After all the selling out, and through the Townshend 'God knows what he did, to whom, if anyone, and why' era... The Who's still my rock 'n roll band. Beyond that I don't really have a clear-cut #2. Notables? - kinks, Mudhoney, nomeansno, Tom Petty, Sex Pistols, Stone Roses, Neil Young, Jefferson Airplane, X, Dinosaur Jr., Fugazi, Grateful Dead, Minutemen, Clash, Yardbirds. A bunch more beyond the dude rock stuff

Washington State. I swear they learn to drive on the left side up there. Stopping burping farting confused cars all over the place.
Living in Portland, when there's a problem, there's either a minivan, Prius, or a Washington plate at the head of it. Combining a Washington plate with a minivan or Prius should be illegal in the other 49 states.

I am so sick of Peyton Manning. Get your giant ass forehead off TV, stop whoring yourself out with papa johns, youve been front and center on sunday broadcast for 2 decades, please just leave the public eye.
It's Fox. Maybe they'd pair him up with Flo from Progressive... and a Pat Summerall HoloBot

I'm hoping bigtime for something like this. Get Rosen, keep Taylor to start the season, and throw every other resource we have at builting a monstrous, deep offensive line.
Let the coaches do what they can with the defense for now and start overhauling that side next year.
If I were the Giants, I'd want something more like 8-9 & 22 plus a 1st next year, so I could see us first trading up to the top 10(losing more capital) to make it happen. I'd still be Thrilled with Rosen, a second/third this year an a second or a couple seconds next year. THRILLED!

Another fargin' Hochuli... promoted to Ref... the same year his old man retires. Smells about as fresh as the dewdrops in my dog's tailpipe.

Kyle Orton was born a few years too early.

Jay Fiedler.
Your point?
To answer the previous poster who asked if there had been a great Jewish QB.
Jay Fiedler also threw a football.

I think it's funny that people counted Nick Foles out in recent years because, supposedly, his brilliant 2013 season was all about Chip Kelly. Yet many of Foles detractors love Montana. Montana was just as much a product of Bill Walsh as Foles was a product of Kelly. Chip didn't throw the ball back in '13! But I digress - this thread is about Brady vs. Montana.
Football is a team sport so I don't care about SB winning percentage as much as I care about the entire body of work. Brady passed for 500+ yards yesterday with 3 TDs and a passer rating of 115. What more can you ask? It wasn't his fault the Pats defense was shredded.
I saw Montana play many times... IMHO, Brady is better. His mastery over an extended number of years is simply amazing.
But if Montana played today, Brady would still be considered his better by most observers.
Why is the 80s the yardstick?
You're probably right that Brady would be considered the better QB if Montana were to play today, but I certainly would not think it'd be by a landslide. But if you take Brady and put him into a world before 'in the grasp' and all the QB protection rules had evolved the general ethics of the game, he would have been a forgotten footnote, I believe.
For better, worse, or whatever, one of the underlying currents of 50's -80's...90's football was to decimate the opposing team's QB. It wasn't until the NFL saw some of their players as 'stars', who needed to be protected... because people want to see stars play, that through force of rules- in the grasp being the most blatant, they set sail on changing the mentality of the game.
Brady time and again shows he gets rattled, bad, under pressure. I don't think he'd be in any discussions if he'd played in Montana's era or before. He's beyond great under the current ruleset, he's mind-blowing scary good, but I couldn't possibly consider him goat. Greatest of his era- you bet your bippy!

As much as it dismays me, I kinda have to stick up for Brady here. The 49ers dynasty existed prior to the current free agency and salary cap restrictions. They were an all star team that stayed together far longer than you'd ever see now. Back then it was them and the Giants and Skins, and everyone else was way behind. Montana was great, but experienced a different league.
Wouldn't that also mean the dominant defenses also had the same continuity in personnel?
I think the 80's 49ers had something similar to the Jordan Bulls. The real heavyweights, Lakers/Celtics & Cowboys/Steelers, had laid to rest and there wasn't much of an established contender left. The Patriots are just a boring machine weeding through the entrails of the game of football. Greatest of all time my earlobe

Yeah, seriously. I've basically liked his announcing over the years, but tonight he was gulping the TB12 solution or something. He was even rubbing off Michaels there towards the end.

Good hot sauce, football, the greatest comeback ever, and a fine coach to boot.
I'd call that a life well lived. )

Vinatieri for the Tuck Rule win, Vinatieri for the SB win, Vinatieri, Vinatieri, loss to Giants, loss to Giants, Pete Carroll, Kyle Shanahan, loss to Eagles.
Granted, by all rights they should have beaten the Giants at least once, but in the end, Brady is no Montana. And for whatever other thoughts on Montana to Rice, he won with Freddie Solomon and Earl Cooper, and no Ronnie Lott.

I'm more of a gut guy when it comes to football. Nix was a good gut guy surrounded by a confused owner who made him work with the modern, stupid, analytics children. Shoot, he was even forced to hire Whaley. I feel for the guy- he got his GM shot, only to get his vision trampled upon by pointless, stupid, people influencing a senile, cheap, owner.

Kyle's not retiring after getting his first taste of the post-season and seeing how close the Jags came to the SB... and the OP is quite a weird soul. My source is between my ears.
