A Penn State White Out Is In The Making @ESisback
Romo had to run for his life half the time. If only he had Aikman's OL. Being Aikman was a pocket passer, he wouldn't have survived in Romo's tenure.
Aikman would have taken Romo's team to the Super Bowl.
Aikman was a leader that demanded the best effort of everyone around him. They would have played harder and better for Aikman.
Aikman led by example. During a playoff bye he would have spent the time studying and focusing on potential playoff opponents. He wouldn't be on a beach in South America. You wouldn't see Aikman's most recent celebrity girlfriend in the stands pulling a publicity stunt and providing incentive to their opponents.
Aikman wouldn't have to run around because the ball would have already been out of his hands. Aikman was a master at reading defenses and he had one of the fastest releases. There was little hesitancy. He had ultimate confidence in placing the ball where he needed to be.
Aikman was so accurate that double coverage didn't bother him. He could thread a needle with his passes.
With Romo, the receiver had to be open with space.
Romo could never have survived without a Pro Bowl line and Pro Bowl receivers.
Between 2006 and 2009 no team had more Pro Bowl linemen than the Cowboys.
