Jesus Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 Montana had one of the great supporting casts of all time. His defenses were underrated for their time. That said they might have won more titles had they started Steve Young sooner. JDaveG, Borat, The Great American and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FormerFan-RobertAP Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 13 minutes ago, UGABOZ said: no super bowl stats? so you are defending Matt Ryan cause I would say Ryan has had a great supporting cast Are you serious? How often has Ryan had a run game or a defense to help him? Julio Jones, by himself, is not a great supporting cast. What did Montana have? Jerry Rice, Ronnie Lott, Fred Dean, and Charles Haley. He also had guys who are close, like Roger Craig, Dwight Clark, and Tom Rathman. #1 Defense once, #2 defense three times, #3 defense three times, and a top 10 defense 9 times out of 11 years playing for the 49ers. How many hall of fame players has Ryan had on his team? Tony G for the back third of his career. Alex Mack for the back 3rd of his career. Roddy White, Julio Jones. Anyone on defense? Maybe Grady Jarrett. Where has our defense ranked while Ryan has been here? LOL. What about our run game? We've had a few years with a decent run game, but just as many with a cellar dweller run game. That's not, "great supporting cast." Ryan has achieved some very impressive things, despite having very little help to speak of. Our fanbase craps on him at every turn. It's disgusting. We don't deserve Matt Ryan.

While yes Matt has had great players around him, he has never had the offensive lines, defenses, and the offensive genius of Bill Walsh behind him.

Falcons_Frenzy Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 I'm not a fan of any comparison of players who played with entirely different rules. The NFL was a lot different when Joe Montana played compared to Matt Ryan's years. AUTiger7222 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
