After years of indirectly answering the question, NFL Hall of Fame quarterback Joe Montana finally referred to Tom Brady as the “GOAT” (Greatest Of All Time).
Speaking with ESPN’s First Take program earlier this week, Montana publicly acknowledged for the first time that Brady has surpassed him.
“I think Tom has taken his place on the top up there a long time ago”, Montana said.
“He’s had a tremendous career, he’s fun to watch. Everybody always contests over that, but I think if you look at what Tom has been able to accomplish in his time that he’s played, I think it puts him definitely up there at the top of the list.
