Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow isn’t unfamiliar with high-profile comparisons.

He is, after all, the guy who just joined the record books alongside Joe Marino, Peyton Manning and Kurt Warner.

And now he’s got a Joe Montana comparison on his resume.

Bengals offensive line coach Frank Pollack recently threw out the comparison, citing Burrow’s “aura” that reminds him of Montana. According to Geoff Hobson of Bengals.com, Pollack said the following while talking about what makes the two so similar: “You gravitate to guys like that.”

More from Pollack, via Hobson:

“When he makes a statement guys listen to everything he says and he’s deadly, man. So (the offensive line) has to do our part and give that guy all the time that he needs to make those great plays, which he’s been doing. He’s an outstanding athlete and really a fun guy. He’s really a low-key, humble guy. He’s all ball, too. It’s like there’s nothing else but ball. As a coach you kind of gravitate to those kind of guys. You kind of like those guys.”

And while some of these comparisons often come from media-types and are often silly, Pollack would know — he played with Montana back in the 90s. If he says Burrow has that it factor that teammates love, rest assured he’s seen it unfold in the past.

Montana, considered one of the greatest ever, won four Super Bowls with three Super Bowl MVPs and two NFL MVP awards.
