Come on it was a different league back then.
How so exactly? What was it that was making Aikman's throw so many fewer touchdowns and so many more interceptions?
was a much better passer than Dak. Aikman had the timing offense. How many times did we see and hear Madden explain... The Ball was already out of Aikmans hands before Irvin made the cut...
Yes I do agree that having gotten over the nostalgia, Steve Young and Favre were better than Aikman.. There you go , I said it. Aikman did have the advantage of being on a better team, he didnt have the arm talent of Favre, or the mobility and playmaking of Young. You also have to remember he had the pedigree of the number 1 overall pick. All his measurables were of #1 pick quality.
Dak is not the Aikman equivalent of today's NFL.
He's his equivalent in production. Cry about "era's" to somebody else. Dan Marino was passing for 5,000 yards and 48 touchdowns 5 years before Aikman's ever entered the league. Spare me the "era" bull****.
