Joe Montana
Pretty OT, eh? Well, it's playoff time and I've been chatting with guys and, well, Mr. Montana came up and I've been reminiscing. Yeah, I'm old.
I admire superhuman athletic performances. Humans ordinarily cannot leap as high as I can or run as fast and then there's the bullet thing but occasionally somebody turns in a performance that puts goosebumps on even my steel skin. While there have been a number of astonishingly talented quarterbacks over the years my favorite' hands down, is Mr. Montana. Easily. Most of you know why.
I wonder if one of you guys could dredge up a stat for me that I could not find easily. I know that Mr. Montana appeared in four Superbowls. In those performances, he threw for something like 1100 yards, 11 TD's and no interceptions. He won all four. The comeback games are legend. Either you remember this guy, and understand what happened, or you missed it and.........nevermind. He was, without a doubt, the greatest quarterback of all time.
But I don't know what his playoff record was. Winning all four of his superbowl appearances suggests he won plenty of playoff games. And of course, there is the possibility that he may have lost one or two, but I just don't know the ratio of playoff games won versus playoff games played. Anybody know?
