The meeting
I'll never forget the day I called my wife into the living room to show her our next great QB....Tom Landry was having a visit with him at the Cotton Bowl.
The 1st game
@ the Saints.....Troy threw a 15 yard out..just over and between 2 defenders finger tips..right into the receivers hands whose feet were just inbounds....a pass only a great QB would make.
Of course it was the Saints Super Bowl, even though Dallas came in from that 3-13 season..but it didn't stop them from bringing the roof down. The Cowboys installed a silent snap count...that Aikman performed to perfection. Not one illegal procedure the whole game.
These 2 instances installed the belief that Troy, was indeed, the right selection for these Cowboys.
