Willis990 Posted January 8, 2007 Posted January 8, 2007 I heard Mike Greenberg on Mike and Mike this AM say he would take Brady over Montana in a big game. What do you guys think? I would take Montana now but if Brady wins one more then I would go with Brady.
RayFinkle Posted January 8, 2007 Posted January 8, 2007 Without question, Brady. If Brady had the receivers Joe had, we wouldn't even be having this conversation.
Hollywood Donahoe Posted January 8, 2007 Posted January 8, 2007 How was Phil Simms' arm? So now you'd take Simms? Make up your mind!
Ozymandius Posted January 8, 2007 Posted January 8, 2007 How's his arm? Wrapped around another man's wife.
ACor58 Posted January 8, 2007 Posted January 8, 2007 I really don't think that you could go wrong with either of them. Everytime that I see Tom Brady play I hate him more and more, and that is a compliment.
Lurker Posted January 8, 2007 Posted January 8, 2007 I'd go with Brady as well. While Montana was the top guy of his era, IMO he was more of a "system" QB than Brady.
Sketch Soland Posted January 8, 2007 Posted January 8, 2007 Everytime that I see Tom Brady play I hate him more and more, and that is a compliment. yes, that is exactly the way i feel. i hate him, but i would never in a million years bet against him because he is that good.
Tcali Posted January 8, 2007 Posted January 8, 2007 I'd go with Brady as well. While Montana was the top guy of his era, IMO he was more of a "system" QB than Brady. Sysytem QB???lol...thats why he played so well at age 38 with a bunch of junk in Kansas City. Brady is great...but you cant say anyone is BETTER than Montana---especially in big games.He was otherworldly in big situations. Montana DID have better talent around him--I agree...but he also had better teams he had to play against since it was pre-salary cap. The fact that Brady is mentioned in the same sentences as Montana is a great compliment to Brady. When Brady marched down the field completey colly and calmly in that Raider game(after he F U M B L E D ) I knew the guy was something special.He was in a zone--no panic at all---that few QBs achieve.

KD in CA Posted January 8, 2007 Posted January 8, 2007 Montana DID have better talent around him--I agree...but he also had better teams he had to play against since it was pre-salary cap. Excellent point. Give the Pats credit for their titles, but have they beaten a single great team in the past 5 years? The NFC of Montana's era had some dominating teams going up against each other every year in the playoffs.
MadBuffaloDisease Posted January 9, 2007 Posted January 9, 2007 Excellent point. Give the Pats credit for their titles, but have they beaten a single great team in the past 5 years? The NFC of Montana's era had some dominating teams going up against each other every year in the playoffs. Not to mention HOF coaches. The only one of this era who can still coach, is Shanahan, and Brady has a 1-9 record against him.
Hollywood Donahoe Posted January 9, 2007 Posted January 9, 2007 Not to mention HOF coaches. The only one of this era who can still coach, is Shanahan, and Brady has a 1-9 record against him. Still, 1-9 is pretty impressive when he's only faced Shanahan six times. Brady isn't even bound by rules of math.
SDS Posted January 9, 2007 Posted January 9, 2007 Still, 1-9 is pretty impressive when he's only faced Shanahan six times. Brady isn't even bound by rules of math. So, Brady and VABills have something in common (other than that whole gay thing)?
MadBuffaloDisease Posted January 9, 2007 Posted January 9, 2007 Still, 1-9 is pretty impressive when he's only faced Shanahan six times. Brady isn't even bound by rules of math. I had heard 1-9. Still, 1-5 makes the point. Imagine if Brady had to also face Belichick. But hey, The Great One will get a chance to prove he was the reason they win, by winning another SB without Weis, Crennel, and especially Vinatieri. Can he do it? Stay tuned.
West Hollywood Donahoe Posted January 9, 2007 Posted January 9, 2007 Without question, Brady. If Brady had the receivers Joe had, we wouldn't even be having this conversation. Not to mention the defenses- Brady has had to carry some of the worst defenses in league to the big game while Montana always had a top Defense to support him.
