QB + Head Coach Tandem Hypothetical - Which would you choose?

Stole this idea from a twitter poll I saw, but switched things up to make it a little harder. 😈

Out of these pairs of former Niners coaches and players, who would you pick? I'm picking C in today's NFL.

I'd take Montana with about anyone
I don't see a Steve Spurrier & Steve Spurrier option

what if it was Montana & Tomsula
or
Shanny and Steve Young

I would like to see the combo of Walsh & Jeff Garcia

I'd go with Kyle and Steve. I think Harbaugh's offense would lower Joe's potential to be great, and Walsh is no longer with us.
I'm going Kyle and Young.
not to hijack but you mention twitter poll in the topic, you see this one

It's all hypothetical, but if Walsh were still with us, where would Purdy/Walsh rank, in your view?

I agree on the Young/Shanahan combo. Purdy/Walsh would be good as well. Harbaugh/Montana would be oil and water - not good.

The Tomsulas of the world are why I say "about anyone" and not just anyone.

Great suggestion!! I added it. Coach Criteria for me was they need to be an offensive minded HC that has appeared in a Super Bowl, otherwise I might've considered Mooch.
Ken Dorsey and Jim Tomsula

Rice

no doubt imo, NFL around 2013 prior to TB12 going off, named Rice the greatest NFL player of all time
those records he set still stand
I think you could win a Super Bowl with either Young+Kyle or Harbaugh+Montana. I have a lot of respect for Walsh and IMO he's the GOAT in terms of offensive HCs, but even great HCs need great players to be able to win championships.

Prime Steve Young on this current team would be so damn cool
