First, can we get rid of this "lover" and "hater" nonsense? All things aren't to the extreme, and in fact rational discussion requires reasonable consideration of all sides, and labelling people that way puts up a wall against that. I know - there are people who only see extremes - on both sides of almost any issue, but the only way to combat that is for rational people to refuse to do the same.
As for the topic, it was never my intention to suggest Dak was on the same level as Aikman. He's not. My participation in this came up when I read a comment that Dak has to be a bus driver because he has too many sub 200 yard games, and my response was that yardage statistics can't fairly tell the whole story - like with Troy. A fan isn't fairly judging if they boil it down to one category like that and don't consider there are other factors that go into a QB's value. Some of those factors are intangible, and again, Troy is a prime example of that.
Novacek is a reasonable point to discuss, but even with that example it's hard to say how much was on Novacek being with Aikman, and how much was getting greater opportunity, and how much was Norv Turner, and how much was a different offensive scheme, and how much was having better weapons surrounding him that opened up more opportunities for him. His best yards per catch seasons were actually with the Cardinals, and I believe his TD's/reception ratio was better with the Cardinals, so maybe he just needed more starts and targets. There are a lot of factors that could go into that discussion.
