Anybody else miss the days when the offense broke the huddle faster?

[Zordon]

When the offense would break the huddle with 20 seconds left on the play clock, Aikman's cadence would pierce thru your tv speakers as if you were one of his linemen, and then the play would begin.

No shenanigans.

No pre-snap penalties.

No "Kill, Kill, Kill".

No rushing thru audibles to snap the ball with .0001 seconds.

Everything was so much simpler with Aikman.

"BLUE 42, BLUE 42, HUT HUT!"

*sigh*

Simpler times I guess.....

You mean back in the 1990's? Seems like a lifetime ago.

 

[Super_Kazuya]

Not as much as I miss the days when Emmitt had 85 yards, a couple of nice blocks, and a touchdown... in the first quarter.

 

[links18]

Who doesn't miss those days, but Its not 1993 anymore. Aikman's in the booth, Irvin is on NFL Network and Emmitt is doing commericals. Of course, Garrett is still with us.

 

[DandyDon1722]

Yeah I understand where you're coming from but it's a different time and the league evolves. One thing that hasn't changed is execution. I miss that too.

 

[davey999]

I miss knowing we were going to run the ball and knowing the D could do Nothing about it!

 

[HeavyBarrel]

20 years ago, and feels like a lifetime....I miss those days but I miss being 18 also

 

[CATCH17]

When the offense would break the huddle with 20 seconds left on the play clock, Aikman's cadence would pierce thru your tv speakers as if you were standing right next to him, and then the play would begin.

No shenanigans.

No pre-snap penalties.

No "Kill, Kill, Kill".

No rushing thru audibles to snap the ball with .0001 seconds.

Everything was so much simpler with Aikman.

"BLUE 42, BLUE 42, HUT HUT!"

*sigh*

Simpler times I guess.....

Hey at least you get to see the same offensive schemes.

I'm glad we haven't evolved like the rest of the league.

 

[bayeslife]

So go get a time machine.

It's 2013.

 

[riverside4]

Sure do been telling my son about those days since he was a child. Told him it wont be long till this team is great again he told me today hes 19 now and still waiting. LOL

 

[theebs]

If aikman were in the league now he would have complete control of his offense like all these guys do and would be making all kinds of adjustments also.

 

[Idgit]

Yeah, I miss the Superbowl days. 'Anybody *not* miss them?' is probably a better question.

 

[SportsGuru80]

I miss a REAL damn running attack! This is ridiculous, no commitment at all! Offensive linemen want to attack the line of scrimmage instead of being rushed SMH

 

[dstovall5]

Must've been nice to get to watch a team that was so stacked due to no salary cap.

he would but he'd do it in a much more organized fashion.

 

[slomoxn]

I miss the days when a real football mind controlled player personnel and roster moves.

 

[slomoxn]

Must've been nice to get to watch a team that was so stacked due to no salary cap.

The Cowboys were the youngest and lowest paid team in the NFL during their first 90s superbowl win, when teams started raiding Johnson's roster Jerry had to pay to keep players THEY developed, they were not free agents so I don't think of it as paying for mercenaries when you are paying players you drafted or picked up off the streets or traded for and made a player out of them.

 

[kycowboyfan]

I miss the days when the offensive line took their stance and the stood back up before taking it again. LOL you old timers like me probably remember that.

 

[BotchedLobotomy]

I miss having an accurate QB.

For what it is worth, I also miss D. White punting after failing on 3rd down.
