I never understood the Aikman love. Aikman was a fine quarterback, but as a fan were you scared of Aikman? I sure wasn't. I was scared of Marino. I was scared of Montana. I was scared of Randall Cunningham. Aikman handed off really well behind a stellar offensive line and was a good quarterback in the passing game. Not a great quarterback.
Don't confuse that with saying I wouldn't have wanted him on our team. There's nothing wrong with Troy Aikman. But he was the driver of a pretty fast car in Dallas.
