5 super bowl appearances, SB MVP, NFL MVP (1987), 9x Pro Bowler, multiple 3600+ yard passing seasons.

Pretty sure Alex isn't close to any of those.

This is just stupid.

And note how he was COMPLETE SHIT.

Are you even old enough to have watched him play??? You and your stupid ass stats. I guarantee you that with Troy Aikman in his prime in this team the past 3 years, this team is struggling to play .500 ball.

Not comparing here but let us not forget the cheating ass donkos circumventing the salary cap now.

I literally lived in Dallas as a teenager when Aikman was raping defenses that would have raped Alex.

Never compare the two ever again.

This went about how I expected it to

Troy Aikman threw the most catchable balls that the NFL has probably ever seen.

His receivers rarely had to make plays on a ball because the passes that he threw were almost always exactly where they needed to be.

Clay deserves credit on this one. How the **** can you compare a guy to Troy Aikman when the most TDs he's thrown in a season is 23 and that's the ONLY time he's thrown over twenty? When his highest yardage total is less than 3,500?!!

How the **** can you compare a guy to Troy Aikman when career TD to Int ratio is 165-141?!!

Oh, because all of those stats BELONG TO TROY AIKMAN.

Boy he sure raped defenses.

Not comparing in any way. Just saying horse face's legacy is completely different without TD.

To compare the two favorably towards Alex is to not understand the difference in NFL eras.

I do not think Alex Smith belongs anywhere near the conversation of comparing to multiple super bowl winners. But then again, Eli Manning has won multiple Super Bowls.

All I am saying is that - if we are going to talk about this - then let's be specific about what these players actually did. And since Aikmans stats are DOG SHIT - then something else must be accounted for why he is considered an all time great.

Of course, stats are all that matter to certain posters, so something must be afoot.

Teenager?

How were you a teenager from 1992-1995?

Dan Marino threw for 48 Td in 1984 then 40 again two years later.

To pretend teams didn't throw the ball in the ****ing NINETIES is to show just how limited your understanding is.

Oh. So you are old enough. Unfortunately, you have proved that your football takes have sucked for over 2 decades. Give me Smith over Aikman any day of the week. I may have exaggerated when I compared him to Cassel. Cassel is bad. Aikman was a JAG.
