Yes, definitely, 100%. However, that shouldn’t necessarily take away anything from Montana. His abilities were perfect to fit into that system. Many other successful QBs couldn’t do as well in that system.
Steve Young was another one. He bounced around the CFL and the NFL before he proved the original West Coast Offense was his niche.
The other thing with both of them was Eddie DeBartolo was able to manipulate the system by deferring salaries to keep the 49ers top players from being free agents. Montana and Young ALWAYS had a top supporting cast.
Because of the manipulation, the NFL initiated new rules about player compensation so no team can now retain their top players like the 49ers used to do.

I truly have so answer to this. WWE is in the mix of maybe taking the title off Punk and word has developed that they MAY draft him to Smackdown to increase starpower. I feel WWE has isolated it’s hardcore audience and by doing so, the casual fans are mostly left. 40 percent of the audience are women and children. They seem to only pop for Cena and Orton. What needs to change. I really don’t want to see Cena with the title at Mania, but it may just happen. I feel that this “sports entertainment storytelling” needs to stop. Cole is so annoying I have to either mute the tv. With his yelling, bashing, Twitter fetish, and him trying to be a heel, really makes me want to not watch. Also last week had a big game between the Steelers and 49ers. What ways do you feel may increase ratings, as of now, Punk is not the answer, and as much as it pains me, in the WWE’s mindset it’s hard to market him. Thoughts?
