Check the record, SF had a great D during their SB run, that doesn't diminish Montana's career, BTW he had a couple of horrible playoff games over the course of his career.
Trying to compare Brady at this point in his career with Montana's entire career is unfair, however the FACTS are that Brady's first 6 years as a starter are the best in NFL history.
BTW Vinateri's replacement didn't miss a FG during the playoffs this year and was better on kickoff's in today's game.
Vinateri's replacement is very good and he has a strong leg.
