Joe Montana Talks Super Bowl, Purdy vs Garoppolo vs Trey Lance, More w/ Rich Eisen | Full Interview 

Different era. When Joe played the D could destroy a QB and no flags.

Joe was great but in the end, he only won 4 Conference Championships, and the 4 Super Bowls. Brady won 10 Conference Championships and 7 Super Bowls, MVP of 5 of them. Yes they could hit the QB in the 80's but there also wasn't free agency and Joe didn't lose his best players every few years to other teams.

I’ll take Joe all day any day

Love Joe too but no way Brady # 1 .

HY TOM BRADY TB12 IS THE GOAT/BOAT OF ALL TIME! - EPISODE III TOM BRADY TB12 THE GOAT/BOAT vs billybob - PART II Patriots Defense: 2001: 13th 2002: 15th 2003: 2nd 2004: 6th 2005: 28th 2006: 7th 2007: 10th 2009: 14th 2010: 23rd 2011: 30th 2012: 17th 2013: 20th 2014: 12th 2015: 11th 2016: 16th 2017: 31st 2018: 19th 2019: 1st Look/Search - Footballoutsiders stats Nfl team-efficiency 2020 2001: The offense went from 25th in 2000 to 6th in scoring offense 2003: The defense allowed 29 points to Jake Delhomme and the Carolina Panthers in the Super Bowl 2004:The only time the defense legitimately can claim credit for winning the Super Bowl 2007: The defense gives up the David Tyree catch in the 4th quarter of the Super Bowl after Tom Brady took the lead 2011: Tom Brady's worst defense in his career 2014: Tom Brady came back from the largest deficit (at the time) in Super Bowl history against the legion of boom throwing 2 touchdown passes in the 4th quarter 2016: Tom Brady came back from down 28-3 in the Super Bowl while playing a perfect 2nd half 2017: The defense allows 41 points to Nick Foles 2018: The defense allowed 29.5 PPG through the first 2 rounds of the playoffs and it took Tom Brady averaging 34 PPG through the first 2 rounds to even make the Super Bowl if the defense was the reason for half the wins? Then how does Brady have 5 Superbowl MVP's 1 Edelman 1 Branch. Maybe of Brady's 2 Superbowls the defense was probably the main reason they won. Maybe 2 Superbowls, with a ratio of (60%def-40%off.). However even then Brady has 6 game winning drives in the 4th quarter or OT in ALL Superbowl wins. That's all time ALL TIME clutch. If you want to get technical he got the lead or tie late in the 4th quarter of ALMOST EVERY SUPERBOWL he played in. 9 of 10!!

Literally just saying he is so calm and collected, it has made his sportscasting career harder as he came off bland. He gave it a go for a while, but never found groove for tv. Just chill dude, and didn’t pop in that way.

Lost all respect for Joe, his dissing the 🐐🐐🐐 TB12 is unforgivable....this is how old angry bitter men end up, as haters

I can listen to shoot or watch him play every day. Greatest game b4 Mahomes Denver Monday night.

Gonna have to look that up now

It would be great if they retired that John Candy question, we've heard that story so many times...

Not just a home invader, someone trying to kidnap his grandchild. At 64 years old. Legend

Omg when did that happen?

Wait what? That’s a story!

Exactly how we want to see the legends👍🏽

just like he played.

They would have won all of them 😂

Giants might only have no SB wins until Coughlin.

Not necessarily. Remember the rules are the same for all the QBs regardless of the era. But the fact that playing QB was a lot tougher back then makes him the GOAT in my eyes. People will argue that it's Brady, but Brady started twice as many games and played for 7 seasons longer and that's probably due to having far more protection from the rules. What really impressed me about Joe was his accuracy... just watch the Denver SB... every pass was in the bread basket, including the bombs to Jerry and John in full stride.

Yeah theres no doubt about it…its because of what happened to guys like Joe and Steve injury wise that they started protecting qb’s. Following the model that the NBA did with Jordan.

FACT!!!

Very memorable game. The Eagles were pounding Joe for three quarters but he turned it around. It was an amazing display and showed that Buddy Ryan’s defense approach was flawed and could be beaten.

The GOAT

And who made the 1st Td to start that comeback ? Trivia ...?????

Haven't heard many Eagle fans say nice things about the Niners... Joe was an awesome QB

@@user-nm2hb5lg6z I never saw that game, was it number 80?

Yes, the fav! Forever!

The John Candy story gets better every time

Yes. Joe is, the favorite of all time for a lot of Niners fans.

Which makes him the greatest of all time!

Agreed. I often rewatch the SB against Denver... every pass including the bombs had a perfect spiral, every one of them in the bread basket and without Jerry or John having to break stride whilst a full tilt!

Brady the Only Goat.

@@joseywales898 Nice one.

Not undefeated in conference championships...only won 4 of them. Had a few one and dones in the playoffs. Brady won 10 Conference championships.

@@TedlinksChannel and when Montana shows up to the Super Bowl, he has a winning percentage that is perfect. What’s Brady’s? (I love Tom Brady btw).

@@TedlinksChannel stop dick riding tom. this isnt a competition lol

@@BMXTraining Tom made it more often though because he wasn't getting bounced out of the playoffs as often prior to the superbowl. Perfect records are great and all, but the goal is to win the whole thing, and Tom has done that more than any other player by far. Montana is right behind him as the 2nd greatest ever, but Tom is number 1.

He hasn’t been eclipsed by Brady at all. 😂 Brady’s not even better than Joe’s backup.

This always seemed a weird back and forth for fans nowadays. The need to rate players who essentially played a different game. Thats like saying running back XXX from today is better than Jim Brown.

Craig , like Rice, owe a lot more to Joe. Craig owes everything to Bill Walsh.

NFL is committing a crime by blocking Roger Craig from the HOF.

Roger not being in the HOF is a travesty... and so is John Taylor.

Great player. But he was a *fumbler*. At the most inopportune moments. If Craig doesn't fumble during the 1990 NFC Championship, Montana likely has another Super Bowl. Fumbling is really bad news, as turnovers win games. Mike Alstott was one of my favorite backs. But he was a fumbler (due to a wrist injury) early in his career as well.

Really ? He must've change his ways ? I have a friend who is also a 9ers Fan like myself. Say the opposite ..more like he was a dick ..

@@user-nm2hb5lg6z I'm a niner fan and met him! He was so cool and chatted with me and sign autographs for my two sons!

@Mel Turnboo yea my friend too, went to a autograph meet n greet here in Las Vegas. Said his experience wasn't good at all..long story short he called out Joe and after cool heads prevailed..Joe did the right thing n signed the ball

My dad switched to KC fan from San Fran when they let him go

@@superman6338 not comparing but it's hilarious that Derek Carr fans will do the same wherever Derek goes 😬 lol

@@superman6338 so your dad is a bandwagon fan 😂

@@FishingWithDad94 yep

The elbow injury and Steve Young screwed Joe over. He should have at least 5.

@@askmeificare5557 Circumstances not withstanding, in many ways, without Montana’s run, l probably never would have gotten as deeply involved in the NFL and would have cared less about the Brady era. I bet Marino in the 83/84 Super Bowl which taught me to pay more attention during the season. A great game, nonetheless.

Tom's longevity over Jie could easily be attributed to the era. There was far less protection from the zebras back then. That 15 year period from '80 to '95 was the greatest QB era for me... Montana, Marino, Thiesmann, Elway, Aikman, Young...

Well, Tom Brady never got his back broken...

@@joannleichliter4308 l am not sure how this relates to anything currently being discussed. But seeing your into potentially career-ending/life-altering injuries, l’d go with the 2008 ACL that, in the final analysis, barely even altered his GOAT trajectory. And it was pretty gruesome. The man is tough as nails and proved his mettle time and time again.

I was... and damn right you do! It was beautiful to behold.

I was an adult, and it was great.

Weird how it's better to lose in the playoffs or miss them all together than make it to the Superbowl

Terry Bradshaw as well.

@@crustytoenail1110 I agree, it's a poor argument. 4-1 is better than 4-0.

And never ever intercepted...Joseph Cliford Montana.
