Montana had a career 63.2% completion, Young had a career 64.3%. Considered two of the best QBs of the 80s/90s and they still get sub 65 completion%. That is ludicrous to compare completion % eras.
In 1984, the average top 10 QBs compiled a 62.52 completion %.
In 1985, the average top 10 QBs compiled a 58.72 completion %.
In 2013, the average top 10 QBs compiled a 66.25 completion %.
In 2014, the average top 10 QBs compiled a 66.83 completion %.

When san Fran started running the west coast offense a lot more receptions were made by runnbacks out of the backfield which helped completion %, fast forward to today with the hybrid backs most offense start there.
Back in the day most everything was down field, I would love to watch Marino play in today's NFL, with Marino you had to cover the whole field, and the ball would come out before the defense could turn their hips. Aaron Rodgers is the closest ive seen throw the ball the way Marino slang it
