Yep. After the Tuck sack Brady went 6-17.In super bowl 46 Brady started the game 20/23 199 yards and 2 TDs and 0 INTs. People completely forget this. Then he took a bad sack where he dislocated his non throwing shoulder and the offense no longer did anything. But before that he was almost literally perfect.

sure is.Ughh it’s painful to think about.
SB52 was the greatest QB performance in Super Bowl history. 505 yards passing, 10.5 YPA, 3 TD, 0 INT, 115 rating and absolutely zero margin for error thanks to Belichick's defense getting clowned by Nick Foles of all people. Imagine thinking making a point to Malcolm Butler was more important than winning a football game.Sure, he's the GOAT, but not wrt performance in the SB...that's Montana.
No he didn't.It's too bad Brady didn't show up in SB42 after he guaranteed more than 17 points lol.

No he didn't.
No he didn't make any such guarantee.Sorry, it doesn't match Montana's Super Bowl 24...not even close.
297 yards passing, 5 TDs, ZERO Ints, 147 rating
And Montana got pulled from the game with 11 minutes to go in the 4th quarter. If he played the whole game, he would have gotten 7 TDs lol.
Correct, he didn't show up in SB 42.
No he didn't make any such guarantee.
And yeah Brady's Super Bowl 52 performance was better than Montana's. That game was not competitive. Brady had zero margin for error. He matched the Eagles score for score.
Thank Bill and his defense for that.
Other coaches would get their walking papers for something like that and rightfully so.
That strip sack was on Mason for blowing the protection. When the RG whiffs like that on a pass play then most of the time this will be the outcome. Also remember Brady threw for 505 yards without his #1 receiver for most of the game and had to match the other offense score for score because his head coach deliberately crippled his defense. Montana never had to overcome those challenges in that Super Bowl, it was not competitive.Laughing at an opponent's assertion that the Pats were going to score 17 points is tantamount to a guarantee that you are going to score more than 17 points...did you think Brady was laughing at Plaxico because Brady thought the Pats were going to score only 10 points?
And I said above, Tommy's strip sack fumble with 2 minutes left to in the game disqualifies him from having the greatest SB performance ever. I'm not sure I would put it in the top 5 even.

Are you ever going own up to openly mocking Brady for over 2 years and your signiture picture of him sacked? Why are the only Brady stats you post negative ones? So until you do all we see out of your "intelligent discussion" is "blah, blah, blah. Come on Tommyboy12, answer me. The answer is clear me. I'd just like you to admit it.Sorry, it doesn't match Montana's Super Bowl 24...not even close.

Let's be honest here... Montana is an overrated stiff. He won Super Bowls on the backs of an innovative HC, HOF teammates and great defenses. Take away Joe Walsh, Jerry Rice, Roger Craig, Ronnie Lott, and Charles Haley and Montana would have been his generation's Philip Rivers. SF's passing offense was entirely dependent on fast, highly skilled receivers and YAC. Montana was practically handing the ball off to burners like Rice and Taylor who would pile up stats for average Joe.
Look at what happened with SF's offense after Montana left... it got BETTER! Steve Young, a 1st round bust, looking like a journeyman backup, took over Walsh's west coast offense and promptly made 7 consecutive pro bowls (when it actually meant something), 3 all pros, and won 2 NFL MVP's. Young also blew the doors off Montana's best SB performance with 325 passing yards, 6 TD's, and even led his team in rushing yards.
Take a closer look at what average Joe was doing in the postseason when he wasn't riding the coattails of his HOF head coach and teammates. 3-7 with 13 TD's and 11 INT's. Look at his utterly PATHETIC performance against Buffalo in the '93 AFCCG... 9-23 (39%), 125 yards, 0 TD & 1 INT. He was awful and HE was the reason why KC lost that game. He should have just quit then but he came back for one final humiliating season. At least Brady went out on top unlike average Joe who proved he was NOTHING without the REAL HOFers in SF.
Montana was great. Let's not go all MAC10 logic here. Brady is clearly the GOAT but Montana deserves a lot better than overrated stiff status. He was arguably the GOAT until SB 49. He's been almost lapped since then tboughLet's be honest here... Montana is an overrated stiff. He won Super Bowls on the backs of an innovative HC, HOF teammates and great defenses.

yeah the better debate would be who can be the next Montana cause Tom is not getting touchedMontana was great. Let's not go all MAC10 logic here.
