when brady gets SB win #5, he will be the undisputed GOAT
I'm too young to have seen Montana play. He was off to KC before I started watchin football.
But what I do know is I can't imagine anyone playing any better than TFB is right now. Like someone said in a thread a few weeks back he's like a robot. His mechanics are flawless, his pocket presence, his play action fake is much better than it has been the last few years, right up there with what it was when he came into the league. His sneaks, his reading the D and changing protection/audibling. His leadership... I could go on and on.
We are truly lucky football fans to get to watch this guy play.
Who is better? I really would have to reserve my judgment until Brady's career is over. Right now, he is definitely worthy of the comparison, that's for sure.
If you're evaluating the greatness of players by the Super Bowl records, then Bradshaw = Montana. You chose the parameters. I responded with a question to see if you were being consistent. That's all.
I chose that parameter to compare the two because the passing statistics and winning percentage between Brady and Montana are comparable. The passing statistics between Bradshaw and either of these two players are not as comparable.
I'm too young to have had the opportunity to watch Montana in the way that I can watch Brady, so I guess I shouldn't even be making the comparison. But, I'll stand by what I said. If and when Brady gets his fourth Super Bowl title, I would rank him above Montana.
EDIT: Punctuation
You're contradicting yourself when you use the # of SB's as an indicator and then further shoving your foot in your mouth by saying you were too young to have even watched Montana play, but yet say he's better than Brady because he won 4 SB's.
Having seen Montana play I would always lay the title of GOAT on him, but to be quite honest the more I watch Brady(having almost won his fourth due to that fateful last drive) I am almost convinced it is arguably Brady even now. To think, the guy is just hitting his peak.
