Does Aikman win a SB with any team from Parcells forward?
Lets assume its not even a conversation with the teams from after the 90's up to Parcells. But do any of you feel that Aikman would have won a SB with the teams of Parcells, Wade, Garrett, MM? :popcorn:

Yeah Aikman was not only a different era but he wasn't playing in a WCO spread them out and complete the quick easy passes. I love me some Aikman.

It's weird to say, but he may be one of the more underrated players in team history.
Too many kids only saw him at the end when he was beat up behind a bad OL and terrible coaching and think he was always that way. A lot of people actually believe he was just a glorified bus driver.

Yeah its unfortunate Aikman didn't play in an era that protected QBs at all costs and have a chance to play into his late 30s.

Yep. Under today's rules, and with as big and strong as he was plus the way he took care of himself, he could have played to 40 if he wanted to.

Aikman is a tough case since he was so good in the playoffs for the most part.…and #6 all-time playoffs in Yards per Attempt (min 300 attempts), so not a dink and dunker, either

if you look at postseason stats, the picture is absolutely clear in your favor.

During his prime I agree. The problem of course is that Brady's prime lasted much longer as simply touching him was a personal foul. Aikman got the snot knocked out of him with nothing.

Indeed, Aikman retired partly because he didn’t want more concussions.
