Joe Montana throws shade at Tom Brady by picking Dan Marino as the Greatest QB Ever

Joe Montana does not believe Tom Brady is the GOAT.

A matter of fact in a recent interview with Men’s Health, the 49ers star quarterback Joe Montana said he feels another quarterback is the GOAT.

Montana believes the seven Super Bowl rings and 89,214 passing yards ain’t enough to earn the label of “Best of All-Time”. The 49ers legend says Dan Marino, NOT Tom Brady, gets that title from him.

The Hall of Famer said if Marino were playing in today’s era of football, he very well could have done what Brady did, and maybe better.

“Put Marino into today’s game where he gets free release … and his receivers, holy cow, weren’t very big,” Montana said.

“Now these guys are 6’4, 6’5. I think [Marino] is probably one of the most unsung heroes of the game. People don’t talk enough about him or realize the numbers that he put up during the times that he put them up.”

“He had a quick release. I had to step into a lot of things to get enough [force] on the ball.”

“He had the perfect torque of his upper body and strength to deliver the ball quickly at a fast release with accuracy.”
