger, stronger, faster than Joe's?

    And you might be correct. But just because you "saw him play every game" doesn't sway my opinion one way or the other.

    But you still haven't answered my question. Is it harder to win today or 30 years ago? Also....did the 49ers deal with roster changes due to "free agency" like the Patriots have? If you're going to be fair about this conversation.....all these things should be considered.
    It works both ways. Did Joe not face defenses that did not deal with roster changes?

    Of course they are. And that is a legitimate critique....

    But it still doesn't change my initial claim that it is harder to win today than it was 30 years ago.....

    did you include Kansas City years or will it make your argument fail if you do
    OP asked specifically about his coach and roster in SF. I answered it.

    The Patriots played in the SB within 5 years of drafting Brady. Chiefs hadn't made the AFC le Game in 25 years

    Quarterbacks could be legally knocked out in Joes time. Today you can't hit a QB high, low or viciously

    And it's extremely easy to pass offense. Which is why we have players like Wilson, Newton, Kaepernick being successful.

    It's easier to Quarterback today

    There have been thousands of guy play QB in the NFL, so who do we know/hear about?

    "Slingin' " Sammy Baugh
    Otto Graham
    Johnny Unitas

    We are talking about 40 years there and only three or so that made a real impact. Well Peyton Manning, Tom Brady, Joe Montana all made a huge impact. There is no discussion of great QB's without them.

    Joe Montana had an uncannny knack for knowing exactly where his receivers would end up. He had the mental aspects of game totally down. The best I've ever seen.
    cosigned. Kurt Warner and P. Manning are also two of the best I've seen at hitting guys in stride, right where they are supposed to be. Rodgers is closest to Montana I've seen in being able to scramble, throw from awkward angles and still be accurate.

    good article on how Brady and Joe Cool compare. Montana still comes out on top (i figured this was common sense but if people want some numbers)

    from the article
    In their best five statistical seasons, Brady played with 15 pro bowlers on offense (3 per year) and 6 all pros, including Randy Moss in his best year. Montana played with 12 pro bowlers (2.4 per year) and 3 all pros (two being Rice in 1987 and 1989). For what it’s worth, Montana only played with Rice in two of his top five statistical seasons, Rice was a rookie in #6, and Montana was in KC for #7.
    but but brady has no help

    this next one is interesting and was always a gut feeling of mine.
    It’s an interesting phenomenon. Three of Joe Montana’s Super Bowl les came in his five best passing seasons. None of Brady’s have. It’s almost like the Patriots have been better in other areas in years they have won the le, to compensate for a little less offensive firepower.
    ouch, stings a little bit.

    definitely worth reading, it has some other good info.

    another stat comparison/breakdown on how they compare, from nate silver's fivethirtyeight site. Real good read, Brady's numbers are definitely impressive, but based on how they formulated it, they got Montana and Warner above Brady for the postseason.

    One thing to note is Brady's "lost" year in 2008. You gotta figure they would have had a good chance to compete for a le. I don't think Brady was whole until 2010 or so.

    What was the SF defensive ranking in the years they won it?

    a bunch of "stats" that provide little to no explanation for how they came to create these stats doesn't prove jack, as well as some other nonsensical stats that doesn't take 90% of the rest of game situations into account. Highly hilarious that 49er fans would post this, after the excuses for "situations" that you idiots posted earlier in this thread " montana got robbed by a call montana got robbed by a lucky play etc etc..." but ignores the fact that Brady in both SBs that the Pats lost, got his team to a late lead in the game, only for the defense to fail miserably by allowing the Giants to score with only a few seconds on the clock, while giving up what are arguably the two greatest and luckiest SB catches of all time (Tyree and Manningham).

    Situations can go back and forth, but fact is both QBs are/were natural winners, won 4 SBs, won 2 MVPs, and 3 SB MVPs. You can make washout arguments for eras saying "It was a bit harder to pass in Montana's day" and "Defenses are much stronger, faster, and CLEARLY more strategic/sophisticated in Brady's day". You can make washout arguments that "Montana was a bit more mobile" and "Brady is bigger with a stronger arm". Then you can make counter arguments "Montana was the beneficiary of a transcendent system" and "Brady got protected by refs from cheap shots". Both were comeback kings, with fantastic stats for both, although Brady has a slight edge, but lets call it a wash. Both had comparable teams through their careers, although from about 09-13 the general talent Brady had was worse than anything Montana had, but lets just say that's a wash too, for the sake of you crybaby 49er fans/joe apologists. Both had generally fantastic playoff careers, but occasionally had awful performances as well, even getting outplayed by mediocre QBs in playoff games, with arguable "choke jobs" for each.

    Here are the facts. Brady has clearly better, and more efficient stats while being more durable and long lasting. Brady also has better records both in the playoffs and regular season. Brady got his team farther in the playoffs more frequently than Montana did as well.

    Brady > Montana

    No proof to show otherwise, other than some junk stats that were clearly pulled together for the sole sake of trying to make Montana look superior in certain situations. I could go and find about 15 articles doing the same for Brady. Your best argument, was yet again, a wash.

    Facts are facts.

    Sorry.

    what a got

    Kindly kill yourself after your 18 vanishes throughout this thread after you posted clearly incorrect material to "prove" Montana > Brady.
