that is the thing. It is impossible to know that. Maybe Aikman's numbers would have been even better if he would have had to have been a gunslinger more often instead of what he was most often with the Cowboys, which was a brutally efficient machine

Re: Aikman vs. Elway

Elway was by far the better QB.

Re: Aikman vs. Elway

I think Aikman is underrated sometimes as well (what Cowboys' fan doesn't, heh), but Elway certainly was a more talented and gifted quarterback.

Re: Aikman vs. Elway

Elway might be the best quarterback of all-time. Aikman = not.

Re: Aikman vs. Elway

Aikman played his best games in big games. Elway played some horrible games in the Super Bowl.

I thought that Mark Jackson and Vance Johnson was pretty good wrs. They were called the 3 amigos.

They were alright. They played together for 7 seasons.

86- Johnson-36 rec
- Jackson -38 rec

87- Johnson- 42 rec
- Jackson- 26 rec

88- Johnson- 68 rec
- Jackson- 46 rec

89- Johnson- 76 rec
- Jackson- 46 rec

90- Johnson- 54 rec
- Jackson- 57 rec

91- Johnson- 21 rec
- Jackson- 33 rec

92- Johnson- 24 rec
- Jackson- 48 rec


89 might have been the only season where the two of them together had a pretty good year.

All the other seasons are avg to below average at best when they were together.

I said there's no way he's the greatest of all time. Are you really disputing that?
