Aikman was a leader that’s why. People played hard for him like they do Dak.
That’s why guys like Brady have more success than “chill” hats backwards guys like Romo and Rodgers
Funny but Aikman didn't become a leader til after Jimmy left, it was actually one of his criticisms when he was a younger QB.

I think he uses his weapons more. Tony was a thrower. Dak likes to throw too, but now he's understanding when and how to use the running game.

I was a Romo fan but he thought he could make every play, and that made him dangerous for the Cowboys as well as opponents. Dak makes errors like all QB's do, but I see more willingness in Dak to throw the ball away or take a sack instead of forcing the issue. Live for the next down or the next series. I see more patience in Prescott.

IMO, Aikman became the leader when he won Super Bowl MVP. Still love watching that video when he raised his hand to #1. Very unlike Aikman to be that cocky.

Just like everyone else is saying, as good as Dak looks, he has to win the Big One to officially be crowned higher than Romo. Thems the breaks as a QB.

I loved Romo, but Dak is the leader that Romo never did become.

Romo had “his guys”. Everyone respects and connects with Dak.

Dak is a leader of men, and he’s playing as efficiently as Romo ever did.
I love Romo, but I can get behind this statement

He became more of a vocal leader after Barry took over cause he had to be - Barry was no Jimmy.

Pssssst… Dak is better than Romo.

In fact, he's actually everything that Romo's diehards thought he was.

93 Super Bowl MVP says otherwise.

Cowboys quarterback Troy Aikman was named Super Bowl MVP, completing 22 of 30 passes for 273 yards and four touchdowns for a passer rating of 140.6, while also rushing for 28 yards.

Funny how we gloss over that.

Romo had Garret.

Garret is the reason we lost for 10 years. Maybe more.

Romo attended basketball games with Garret and went to Cabo. He’s also to blame. Maybe more.

At this point, don’t you have to at least admit Dak is good regardless of anything else?

Romo was a great QB that got snake bit at the most critical times in a game.
Let's hope Dak can match Romo without the bad luck.
