Joe Montana would rank 33rd in completion percentage
Joe Montana had a completion percentage of 61.3%, which would be ranked 33rd in the NFL. That’s just 1 above Jets quarterback Sam Darnold.
This shows how today’s quarterbacks are much more accurate compared to other NFL legends. Currently, Drew Brees is leading the NFL with a completion percentage of 73.5%
Montana would rank 25th in passer rating
The Hall of Famer would also rank towards the bottom in passer rating. Montana has a passer rating of 92.3, which would put him just a few rankings away from the 49ers backup quarterback Nick Mullens.
Currently, The Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers is leading the NFL with a spectacular passer rating of 119.7.
Overall, today’s quarterbacks have proved to be much better than the older Legends. It indicates how today’s quarterbacks are much more accurate and generally better in such areas.
