Clutch factor/gamer may not be a measurable stat, but it's as real as any factor and perhaps even the most important intangible in sports. Tom Brady is probably the best example. The bigger the game, the better he played.

Conversely, some guys, for whatever reason, can't handle pressure at all and collapse at the most critical times.

Dak Prescott is what he is and what you see is what you get. No matter how impressive his regular season stats or accolades (another Pro Bowl season) he simply can't get it done when it matters.

Dak will never win a SuperBowl and he and his team, no matter how talented in paper, always fold under adversity.

Every. Single. Year.

Actually Bart Starr is the best example, had a 5 to 1 td to int ratio in an era that such numbers was unfathomable!! Warner, Montana too turned it up a few notches in the playoffs, Brady numbers where actually much better in the regular season, but it doesn't fit the narrative so I get it.

Yes, Joe Montana was the ultimate playoff clutch performer, although his tank was empty by the time he went to KC.

Amazing someone actually wrote an article on this topic.

5. Eli Manning
4. Terry Bradshaw
3. John Elway
2. Tom Brady
1. Joe Montana

The guy that wrote that article is a buffoon! Elway is probably the most over-rated football player ever!! If he didn't play shit all game, and put his team in a hole, he wouldn't have to make a comeback drive! That fact that Starr and Warner are not in the top five shows his idiocy. Based on his perception not facts!

Joe Montana had talent around him that Tom Brady could only dream of having. Additionally he played in the pre free agency era so that talent stayed with him until it didn't whwn he went to Kansas City. What was Joe's record as the starting QB for Kansas City? You may recall that Steve Young stepped into that offense with the same weapons that Joe had and also won a Suer Bowl. And his coach was Bill Walsh, the father of the West Coast Offense, an offense that took the league by storm once other coaches understood it.

Joe Montana was propped up by the excellence all around him in San Francisco.
