Guess it depends on the game I guess and what elements it was being played in. Like I wouldn’t want Brees playing against a dominant interior pass rush as that tended to be his kryptonite.

As much as it pains me to say, it would have to be Brady. The record speaks for itself. Although I think Rodgers is the most talented and I’m old enough to remember all of them playing except Unitas.

Brady. He has a horseshoe up his arse and magical unicorn things like officiating seem to rainbow pots of gold his way.

Statistically in big games there are only TWO quarterbacks that should be on this list all-time

1. Montana
2. Warner

Those two dudes turned into freaks of nature, putting up Madden numbers in BIG games.

It sure seems that way with the dude, and I'm on board that he is the GOAT NFL QB.

However, if that one game we're talking about is the Super Bowl, I look at what two guys have done in those games, especially critical moments. Not the Brady's hasn't excelled in those games as well and in the moments, but...

Montana: Look at his last three SBs. Miami: Set the SB record for most rushing yards by a QB and spearheaded a dominant 21 point 2nd Q to put the Dolphins out of the game before halftime. Cincy: SB record for passing yards, two TDs passes in the 4th Q with the game winning drive at the end. Denver: 5 TDs, 0 INTs. Need one say more? SB career of 11 TD passes, 1 TD run, ZERO INTs. ZERO Fumbles Lost.)

Another one to consider not on OPs list (for SB game only)...

Terry Bradshaw: Yes, Steel Curtain defense, but his performance in his final three SBs. Cowboys (1st matchup): 2 TDs, 0 INTs. Throws the game winning TD, a 64 yard perfect bomb to a covered Lynn Swann, while getting his arse knocked out of the game. Cowboys (2nd matchup): 4 TDs, 1 INT in a shootout with another all-time great, Roger Staubach. Rams: He struggled, but in the 2nd half, Steelers took control and pulled away due to three key deep thrown balls by Terry Bradshaw.

Montana and Bradshaw combined in their 8 SB games:

8-0
20 TD passes
4 INTs
5 SB MVPs

Quite impressive.
