Pennsylvania has the second-most amount of NFL Hall of Fame talent only behind Texas. Names like Johnny Unitas, Joe Namath, Mike Ditka, Dan Marino, and more all were born with the borders of the state of Pennsylvania, but there's only one Joe Montana. While Tom Brady might have two more diamond rings than Joe Montana, Montana was still Brady's childhood hero. Hailing from Ne Eagle, Pennsylvania, Joe Montana played his collegiate ball at the University of Notre Dame for four seasons, one of which (1976) he was sidelined an entire season.
Montana went on to be drafted 82nd overall in the third round of the 1979 NFL Draft by the San Francisco 49ers where he become a 4-0 and undefeated Super Bowl champion and 8x Pro Bowl selectee. Montana is also the first player to become a 3x Super Bowl MVP (Super Bowls XVI, XIX, and XXIV) and currently holds the Super Bowl record for most passes without an interception (122 in four games). Joe Cool would go on to close out his Hall of Fame NFL career with the Kansas City Chiefs in 1994. Joe 'The Comeback Kid' Montana is still arguable the greatest quarterback of all-time.
