And neither did Brady. Or Montana. And other than Tony Eason vs the 85 Bears in SBXX no one else played that strong of a defense in a SB let alone multiple SBs. And Roger also had to get past great LA Rams and Minn Vikings defensive teams in the playoffs. The 71 and 77 Cowboys had great defenses but the 74-78 Steelers might have been the best defense over a long stretch. And Roger had to beat a 77 Denver defense in SBXII that crushed Pittsburgh in the divisional round that year. If not for Jackie Smith's drop and a desperation end zone heave in the closing seconds of SBX Roger would have a 9:3 TD:INT ratio vs four high quality defensive teams in 4 SBs. Brady and Montana never faced the caliber of defensive teams that Staubach faced over their SB careers.

And Staubach played in three of his four SBs before the 1978 rule changes. Only Bob Griese and Fran Tarkenton played in three SBs prior to the rule changes (they went a combined 2-4).

I cant believe how many people are left that seemingly think super bowl wins or record should be the determining factor in these comparisons.

Didn't Danny White punt in 12 and 13? Would have put him in instead of Jett.

Exactly. With that measuring stick, Trent Dilfer is better than Dan Marino.

Well, it is an all-time Dallas Cowboy Super Bowl team, after all. Why wouldn't wins and losses be a major factor?
