I think he's slightly overrated when we're talking "GOAT". He's definitely not better than Montana.
Its no different than Jordan vs LeBron

"But at least he got there". I know Brady has 5 to montana's 4, but seriously...
Montana is Jordan
Brady is LeBron

Montana's SB Stats:
83 completions, 122 attempts, 68.03 completion%, 1142 yards, 9.36 YPA, 11 TDs, 0 INTs, 127.8 Passer Rating, 4-0
Per game: 20.75 completions, 30.5 attempts, 285.5 YPG, 2.75 TDs

Brady's SB Stats:
207 completions, 309 attempts, 67.00 completion%, 2071 yards, 6.7 YPA 15 TDs, 5 INTs, 95.3 Rating, 5-2
Per game: 29.57 completions, 44.14 attempts, 295.9 YPG, 2.14 TDs, 0.71 INTs

That's in a passing era vs Montana's era that didn't tilt towards the offense. Also 6.7 YPA is literally bottom 10 while 9.36 goes into MVP category.

Personally this is how I view it, if you're saying in 2000 you can have your pick of any QB in this era to start...you'd pick Manning before Brady.

When people try and put Montana in the Brady Peyton(or even Bress Favre Marino Unitas Elway)
conversation you know not to take their opinion seriously.

He belongs in the Bradshaw Starr category. Very Good QB on Great Teams

He’s LIGHT YEARS better than Montana.

Joe Montana IS the most over-rated player in NFL history and was the absolute DEFINITION of a “system quarterback”.

The problem with this is these 2 dudes have played, what, 500 games combined, maybe 600. But the comparison is coming down to a total of 11 games.

Not a fan of comparing who is better that way.
