Montana made Jerry Rice great. And he is one of the greats, no doubt.

Moss made Culpepper look like the greatest QB of all time.

I don't believe it can even be debated that Jerry Rice isn't Jerry Rice if he has Dante Culpepper behind center instead of Joe Montana.


If you can only define greatness by stats, then you not only have to be one of the best, but you then also have to fall into a perfect scenario to make you great. Like Jerry Rice.

If you can define greatness based on sheer impact - Moss is greater than Rice. Period.

Rice was an outstanding WR who benefited from having an outstanding cast around him, which often led to single/blown coverages thus amazing plays and stats.

Moss would force defenses to scheme around him. Moss, in his prime, changed the game.
