Having one of the most stacked teams in NFL history, that's how. 5 solid years of playing, and when the team around him declined, he was mediocre to bad.

I guess we have to hope to rob another team of draft picks.

Offensive line and one hell of a rotation on the DLine...... period.

Easy Answer:

He has a brain and used it in addition to his talent and arm.

Throughout the last drive, what was he saying as an announcer?

DO NOT GIVE THE BALL BACK TO AARON RODGERS!!

This team deserved to lose because they are STUPID, STUPID, STUPID!!!

Anyone who thinks we should have just scored a TD with 90 seconds left and relied on our defense (or any defense) to stop Rodgers is simply in denial also.
Anyone who believes you can just score at will whenever you want taking as much time as you want is in denial.

Because he had Norv Turner when he was at the top of his game.. an OC perfectly suited for Aikman's precision and Michael Irvin's ability to catch his lasers..

Deterioration really started when they lost him..
How do you leave Emmitt out of your post? Troy was the general, Michael was the catalyst, and Emmitt was the glue that held it all together. Without Emmitt, that team would have never been.

But, while Troy was winning rings, Garrett and Wade Wilson were on the sidelines talking about how much more dynamic our offense could be if they opened up the passing game and got aggressive. Took off the training wheels. (And I'll bet you anything that when Martz blew up with his attacking version of that timing-based system, they thought that was confirmation that they'd been right all along and that they knew better than Turner or Ernie Zampese and all the conservative running playcalls.)

Those two guys have been on our coaching staff, a part of our cutesy, any-excuse-to-call-a-pass offense for a long time now. Meanwhile's Troy's rings are sitting in a nice display case, probably. His stats could've been a lot gaudier if the playcalling had been more pass-happy and cutesy, but I think Troy's happy to have traded stats for results.

This thread makes no sense when you read the thread title.

Personally friend, other than you running a warped casing-liner in many things concerning ' cowboys fandom' I've gotten close to the toleration level of acceptance on your aspects/input,,,obviously a character defect on my part ,,,but we'll keep it between ourselves:thumbup:

Aikman was one of the best QBs to play the game with one of the best supporting casts of all time and a damn good coach to boot. Then Jerry ran off Jimmy and signed Deion and we only won one Super Bowl after that and only like three subsequent playoff games or something perverse.
