Bill Walsh quote

I looked it up, it is true, Walsh said it:

"Joe Montana was the product of a system, Dan Marino WAS a system."

Is this Bill being egotistical or honest? My take is that he is being egotistical. Since he retired he has always defamed former players and tried to elevate himslef as the lone Grand Architect.

Walsh is the man, him and Montana get along great, it must have been taken out of context. I got a recent article he did and it explains just about everything in his time coaching, if you want it just let me know, don't wanna spam.

That statement, while probably taken out of context, is still true. Montana was the best QB in the system that Walsh created. Marino basically was the system in Miami. I do not think that either would have achieved what they did if their roles were reversed.

My instinct was that Walsh did his usual "it was all my great system" attitude....QB's are great but the best Offensive line is what wins games more than any other position.
