Seen a few of these types of threads while we wait for the draft and new season.

So here is my simple question - Who is your favorite Dallas Cowboy of all-time?

No diplomatic lists, no I used to pick this person and now I go with this player.

Point blank, who is your single favorite player, the legend of legends that you saw play?

——————————————

For me, Troy Aikman.

Never met a Super Bowl he couldn’t win. Leader on and off the field. No nonsense.

Captain America, Captain Comeback, Roger the Dodger Staubach.

Aikman? No way. Guy couldnt win a game without Emmitt and pretty much handed the ball off every game. Great leader and accurate within 30 yards, but he was a bus driver.

Emmitt was always my favorite.

Well said!

So glad Troy is in the HOF.
But i did not think he's elite, and he came away with some clutch NFC title games, but that 90's team more so rode the back of Emmitt Smith than Troy.

- during Emmitt's contract hold out, and starting the season winless at 0-2 the call out was ..... " we need Emmitt "

- in a game where all the NFC division and playoff advantage stakes were on the line at season's end vs NY Giants, the team rode the
back of shoulder- separated Emmitt. .. instead of Troy.

- in the Super Bowl where Troy was obviously still dingy from a previous concussion and off his game, the team again rode the back of Emmitt
en route to a back to back Super bowl win.

- Aikman came in the most handy when defenses boxed up, sold out vs the run, and Troy could sizzle the ball to Irvin, underneath in slants or over the top of defenses.

If we are talking best player of the 90s dynasty
Yeah you can make a case for # 22.

 

[MS17]

Randy White, the irrepressible one, a lion. Many offensive linemen lost sleep night before Dallas games. The guy was made to play football and we loved watching him play.

 

[Starforever]

Tony Dorsett: I watched him at Pittsburgh, and rejoiced that he was a Cowboy.

 

[Big D]

If it was one player that could be added to the current team I would pick LeRoi Glover but just as overall favorite it'd have to be #22

 

[Mk2_Cowboys]

Easy answer Tony Dorsett .

 

[Truck]

I asked my grandpa, and my dad and my uncle.

Gramps says Don Merideth
Dad says Troy Aikman
Uncle says Randy White
Gor me Jason Whitten

 

[Haimerej]

Bill Bates

Pretty sure you can call it by now. Nobody's unseating Staubach as first and Emmitt as second at this stage.
