Don’t get me started on that one. The “2nd place MVP argument “ is one of two arguments that have made me a staunch Dak critic. The other argument is Dak is better than Aikman. The 2nd place MVP thing is weak because he got 1 whole vote, so yes technically he was the runner up but realistically the race wasn’t close. Comparing Dak to Aikman and saying Dak is on par or better than Aikman is blasphemous.
Those 2 arguments really put the nail in the coffin for me as to how I feel about Dak in the field. I feel the media, Mike Fisher, some fans want to sell Dak as a generational player and the more blame shifting away from Dak and the unrealistic propping him up caused other fans (like me) to go the opposite direction. It’s almost like a repellent for his play on the field.
