Of course Brady did it with 3 white guys at WR and Montana had Rice and Taylor. Dynasties are over and Brady has done it with a bunch of different guys.

Exactly! The rules are more offense oriented now but Brady plays with a different cast every year cause of the salary cap. Montana had virtually the same players every single year. Also Montana played under the same offensive scheme(west coast). Brady has played under at least 3 different offensive systems in New England(they've run Ehrhardt read and streak, west coast, spread and all combinations of philosphies). Also players are bigger, faster and defenses more complex so everything pretty much evens out. There are truly great players from every era and its extremely hard to compare. I loved Joe Montana. To me him and Brady were about dead even yesterday but Brady elevated himself yesterday. One reason I love this board so much is all this great discussion. Truly fun to be apart of.
