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.
Montana had jack shit in "his" first Super Bowl win. Fewest leading rushing yards ever by a Super bowl winner in a 16 game schedule in an era when rushing was almost as important as passing! Plus he didn't get all the calls like Brady or Mahomes does! His second victory Craig was in his second year only had 600 yards rushing and still no Rice. That team was a BS defensive pass interference call away on Lipps from a perfect season!! A call that probably wouldn't be made in todays NFL. Montana's playoff rating in KC was just a few points lower than Brady's despite playing in an era where QBs and WRs actually needed shoulder pads! That's beside the point. In terms of playoffs there's Starr and then there's everyone else! Period! His playoff numbers are similar to Mahomes, despite playing in an era when there was no passing! No five yard bump, lineman couldn't extent their arms, had to line up on the ball, etc etc etc...

Your obsessive Brady hatred clouds your judgement. "Montana didn't get all the calls like Brady does." <--- Comical.

Hey you pulled a Wikipedia on me! I posted Brady or Mahomes. I guess then I have an obsessive hatred of Mahomes too! Brady's seven "wins" each game the opponent had more penalties/yards than his team. Montana only one Super bowl did the Niners have fewer penalties/yards than their opponent despite have the much better coach. (Can't use the better coach argument anymore Belicheat not all that and surely you cannot argue Arians is better than Ried) Nothing comical, just facts! It seems the reverse is true. Being a homer clouds your judgement as opposed to someone that doesn't have a dog in the fight.

I love how you double quote Brady's SB wins, as if they aren't legit. It's cool... I hate LeBron, so I can relate to despising a player.

Not hate just facts! Although I do hate Mahomes. His flopping is getting out of hand! Allen is just as bad, but he doesn't get all the calls golden boy 2.0 gets! I see enough of it in soccer. Don't need that shit in the NFL.

Sorry for derailing the thread.

I'll try and get things back on track.

Clutch factor/gamer is a real thing.

And this guy just doesn't have it.

[ Michael Wilbon sums it up well ... ]

The Dallas Cowboys could be the single most overrated team in football ... maybe the single most overrated team in all of professional sports in America. The franchise has won one playoff game since 1996. Every acquisition they make, every game they win is overstated. Their players are overly praised. They haven't mattered in a decade nearly as much as the New England Patriots or Pittsburgh Steelers or Indianapolis Colts or even the New York Giants or Philadelphia Eagles in their own division. Every single thing about the Cowboys, in recent years anyway, has been overdone. They come into every season being picked to win something between a division and the Super Bowl but limp out to great disappointment annually.
This season the hype has been attached, most specifically, to the Cowboys' offense, to the supposed damage Romo and Miles Austin, Dez Bryant and Felix Jones are going to do, blah, blah, blah. Yet, the Cowboys looked like a bunch of stumblebums in the preseason, and pretty much the same through three quarters of the regular season opener Sunday night.
And no part of the evening was more humiliating for Dallas than the final play of the second quarter, the one that gift-wrapped a 10-0 lead for the Redskins, a play that should never, ever happen beyond high school.
With four seconds left before halftime, and what should have been a rather insignificant 3-0 deficit, the Cowboys for some dumb reason had Romo drop back and attempt a pass from his own 28. That, in and of itself, is unwise because Romo wasn't far enough up the field to heave the ball into the end zone. The professional thing to do would have been to have Romo take a knee and end the half ... or perhaps hand the ball off to run out the clock ... or perhaps run a legitimate downfield play for the rookie Bryant, just to get him the feel for being in a big-time ballgame.
But no. Romo pitches the ball out, which is dangerous enough. And Tashard Choice, instead of simply going down once he saw no daylight, allowed the ball to be ripped from his arms, which started the play on which DeAngelo Hall ran the silly fumble into the other end zone for a 10-0 Washington lead.
(The Redskins didn't distinguish themselves, exactly, taking a field goal off the board in such a low-scoring affair, a move that would have been examined to death had that Romo touchdown pass stood in the end.)
As is, this serves as a reminder why these Cowboys cannot be trusted, no matter how good they look on paper. It's why the Redskins have every reason to think they can win the NFC East. These Cowboys aren't talented enough or resourceful enough to be a lock to win anything. The Redskins have a more accomplished quarterback, and no matter how likeable Romo is, the point isn't debatable. Jones, among the runners on both teams, is the most explosive, but neither team has a dominant back.

I don’t know about them being THE most overrated team….but every single time I have a wager on them, it’s a loss. I blame it on Dak and if you wanted to talk about the most overrated player ever…..HE would be in the top three.

He makes 15m more than Patrick Mahomes.

Mahomes: 10 year, 450m
Dak: 4 years, 240m

Let that sink in.

Ass Prescott.
