I find it humorous / interesting that Brady is being compared w/ Montana. Am I surprised? No. does it even matter? No. but two points I want to expose. Then hear your comments.
1) aren’t many “great” QBs a product of the “system” that they play under (i.e. the coach)? Montana did very little after going to KC. He played under one of the greatest masterminds of offensive football, Walsh. And Young played under Walsh’s protégé. Look at the myriad of positively – impacting assistant coaches of Walsh that have evolved into good head coaches. The football world is so much better because of Walsh. Montana included. Did Montana have good skills? Absolutely. But they couldn’t be showcased, w/o Walsh’s system and tutelage so that Montana could gain such a mutli – dimensional appreciation for the game, (calling audibles, reading coverages, etc.). and it wasn’t just Montana. It was Rice, Craig, etc.
