Remember Aikman/Walsh - voted 6th worst team of all time:
6. 1989 Dallas Cowboys (41 letters)
Only one team stands out in my mind as being totally pathetic -- the 1989 Dallas Cowboys. They were terrible on both sides of the ball finishing dead last in points scored (204 points) and fourth from last in points given up (393). Steve Walsh (1371 yds pass, five TDs, nine interceptions) and Troy Aikman 1,749 yds pass, nine TDs, 18 ints) split time at QB with Walsh managing the only win of the season against Washington.
(yes there was a QB controversy)
The Cowboys' top running back was Paul Palmer (remember him?) with his 446 yards rushing and the very Frankenstein-like Aikman finishing second with 302 rushing yards! Kelvin Martin (Kmart!) lead the Cowboys in receptions (46) and yards (644), while future Pro Bowler, Michael Irvin finished with 26 grabs for 378 yards. (Mr. Irvin had not yet mastered the art of the push-off) The kicking game was horrible with Roger Ruzek and Luis Zendejas hitting a combined 10 of 20 field goals.
The '89 Cowboys were shut out three times that year and managed to score more than 20 points only four times!

I don't care what its for, if I can give an "ineptitude vote" to the Dallas Cowboys, I'm a happy Page 2 voter.
