This is the scenario of if you didnt know Aikman from say college or seen him play in the 90s you would think this is a good argument. Aikman had a mean arm he could throw with the best of them and he was as accurate as any QB ever. This is why he was a number 1 pick. He wasnt a reach.
Everyone back then felt he was number 1 and for a reason . If he had played for a passing offense his numbers would probaly be doubled. He sacrificed his game for the run game with Emmitt Smith. What he could do truly showed in the playoffs. If you loaded the box , he would make you pay quickly and consistently. That team was truly a machine and Troy was a huge part of that. I truly feel he we would have built the offense around Troy and still had that defense , we still would have won at least one superbowl.
