I would say Montana. He was short, had no scrambling ability and an average arm. Yet he got the job done. He made the Niners dynasty what it was. Without him, there wouldn’t have been a dynasty.

Not to say Bradshaw wasn’t as equally important to his team, but he had the Iron Curtain and Franco Harris to take some of the load off. Montana had Craig and Rathman who were a rushing threat. Just not as much as Harris. 49ers “D” was good, but not as good as Pitt.

Montana vs Bradshaw?  
Year TM | G | Comp Att PCT YD Y/A TD INT | Att Yards TD  
Terry Bradshaw  
TOTAL | 168 | 2025 3901 51.9 27989 7.2 212 210 | 444 2257 32  
Joe Montana  
TOTAL | 192 | 3409 5391 63.2 40551 7.5 273 139 | 457 1676 20

by pure numbers, it’s Joe Montana. only 24 more games, but about 1400 more completed passes, and 71 FEWER interceptions.

but then again, Bradshaw’s rushing team was incredible.

the real question: who is the better TV personality? lol THAT’S Bradshaw by far.

after looking at those numbers posted up there, its damn impressive that montana threw for so many more completions yet still managed alot less ints!

oh and yes bradshaw had good running games, but i wouldn’t say sf ever really had a “bad” running game while montana was there, no?

Roger Graig was a solid back for sure…Montana had Jerry Rice and John Taylor while Bradshaw had Lynn Swan and John Stallworth…WR are pretty equal but the difference was Brett Jones and Dwight Clark at TE for Montana

I watched a special on him on ESPN. They went through his entire career and how he was never given a solid shot at a starter. This was from like high school, college and the pros. He was barely a 4th string QB when he started in N.E., then hes superbowl MVP… It was nuts what he overcame to become what he is today. Which I think is really cool, but I still hate him. Respect him, but hate him :lol:
