But what some Montana fans are saying here - I'd just like to remind them not getting to SUper Bowls counts against a guy too.
Further Montana takes hits - or his small body- it's not Brady's fault in tough physical games he is able to hang in while Montana is on his way to the hospital.
Physical defenses affected Montana too. The Gmen were 3-2 vs Montana in the playoffs. ANd Montana had the goat WR and Craig and at the time Walsh was considered a genius too. ANd Montana had a super OLINE for a time too and a better rb in Craig for a while.
Actually... They are in my top 4 but I put Elway at the top. He was the best QB I have ever seen in live action. He willed those early Bronco teams to those Super Bowls. I have Elway 1 and Montana 2... lol. But I see completely valid arguments for most of those that enter the discussion... lol
belongs to Ninester, claiming that Brady's "four years with Moss" is pretty much a wash with Montana's "6 years with Rice."
Hardee har har, Ralph Cramden would have chuckled at that comparison.
During the six seasons Montana threw to Rice as his #1, Rice had about 450 receptions for over 7,500 yards. In the "4 seasons" Moss caught passes from Brady, he had almost 260 catches for almost 4,000 yards. Well, not really! One of Moss's 4 seasons with the Pats - 2008 - was the year Brady missed with his reconstructive knee surgery. Moss caught balls from Matt Cavanugh that year. So let's recalculate that to Moss caught less than 200 passes from Brady, over 2 years really for almost 3,000 yards. Not comparable at all to what Rice contributed to Montana's career
Niners Homer boy calls that "a wash". Sure. Gotcha! Not exactly!!!

I won't debate one against the other but let me tell you what I think...
What????????????
I thought there was a lot more of chatter pro Montana while not as much Brady.
I'll throw in pro Montana-- he gets out of the pocket and is sensational. I remember vs the GMen 1st playoffs he made a huge play by scrambling up the sideline then he faked he was going out of bounds then ran up the field for a lot more. Crafty bastard!!!!!!!!!
With Brady you can bust him up the middle without worrying if he tried to break out. Not so with Montana.
For me personal opinion Montana and Brady are the best two
