'I think you start the guy who has won all the games for you.' Joe Cool has made his pick for who he wants leading the 49ers under center next year.
The San Francisco 49ers icon — who knows what it's like to be involved in an unsettled quarterback situation in The City — gave a surprising pick for who he would choose to be the team’s starting signal-caller next season.
Rodgers says he's 'not going to San Fran,' offending 49ers fans twice It’s unclear what part of his response bothered 49ers fans more " still won a lot of games before he got hurt," Montana added."He put them in that position to go on that run to begin with. So you handed a guy a team — sort of like somebody else I know got handed a team — so you gotta go with the guy that's been winning games and gets the offense and go from there."
Of course, Montana, as he alluded to in the quote above, was part of an infamously awkward quarterback room at the end of his 49ers’ career — which in some ways mirrors the team's current predicament. Montana missed nearly all of the 1991 and 1992 seasons due to injury, which paved the way for Steve Young’s tenure as starting quarterback to begin. Montana was traded to the Kansas City Chiefs soon after, unceremoniously ending his legendary Niners career.
