Some people in this thread are imagining their own reality. First of all, it was never really a competition... Walsh was drafted as an asset to bring in more assets. And while Aikman was the one who survived (some say this was Jerry’s call, not Jimmy’s) it sure as heck wasn’t because Aikman “won” some competition. In the games that Walsh subbed in for an injured Aikman in ‘89, Walsh was awful... there was only one QB who was even worse: Aikman, who had an adjusted net yards per attempt of 3.09 (!) (Montana led the league at 8.3) and was clearly the worst QB in the league that year.Sounds juicy. I came aboard class of 98 aka the Chan Gailey season. Skip Bayless mentioned this this morning. That sounds like a great camp competition or was it.
And be honest, who were you pulling for? Was it close competition? Anything you have to say about it, speak on it. How did Jerry feel about it?
