He's been to 10 and won 7 joe won 4 with a juggernaut of a team that was helped by having no salary cap. Its not really close anymore even at 5 it was debatable 6 and 7 sealed it.
Being the best quarterback ever doesn't involve losing 3 Super Bowls like Tom Brady did. It also doesn't involve being a game manager for multiple SBs and letting your kicker win it instead of beating down teams like Joe Montana did. Brady also was embarrassing against the rams. No tds and 13 whole points.
Also Joe Montana did not have much talent around him the first two Super Bowls on offense yet everybody makes the hilarious assumption that he had some juggernaut of an offense. Tom Brady had three pro bowl receivers in this Super Bowl and his defense won it for him in at least 3 SBs now. Not to mention the tuck rule.....that was a SB that should of been the raiders advancing. It's hilarious how people try to argue about the non salary cap when the teams in the 80s were so much better. They were dynasties. Brady can't even beat Eli Manning at the Giants with Randy moss and Wes Welker yet Joe Montana can lay 55 points on the number one defense and beat John Elway Dan Marino Like it's nothing.
Not to mention the rules favor the quarterback so much in this age. Joe Montana would never lose to Nick Foles or Eli Manning and he would sure as hell score a lot more points on those teams then Tom Brady did..
anyways this is common sense but people like to argue without that. Now if they just said Tom Brady is the best quarterback and the goat at staying healthy and playing 20 years that's one thing but Montana won 4 Super Bowls in less time than Tom Brady did. This is just a matter of staying healthy for longer. So good for Brady. He is still my second favorite quarterback ever and I love his attitude. But the greatest quarterback of all time does not lose three Super Bowls. I guess I just have higher standards no big deal.
