Nice list. The slot WR category needs to be blown away and Jay Ratface needs to be deleted ASAP.

In what world is Jason Garrett above Switzer?

I recognize that Switzer had incredible talent. But he still won a super bowl and went to an NFC title game in another season. More than garret ever accomplished.
I agree. I always say when it comes to Garrett, no coach in Cowboys history did so little with so much.

I’ll never understand how Meredith isn’t ranked higher. He was our 1st QB inducted into Ring of Honor leading us to our 1st 2 NFL Title games.

Danny White over Dak - how can you rank someone over a QB who got his team to several NFC championship games? He should be in front of Romo as well.

What year did he do that with Jerry and Stephen Jones running all aspects of the team?

Different time. Different situation. Even though you're right on Prescott.

Just on the Top 5 Cowboys QBs subject:

I have them as...

1) Roger Staubach (won 2 of 4 SB appearances)
2) Troy Aikman (won 3 of 3 SB appearances)
3) Danny White (led team to 3 NFC Championship games in a row)
4) Dak Prescott (best QB statistical start his first 4+ years in Cowboys history)
5) Tony Romo (All Time Cowboys franchise leader statistically overall in a career)
Another fan who fails to recognize our 1st QB inducted into Ring of Honor leading us to our 1st 2 NFL championship games.

Imagine what shape the franchise would be in if the Jones family had owned the team from the very beginning back in 1960. I have a hard time believing they would have gone to 8 super bowls with Jerry and his bunch of idiots had been running things starting with the inaugural season.

The Jone$ wouldn’t have survived back in the day. They would have either sold out or moved the team. Jethro would have been run out of town.
