Better teams in the SB guarantee wins.
Look at all playoff stats.
You want to compare Kelly against our D and Troy against their D, like somehow that is a fair comparison.
When Aikman defeated fellow HOF QBs Favre 3x, Young 2x, and Kelly 2x in the playoffs; Aikman was the best QB on the field in each game.
I.e., the team with the QB who performed the best; won the playoff game (regardless of regular season stats - Young, Favre, and Kelly had better regular season stats than Aikman).
Aikman’s passer rating was higher in all 7 playoff games and in the 100s except for the 1993 Super Bowl when he played with a concussion.
