The 49ers have been to a Super Bowl.
The Cowboys have not been to a Conference Championship game.
Your personal metrics for "performance" are seriously flawed.
No, your championing of Lynch is flawed.
He's now made the playoffs 1, Uno, solo season in his career as GM.
He's never hired a Head Coach.
He's busted out with pick 3 overall in a draft class.
He's missed on his franchise QB.
Lynch was hired by a then bad 49ers org and he was a decent flier.
He's been spotty at best but he did get to a Super Bowl.
If he's fired mid-season next year exactly zero people other than you would be shocked.
And Troy Aikman has done zero things in his life to lend to being a good GM.
He played 25+ years ago in a different era.
He's kept very few good friends in the league.
And no Troy isn't some independent thinker. He walks the line and always has.
It was a common complaint of him in Dallas as a player.
He's done the same at Fox.
He'd want control I'm sure but he'd do what the owner told him to IF he took the job.
But even with total control he'd bring the expected. He is not a fount of fresh thoughts or data.
He's consistent in his throwback ways.
The one thing he would have done that helps is extend Dak.
But anyone without Stephen Jones meddling would have done that as well.
