Sports Betting NFL Legend David Carr Says That Joe Montana Is Not A Top 10 Quarterback

There are unpopular takes and there are asinine takes. This take falls onto the latter. Does anyone remember David Carr? Of course you don’t. Carr put on a 49ers uniform during the Mike Singletary days and saw game action for an injured Alex Smith during all of three quarters. That was enough for the 49ers to decide to put third stringer Troy Smith in at quarterback while Alex Smith recovered. Carr’s time in San Francisco will be remembered for one chant.

Well, Carr is out of the NFL and an analyst for NFL.com while his younger brother, Derek tries to not follow in his footsteps. Though the word “analyst” should be used loosely because because when they talked about the top-10 quarterbacks of all time Carr left 49ers hall of famer Joe Montana out. Just omitting him could leave our imaginations to do the rest, but Carr attempted explaining why:

“I’ve been in the pocket, I understand. Bill Walsh is a genius, Bill Walsh is a genius, and Joe Montana arrived at precisely the right time just like the white wizard Gandalf, he arrives precisely when he intends to. Joe Montana showed up from Notre Dame. Bill Walsh is a genius. The defenses they were facing were not even close to being ready for this. This was a walk in the park. This was 7-on-7 against junior high kids. They had no idea what they were seeing with the shifts, and the motions, and the ball out on time. Steve Young is a far better quarterback.”
