Guess at 68 almost 69 that I have seen as much as anyone on the board. Went to my first game and Eddie LeBaron and second game with Don Meredith, so yes been around for awhile. Is Dak as good as Staubach or Aikman or Romo or White? Is he like some of those others mentioned? Really depends on what you are looking at to decide. I see a guy that does command respect in the huddle much like Staubach and Meredith. I see his throws as good as any of them and better than many. Danny White was probably our best deep passer I saw with the Cowboys and I know that will bring a lot of criticism but it is what I saw. He (White) just never commanded the huddle.
Many will only rate a QB by how many Super Bowls or playoff wins he has been anyone who loves football knows that isn't what makes a great QB, great team sure, but not a great QB. Dak has the skills and the athleticism to be one of the greats and one trait is that he is always working to get better. You just do not see that a lot in some of the young QBs coming up nor some of those that have been around for a while. Everything is always subject to debate.
What I see with Dak, is the ability to be productive every year especially with McCarthy as coach so we don't suffer through the 1998 through 2010+ years again. The board is going to always be split on Dak as it always is with any Dallas QB and that's okay, everyone of us has a right to an opinion but all I care about is Dallas winning games and actually having a chance at the playoffs even going into the last regular season game. Sure I want more Super Bowls, tell what team's fan don't. Just like to keep it real. For my money Dak is the Cowboys QB for the next 10 years, I hope. Others will disagree and that's alright.
Well said.
