You're comparing a one man band who's had to will a terrible offense into productiveness. With an irreplaceable piece of an expertly crafted offense. It's two completely different situations, with not enough parallels to have a reasonable comparison. You can't possibly believe one is superior to the other when they'd both do worse than the other, in each other's situations.
No I am comparing the individuals and how they performed regardless of what they had around them. There are team accomplishments and individual accomplishments. I am viewing the QBs in that role. Super Bowls and varying championships are team accomplishments and are not part of what I am considering. I am looking at each individual and what they have going for them at that position. Romo or Aikman? Who has accomplished more at their respective position.
He didn't and when the team was down Troy struggled like any other QB would have.
When he was under pressure he would take a hit to complete a pass.
Romo doesn't use his mobility to rush.
Neither did Aikman...but whatever works.
I don't remember any of Aikman's prime. So I could be wrong, but what's usually set Romo apart is his pocket mobility. Where , he'd make rushers miss long enough to improvise a crazy play. It seemed like, from what I've heard, that's not a thing Aikman did. I think athleticism might not be the right word, since Romo still does that crazy stuff so late in his career (like the left handed pass against Miami), but I would say he's always been mobile.
Just was using it as a reference point...LT said Rivers was more athletic than Aikman...which is laughable.
