I don't disagree with the idea that he was a system QB - he was very similar to Brees in that regard. He wouldn't have been as successful in every system as he was in Walsh's system. By the same token, nobody else would've had the success Montana had in that system.
He was a maestro in that offense and his grasp of it, along with his precision, should not be understated.

Brees and Montana is a solid comparison for what they were in their systems.
