Documentary on football quarterback Joe Montana. Includes interviews with teammates, coaches, family and Montana himself: Eddie Debartolo Jr, Carmen Policy, Theresa Montana, Joe Montana Sr, Marty Schottenheimer, Sam Wyche, Dwight Clark
To anyone interested to watch the best ever in football - it was the Bill Walsh Joe Montana combo - completely revolutionized the NFL with two of the most high IQ folks ever to take the field. So as it is revealed in the documentary they had 100 pass plays in a typical game with 3 formations each -- so atleast 300 different combinations with an outlet receiver. Joe memorized those - how crazy is that.... these were the days without radio communications in headsets so a hand signal would come and it was upto the quarterback to recall the play/the formation and let his guys know where to go etc.
Other differences between the 80s and today
The spiking the ball by getting upto the line of scrimmage to stop the clock was not allowed back then - just imagine how many more comebacks Joe would have had if this was allowed
The hits allowed were vicious - simply not allowed today
Defensive backs could impede progress of receivers much more than today
The Bill Walsh system is a work of art - a marvel of precision - insanely complex and so much eye pleasing to watch. Every play had 3 different options to throw with short, intermediate, long and the receivers would be in a moving triangle (hello Phil Jackson!) . They never played shotgun as it was all based on 3 5 7 step drops.
Joe was the best ever at throwing on the run - nobody did it as effortlessly as he did and precisely as he did
Elusiveness the design of the play many times allowed him to stop and then throw the ball evading the pass rusher
And he was the coolest - nothing fazed him - he would get beaten up but still get up and joke with the pass rusher
He had a sense of humor about it him, almost like a schoolkid who loved to play - his big worry was not to get too big a lead as they would bench him and not let him play!
His comebacks are a stuff of legend in an era where the rules didn't favor offense.
He should have won in 1983 if it weren't for phony pass interference calls against defense - that would have been his first 3 peat
In 1990 he got brutally and illegally hit as a defender fell on him and crushed his hand - simply not allowed today - that was the NFC championship and no way they would have lost that would have been his second 3 peat and who knows how many more he would have had
He had 27 surgeries - took a beating and simply was the best ever - the perfect ball placement, the accuracy, the intellect to run that offense was unbelievable.
I’m I’m going on
Great comment.
My first game was in 1976 and my family still has season tickets and I witnessed everything you so eloquently described. Fantastic response, thank you.
2nd 3peat?? What??
Facts. They transformed the game. All teams as nd QBs emulate that niner cast.
Greatest quarterback of all time.
Brady, sorry, and I hate to say it
As a niner fan i wish u were right but im afraid thats brady but idk bc brady was mainly inspired by montana to play fball
You mean Aaron Rodgers buddy
@@tedfio1tedfio1 Joe never threw an Interception in 4 Super Bowl. He is 4-0 with 125 Quarterback Rating. Brady CAN NOT even beat Eli Manning in 2 Super Bowl. I'm Sorry, Joe is the Best.
@@jasonfairbairn5376 Not only Brady is a Cheater, He got Gift from Atlanta & Seahawk Coach. And the First Super bowl, His coach cheated.
Joe is great but the old commercials are amazing.
Came here to say same. That skytel pager ad lol
If Notre Dame was going to do another movie it should be Joe Montana. That would be a awesome Notre Dame story🏈
Love the ending with the late John Madden's comment. Throw the disclaimers away. Joe Montana, the greatest quarterback to ever play...
Peacock is airing a Joe Montana 6 episode series currently. It’s really good.
Greatest Quarterback to ever play the Game
Definitely the best so far, but Aaron Rodgers is a very close second. Brady doesn't count, because i'll never put a cheater on my top list.
Wonderful....Joe NEVER gets the attention he deserves! VERY TOUCHING. Great man great soul and I can't hear enough Bill Walsh wisdom.
Walsh was fucking brilliant. Football IQ was off the charts
Love how he also scouted players for his vision.
Indeed, those were amazing times - 4 tires for $109, mounted and balanced!
Best comment lol .. thought I was only one not skipping the old commercials lol
@@zenlifestyle3667 lol that FedEx commercial "point and click" I didn't remember internet in 1995
Joe is the man!
As a fan of the Dallas Cowboys since 1970, though I rooted against him for the obvious reasons, but I also believe that if you're a true fan of football, you have to recognize greatness, even if they are rivals. I was blessed to have some very good coaches who taught that sportsmanship meant everything. When a player was injured, everybody on both sides took a knee, and cheered the injured player when he walked off the field. Of course I hated it when Joe Montana beat my team. But if you're a fan of the game, that comes with it. You're going to win sometimes and you're going to lose sometimes. That's not just football, that's life. Montana was one hell of a football player and a good man. Not to mention one tough dude.
Same here. As a Cowboy fan it killed me losing to Joe and the 49ers. Him and possibly Unitas are the only guys I ever begrudgingly said could be better than Roger Staubach. That’s how much respect I had for Joe and his toughness.
I hated Staubach for the way they came back and eliminated us from SB5! But that comeback of his to beat us convinced me that Staubach was the real deal it was that America’s team crap that made me dislike Roger yes I know that was a marketing strategy
Bill Walsh, Freddie Solomon, Dwight Clark, Marty Schottenheimer, and John Madden R.I.P
Those commercials in 95 just hit me hard with nostalgia lol
Montana is the greatest legend ever.
Played in a very tough era.
Quarterbacks were not as protected as now.
@@tedfio1tedfio1 LOL, those were sissy hits. He saw almost everyone one of them coming, not too mention the video was short. A whole minute for 20+ years of football, LOL. Try again.
@@tedfio1tedfio1 Brady is slower, less mobile and wouldn’t have lasted a season. He cries every time he’s touched. Nearly spit out my beer I last year when he got flagged against the Rams in the Bucs playoff loss crying over a Von Miller hit that caused him to bit his lip. Unbelievable when Jim Nance said it was his first personal foul penalty considering all the crying he does when touched. LMFAO.
He got beat on and kept getting up. Guy was a freaking Winner
Greatest qb to ever put off a comeback
That Niners team that smashed the Broncos 55-10 was the best team in NFL history. Loaded!
if Ronnie Lott or Romonowski played today they would be banned from the NFL for life. Seriosly, no joke!
My father met Joe Montana while skiing in California and it was after he retired. This was in the late 90s. I wasn’t born yet but he met him and his wife while skiing and my older brother and sister met him as well. I thought that was pretty cool. For as much as we look at these people as super heroes, at the end of the day they really are just regular people like you and me.
such a cool guy in person too!
Long overdue....I still want "A Football Life" for Joe, but this was wonderful too. Very inspired by everything about him. I always wondered why he didn't become an analyst, but I guess family life when you've already become an elite legend, ain't too bad. It all falls back on the quiet confidence he embodied. What a hero!
Me too, but the 6 part Peacock series on Joe is fantastic.
I enjoyed this retrospect about Joe Montana. I think Joe, Montana was the Joe DiMaggio of football. He epitomized class, determination, resilience, winning attitude, and most amazingly humility. No doubt they were other great quarterbacks that deserve to be remembered. But for me, my favorite likely always be Joe, Montana.
No one brought out the best in his team like Joe.
The man.The best in the west,east, north,south, THANK YOU JOE, U THE MAN !! P.J.
Thank you for putting this on. I always loved to watch Joe Montana play. This brought back a lot of memories. Thanks again.
Montana and Rice should have been named Co-MVPs of the Super Bowl.
Why that didn't occur still baffles me to this day.
That victory would have never been obtained without Montana and Rice.
He was not the MVP but he said " He is going to the Disney Land", not Jerry Rice. He was the MVP according to Disney. That comeback would not happened without Joe, every one knows that except NFL.
Best super joe video ive seen yet. Thanks very much.!!!!!!! Awesome memories.😊
Goofball internal ads screwed up the importance of the great video. The greatest quarterback of all time.
Ok, yes, I am biased. As a Fighting Irish fan, I do love Montana.
Plus, Joe lived right down the street and next door to one of my best friends. So, we would see a lot of Joe atound the neighborhood.
With that said, there's just something about the all- time great ones.
Something undefineable, but, you know it when you see it.
I grew up a Notre Dame fan and I, as well as many others, struggled to comprehend why Devine was so apprehensive about giving Montana the reigns.
Some of us knew what we were looking at, greatness, while Devine seemed to somehow not recognize what he had.
I was only 12 years old when Montana led the Irish to a Natty during the '77 season. We Montana fans always knew that Joe had it in him to lead the Irish to the Promised Land.
There was something about the way he moved. I can't quite put it into words. He would take the snap and then you could just sense this calm confidence in the way he would eye the field.
Not slowly, but methodically he would move out of the pocket. You could see the gears spinning in his head as he would check the receivers with an always cool downfield gaze.
Then he'd set his feet and with a silky smoothness, throw the ball five moves ahead of the downfield players. You might wonder for a moment, why is he throw...oh, I see now.
I think Joe had the quickest quarterback mind ever.
He didn't have all the physical tools but his razor sharp mind made up for it.
Bill Walsh is one of the great minds in football history and lore. Brilliant man. But, he was OUT OF HIS MIND to play around with two quarterbacks.
Yes, Steve Young was a very, very good quarterback. Definitely the 49er QB of the future.
But, he's NOT Joe Montana. Walsh should NEVER had played those ridiculous QB games, shutting them on and out. That breaks the chemistry of a team quicker than an egomaniac wide receiver.
So, who's the GOAT? I can't argue with anyone who says Tom Brady is the greatest of all-time. His numbers are astronomical.
I just want to say, though, that Brady absolutely played in a completely different era. The game Brady played is very different to the game Joe played.
That makes it difficult to accurately analyze quarterbacks from different era's.
I think it would be VERY intetesting to see how Brady would have fared in Montana's era. I honestly believe that his numbers would be quite different.
Some of Tom's Super Bowl wins were in spite of him. Every Super Bowl ring Joe has was a game that Joe was the MVP.
Again, it's hard to argue against Brady being the GOAT.
If Brady is No. 1, then I think Joe is No. 1a.
Joseph Joe Montana.still sounds magnificantly,
I saw it all from day one. He, and they are unforgettable.
I played with my dad in the pool like that. God rest his gentle soul.
Thank you for uploading this video
You know watching this now (November 2023), and listening to all of the skepticism of him coming out of college, it reminds me a LOT of a young 49ers quarterback named Brock Purdy. The similarities between these two are remarkable!!
Brady would not been as rugged in those days when QB’s could get hit hard time after time. No spiking the ball back then either.
Thank you for posting it on CZcams. Been looking for the program for a long time
Thank you
Joe Montana greatest toughest quarterback of all time. roll over Montana Tell Brady the news.
Toughest QB has toJim Kelly
So interesting...all of the throwback commercials
Great Channel
To all the folks who so smugly point out that Tom Brady has more rings. You are absolutely right. How many of Brady’s rings were acquired without cheating? Unknown? I can tell you that Montana’s rings were acquired with skill, courage and ability
Joe Montana is the greatest quarterback there is
And number two is Tom Brady
Montana dominated in the Super Bowl when it mattered
11 touchdowns and ZERO picks
4 Super Bowl wins and ZERO Losses
In the 90s, there were two athletes of Legend: 1)-Michael Jordan; 2)-Joe Montana
#FACTS
Montana was more 80s, by the 90s he was already in the twilight of his career
I love the cocky trash talk from Joe's mother....LOL...Quiet Joe was thinking, "please keep it down mom." LOL
Joe cool great qb
Sorry meant to say the old commercials are a hidden gem
THEIR WILL NEVER BE A JOE MONTANA AGAIN PERIOD!!!!!!!(16) ☝️ 🏆🏆🏆🏆 🥇🏅🏉 THATS WHEN FOOTBALL WAS FOOTBALL 🏉
🐐
They played in two different eras. Montana played under much tougher conditions and still excelled. Brady has been protected like a baby. People keep saying Brady won 7. Means nothing in comparison.
happy 66th birthday joseph clifford montana jr !!!
Goat
can anyone ID the music in the intro through about 4:00 minute mark?
no way one of the ads said get 4 tires for 100$ at pep boys 😭😭
NYG n SF got great ass rivalry
If you put him next to Unitas it would be damn close BOTH had that “it factor” that can’t be quantified on a statistical sheet
Lmao you even recorded the commercials too 😂
They all commercials in this are a hidden gem
Dang, they still sell pagers in 1995?
Bubba didn't make it thru "southern comfort"
Why dey got dese 80s commercials on
2:40 mark, what is the name of the song/soundtrack?
czcams.com/video/Y-txTC3iIgM/video.html
49ers should have traded Steve Young not Joe Montana
Who is the music theme in minute
20:43
czcams.com/video/X-Y0m8CTdVE/video.html
3X SUPER BOWL MVP
4X SUPER BOWL CHAMPION
1 OF 5 49ERS TO HAVE 4 SUPER BOWL RINGS
He cant be that good. Woah.
Didn’t he retire as a chief
Yes. Took them to the playoffs in both seasons but didn't make it to the Super Bowl. In the '93 season the Chiefs and the 49ers were one win from meeting in the Super Bowl. Lots of fans wanted to see that game. I know I did. But they both lost their conference championship.
Tom who?
Exactly.
Let's compare two "ordinary" Joes. Namath or Montana. Who was better?
Montana, obviously.
Namath had great character though didn’t he?
52:55 to 53:16
Question can anyone playing QB playing today come back from surgery for a ruptured disc and then Jim Burt’s attempted murder of Montana and play at the level he did?
In 15 there will be no discussion Mohomes is gonna take that best QB crown.
