Different eras, different schemes on both offense & defense, and rule changes that favor offense.

Aikman was also a winner.

Any QB stat/record achieved this century is largely meaningless. Same for WRs.

Doesn’t include postseason stats.

Troy played in 16 games vs only 4 for Andy Dalton

Also, Troy’s stats/record would have been much better if Jerry wouldn’t have done what he did to Jimmy Johnson.

Every time you watch a QB like Dak or Lamar fall flat on their face on the big stage, then think of Troy Aikman, because he was the opposite.

The bigger the game, the better he played.

Are you trolling or just so young that you don’t realize what the game was like in Aikman’s era?

And how did their respective numbers compare to their contemporaries of their times? Raw stats don't tell the whole story when discussing careers that were 2 decades apart. They played different eras, essentially different games.

Would he be in the hall if he were on probably 29 other teams… nope but he wasn’t and he was the leader of back to back and three total Super Bowl wins.

He’s an average QB who was a great leader and played on some fantastic teams with a legend coach

TD/INT ratio is shocking for Aikman

Didn’t realize it was that bad

The Red Rifle is criminally underrated

Aikman is arguably the most overrated QB ever

When you are surrounded by superstars, it skews everything

It's almost like it was a different game when Aikman played.

Aikman wasn't shite. Best OL in history of game w top rb. All he did was throw bombs or hit Irving in traffic

Andy Dalton was born in 1987...Troy Aikman was born in in 1966.

They played in vastly different leagues...so what's your point?

Aiklman didnt have to throw the ball 40 times a game to lead his team. he could throw it 20, hand off 25 times and put up 35+ on offense
