NFL analyst: Favre, Romo overrated

[Rack]

Sal's a sports analist, not analyst.

montana overrated?

um... no.

montana was awesome. (and young was very, very good, too.)

not only that, but i don't think that anyone (or many) failed to take into consideration the value of jerry rice. montana was just money, plain and simple.

Montana is one of the most overrated QBs in NFL history. Plain and simple.

i am missing steve young on that list

 

[FuzzyLumpkins]

Why is Romo even on this list? He just played one full season.

Putting him on this list was idiocy.

Hes an Eagles fan.

The one that deals in reality, apparently.


By the way, you do understand the definition of "Overrate", right?

Are you really surprised someone questioned you?

I know where both sides are coming from but I am 51% with your side.

I guess Farve's NFL record 3 straight NFL MVPs were a Mistake, with those MVPs how can u be overrated, something that no other QB has ever done......Oh did I say he threw for over 50,000 yards and 400 tds...

Man I hope Romo doesn't put up Brett Farve type numbers, over his career or he really would be overrated, probably number 1 all time

 

[03EBZ06]

I think Sal is overrated.

Apparently you understand the difference in reality and the one you live alone in.

Joe Montana, selected by the San Francisco 49ers in the third round of the 1979 National Football League Draft, had a stellar career with the 49ers and Kansas City Chiefs. A master of late-game comebacks, Montana directed his teams to 31 fourth quarter come-from-behind wins during his illustrious career, including a 92-yard drive in the closing seconds of Super Bowl XXIII.
His uncanny ability to bring a team back from apparent defeat was so common that it simply became referred to as “Montana Magic.” A true student of the game, Montana won the NFL’s passing title in both 1987 and 1989. He topped the NFC in passing five times (1981, 1984, 1985, 1987, and 1989).

Thirty-nine times he passed for more than 300 yards in a game, including seven times in which he surpassed 400 yards. His six 300-yard passing performances in the post-season are an NFL record. He also owns the career playoff record for attempts, completions, touchdowns, and yards gained passing.

Eleven times the New Eagle, Pennsylvania native led his team to the playoffs. Along the way, he captured nine divisional championships and victories in Super Bowls XVI, XIX, XXIII, and XXIV. His outstanding play in Super Bowls XVI, XIX, and XXIV earned him Most Valuable Player honors in each game.

Named All-NFL three times and All-NFC on five occasions, Montana was voted to the Pro Bowl eight times, which was a league record for a quarterback at the time. In 1992, after missing 31 consecutive games due to an injury to his throwing arm, Montana made a dramatic comeback. In the second half of the regular season finale, a Monday Night Football offering vs. the Detroit Lions, Montana performed his magic of old, completing 15 of 21 passes for 126 yards and two touchdowns as the 49ers defeated the Lions 24-6.

In 1994 Montana became just the fifth quarterback to pass for more than 40,000 yards in a career. At the time of his retirement, he ranked fourth in career passing yardage (40,551 yards), attempts (5,391), and passing touchdowns (273). His 3,409 completions ranked third all-time, and his career passer rating of 92.3 was second all-time.

Are you sure you haven't lost blood from a gunshot wound today?

Too Soon?

I would think Mcnabb should be in the overrated category.
I mean what has he done in the biggest games in his career with the Eagles??
Mr chunky soup always acts like he is happy go-lucky and loose before every game but when he has bad games or when the game is real physical he leaves the game with an injury or begs off the field.

 

[percyhoward]

He's obviously one of those guys who travels a lot. You've seen the commercials. He works in places like Sao Paolo and San Antonio.

A place called Sal Paolantonio.

I can't stand Montana and the 49ers as much as the next Cowboys fan but that statement you made is insane! Montana's not overrated, most folks think he's the greatest of all time or in the top 2 or 3 and that's about the right rating for him. But I guess everyone's got an opinion!
