Troy Aikman 1992 and Dak Prescott 2021

[CowboyRoy]

Funny how that bus driver won 3 Super Bowls yet according to this thread Dak is better than Aikman....yet hasn't won crap.

I cant speak for the thread.

Aikman won 3 SB's because he was surrounded by one of the best teams in NFL history. I am sure he would agree with that.

Had Dak had THAT team he would have won a SB his rookie year. And probably a few more.

Is this where we pretend 1992 NFL is the same as 2021?

Embarrassing.

Literally laughed out loud when I started to realize people were serious and agreed with the OP

In 1992 defenses were still allowed to hit and punish QB's and WR's. Today's NFL is not much more than flag football.

Comparing Aikman's stats to Dak's is plain ignorant.

I'm a Dak fan, and to make this comparison is completely missing the mark.

This is not the NFL I watched when I was young. In those days 3000 passing yards and 20 TD's in a season were all-pro worthy numbers. The game was less suited for passing and running backs of that era reigned supreme. Emmitt Smith, Barry Sanders, Ricky Watters, Rodney Hampton, Barry Foster, Thurman Thomas, Chris Warren, I could go on and on.

This is fair. Great post. Todays NFL resembles arena football.
