This is comedy. Those games happened pre-salary cap when Dallas had twice the talent of most other teams in Football.

And Bernie Kosar had an 0-3 record under Jimmy and Rodney Peete played one game. Buerlein started four games on the 1991 team that was one of the most talented teams in franchise history.

Is that enough memory jogging?

LOL. So pre-salary cap is your defense? Does that invalidate Bill Walsh too? What about Vince Lombardi, Chuck Knoll, Bill Parcells, John Madden or Paul Brown? Buerlein started more than 4 games for Jimmy but still fail to see how this supports your position. And the argument about the 1991 team is not only spurious but it proves what exactly? Garrapolo only started 2 games for Belichick, does that invalidate Belichick's standing as an elite head coach? Is Brady not GOAT because the Pats have had the best team in the NFL for the last decade?

Kaiser's rolls need more yeast, not rising to the challenge.

It's true except for the best coached teams. People like to say Belichick was an outlier, but so was Bill Walsh, so was Jimmy Johnson.
They were all outliers. They are the definition of outliers. They all revolutionized the Game of Football.
They were outliers.

Definition and usage are not always compatible. Kaiser is using the term outlier to denote something that should be detached from the main rather an example to be followed. Kaiser is making excuses for mediocrity.

Exaggerated production/performance can be by definition an outlier but it can also be used as an excuse to explain away poor or average performance. See the tangential evidence being offered: pre-salary cap, HOF QBs, 1991 is one of the most talented teams, Y only played X many games, water is wet, violets are blue, etc.

No, Kaiser is saying water is wet, the sky is blue and no team in the NFL has two good QBs. Welcome to parity ball, apparently you have been asleep for the last 20 years and missed that part.

No, I was posting about Jason Garrett's record compared to his peers. Then your mancrush on Jimmy Johnson lead to you inject him into a thread that had nothing to do with him - or with the 0-3 record Bernie Kosar had under Jimmy.

But sure, if you want to go back almost three decades and give Jimmy an unlimited budget and a once-in-a-lifetime haul of Herschel Walker draft picks, he did have teams with more talent than any other in franchise history. So the three backups you mentioned were able to put together a 5 - 3 record back then.

So how fast can you carve his face into Mount Rushmore? Maybe Bernie Kosar can pitch in and help.

BTW, it isn't a tangent when the 1991 backup had two HOF skill position players with him named Emmitt Smith and Michael Irvin.

The 2015 backup was playing with Terrence Williams and Darren McFadden. Look at the defenses of those two teams as well.

If you think that difference is a tangent, you need to go back and learn what the word means.

Your ranting and raving is all over the place, lol.

Having HOF players should strengthen the case for Jimmy (or Walsh, Parcells, Lombardi, Knoll, Belichick, etc.) Instead of weakening it.

You are such a drama queen. LOL

Apparently you missed the Cowboys 2016 season. Eagles started same season with both Bradford and Wentz on their roster. Same with NE with Brady and Garoppaolo. Or the season GB had both Favre and Rodgers. Or when Chargers had Brees and Rivers.

One of us has been asleep and it's not me.

You really should stop already before embarrassing yourself any further.

Its gotten REAL in here. The ignore missile has been launched

Hey, sometimes lines get crossed. He used the "B Word". You can't just walk around saying Bernie Kosar without consequences.
