In fairness, you can't a 6-2 TE when you're a 5-10 CB, especially the way Schuab played today, his placement was perfect "us or no one" that's where most his passes were, either his guy would make the play or no one would, it's like the way Moss always says "just put it up, they can't jump with me". I tell ya, I'm Mora, I consider starting Schuab and putting Vick at HB.

At what point do we start talking about these guys without lumping in past legends? I think both have become they're own legends.
Well, Marino started in 1983 you were 1, he finished in 1999 you were 16.
Montana 1979, you weren't a fetus yet, he finished in 1994 you were 12.

So yeah, you probably saw the "last years" of two of the greatest to play the game.

Players will always be compared with retired players while they're active.

When they both retire, you're right they will be their own legends. For now, it's very similar, the way the play, plus the big reason people mention it is the Superbowls. Marino set all the records, Montana won the "big games".

I'm ok with the comparsions for now, eventually they will go away. Also, keep in mind this is only Brady's 6th NFL season 5th starting. That's been the big Brady debate, is he won so much, so fast (3 rings, 2 mvp's in his first 4 years starting) if he doesn't keep that pace (which he wont) how will that effect "his legened".
