That's a cute quote...but I'll take the rings, the achievements, the leadership & the success.
Hence Montana > Marino.
Brady > Manning.

The rings, the achievements, the leadership & the success? Bill Walsh has all those things too, and his opinion is the same as mine. Go figure. Don't you wonder why the guys own coach says that Marino was better? Is it something personal, or does he really think it, and if he does, doesn't it say something about how important the QB is to the team compared to how important the team is to the QB.
My opinion's been the same for years. A great team can win a ring with out a great QB. A great QB cannot win a a ring with out a great team. Many think its the great QB that makes the team great. I seem to think that more often than not it's the great team that makes the QB great. And I've seen too many "great" QBs look horrible on bad teams and incredible on great teams to ever change my mind.

He didn't say Marino was better in that quote. He said Marino was "Peyton Manning" & Montana was "Tom Brady".
& Brady is better than Peyton...so my opinion (and everyone else's) remains the same.

You really need to go back to high school, and like, graduate. I mean you have no concept of the english language. Which isn't a shocker, because you have no concept of Football either. You called the 07 Pats D terrible and now you think that quote means anything other than Marino was better. The product of a system implies he wouldn't be great without it. Juxtaposing that by calling the other player a system all to himself implies no matter where he played or with what team he would still be great. He's saying Joe could never have done these things without me (me as in him Bill Walsh), and Dan could have been great anywhere.
And even before seeing this quote I used to say if Montana was on the Bucs he'd look worse than Steve Young looked on the Bucs.

But he played great in the system...and actually won. Like more than anyone else. That actually happened. Those events actually took place in the world we...or at least I...live in. He was more productive in the system than Marino was trying to put the team on his back...more successful....BETTER. What in God's green Earth don't you understand about that?
AND DONT YOU DARE RESPOND WITH IMAGINARY, FANTASY ROSTERS THAT DIDNT EXIST IN THIS SPACE-TIME CONTINUUM.
I do find it funny that you get way more personal than you used too. Manning finally having everything you've cried for years he lacked and STILL get his ass annihilated in the biggest game of his career has destroyed your equilibrium in life.
