Message: [QUOTE="OrangeDW, post: 2896244, member: 2458"] As far as Brady being the best QB ever, I’m not sure it’s even possible to determine that. The NFL might as well be a different sport now from what it used to be. I’m not talking about nutrition and athletes being stronger and bigger or whatever...the rules are completely different. The way the game is played is completely different. Brady is the best QB of his era, no doubt. Would he have this longevity in the 80’s? Zero chance. He got sacked like once all postseason this year. Compare that to what defenses were doing to QBs back then. Look at those hits Leonard Marshall and Jim Burt we’re putting in Montana. Look at how many receivers were on the field and how they were lined up and how teams were allowed to defend them. It’s an impossible comparison. Brady, Montana, and I assume Unitas are the best of those 3 distinct eras, IMO. [/QUOTE]
