I wish they showed his 1994 Preseason TD vs the Raiders...he ran HEADFIRST into the endzone and took 3 seperate headshots from the Raiders and his chin was all bloodied....WHY? Because a child who had cancer asked him to score a TD for him and Troy ONLY got one series that night he took the ball straight to the child at the hospital, he died two days later
Damn that's ironic because that kid passed away but at least got to have a football that Troy Aikman scored a touchdown with.Not many people get to have a ball like that
WOW
@@arnoldgarzajr1164 How is that ironic...
No, he got to see his hero take 3 shots to the head and score for him, as he promised him he would do.
The child was buried with the football as well.
I’m glad I was able yo witness Troy Aikman’s outstanding performance as a QB. Just incredible and not talked about enough.
Thanks for being Fan❤
Whoever coached him on his footwork is a genius. He has the best feet of any Pro quarterback I've ever seen
Amen!
You haven’t watched Joe Montana then
Brady was better.
Marino.
@@kcnoise, we found our snowflake.
Can you imagine how much longer Troy would’ve been able to play underneath the new NFL flag football rules for the QB.
Yes. And Staubach! They both retired due to multiple concussions.
The accuracy is unbelievable.
Troy Aikman didn't need to throw the ball 35 times a game to win. He knew where to throw the ball and when he set his feet he could zip the ball down to anyone. His highest touchdown regular season total 23 in 1992. He had wonderful talent around him and a great offensive line. Troy was the brains, Michael was the emotion, and Emmitt was the soul of the offense. They just made beautiful music together in the early 90's.
People forget he threw for 500yds in a comeback win against the redskins in 99
So he is a game manager?
@jmgonzales7701 he was much more than that, and you know that. He just happened to play with the greatest RB in the history of the NFL. His stats suffered because of that but they won 3 superbowls. If he wanted to he could have thrown the ball all over the field because when they needed him he always stepped up.
What about Novacek?
@AmirKhan-rh6jj I don't think so. There wasn't anything Aikman couldn't do and he had one of the best arms to ever play football and was one of the most accurate QB's to ever play. If he played in today's pass happy NFL he would have averaged 4500yds and 35tds per year.
Dan Marino, Warren Moon, and Troy Aikman have the prettiest throwing mechanics that I have ever seen. It's NFL Films poetry in motion.
Jeff George too smh never taught i would say that
100% agreed
Mechanics yes! But the strongest arm.... a tie between Favre and George.
*HOW* is he "the most accurate qb ever"? PLEASE EXPLAIN. Look at his passing percentage season by season. Nearly half his career he completed LESS than 60% of his passes. How the f is he so accurate? Stop over rating him. He's so damn overrated it's not even funny.
Also look at his td to int ratio. 165td and 141int for his career. He's nothing but a glorified game manager
Absolutely. All beautiful throwers. I think Favre had a pretty motion too. Id add him to your list.
His ability to read the defense, going through his progressions, footwork, bazooka arm and accuracy was amazing. A leader, class act, and consummate professional. Poetry in motion
This showed the long balls, but he did a tremendous amount of opponent murdering with the short game - sideline bullets, slants, quick bullets off the snap. It was a thing of beauty, and very very tough to stop. Troy to Novacek, man oh man.
Yeah buddy!
Novacek is underrated as hell.
You’re 100% correct. Some of the out routes he threw before his receivers even got out of their break were a thing of beauty.
@@Chairman7w yup. Novacek was an absolute stud. It’s a shame injuries shortened his career. Super reliable. Could find the open space in the defense and move the chains relentlessly.
Fun fact….in the late 90’s early 2000’s I worked at a Home Depot in Euless, TX. He had a ranch east of town in Ranger. Novacek would stop in from time to time to buy whatever supplies for his ranch. I helped him load up his truck one time and he is the most down to Earth dude I’ve ever met. Super friendly and was actually cool with me beating his ass with stupid questions and stories. Good dude.
Troy Aikman no era difícil de detener, de hecho no se quitaba ni un defensivo de encima, aún no comprendo como siendo tan limitado tiene 3 anillos, y Aaron Rodgers solo uno y Tony Romo ninguno, ambos QB con todas las cualidades de un QB élite.
I don't think people have fully appreciated how good Aikman was. Today, he's often labeled as someone who didn't put up the best numbers and/or rode on the backs of the arsenal of talent that surrounded him, and that's an absolutely unfair way to look at his career. Talk to any member of that 90s Cowboys team and ask them which player captained that ship, and they'll say Troy without any hesitation. To have that level of respect in a pack of ego-driven talents who all thought they were the alpha is next to impossible, and yet Troy did it. Yes, the 90s Cowboys were talented, but talent alone doesn't win championships. They needed a steady commander, and Troy was the glue that held them together.
Troy Aikman was all that you said; he was also among the most talented of players.
La apreciación tuya puede no ser la correcta...cuando Troy Aikman ya no tuvo ese gran equipo que lo cobijaba y que le regaló sus 3 anillos, allí fue cuando debió demostrar que los valía, no importaba que el equipo perdiera, lo único que demostró es que era un fraude, en sus últimas 5 temporadas daba lástima.
I was not a Cowboys fan, but I had great respect for Troy Aikman. He is my kind of QB: tough, intelligent, not a big talker, clutch under pressure, and above all: a WINNER.
As a NY giants fan I agree with this comment 10000%

Hear hear
As great as Troy was, watching this video made me appreciate Michael Irvin even more.
Dude was an animal.
Otherworldly
Exactly. So was Alvin Harper.
This is what I took from it as well, they were both tough players, it was no wonder why they won, and Emmitt Smith to top it off
Jay Novacek. They stopped winning superbowls after he retired
@@wokejoke2675 They stopped after Irvin retired too lol.
What made Troy elite was not his arm, it was his leadership. He was tough, accurate..sure, but he held everyone accountable especially himself.
Criminally under appreciated. 7-0 to start his postseason career. He sent Brett Favre & Steve Young home more than once.
He was FLITHY - and those are both Hall of Famers
It took a cap cheating 49ers team to take advantage of Emmitt's popped hamstrings and a perfect first five minutes of the NFC title game to finally scale Mt. Dallas. Dallas doesn't win those games against San Francisco and Green Bay in 95 without Aikman playing well. Its a silly notion that people have that because the era was much more run dominant, that he was a "game manager". Lmao, the league probably could've used about 7-8 more game managers then.
@@manuginobilisbaldspot424 dallas didnt beat San Francisco in 95. They beat the eagles and the packers
7-0? Well that can't be true. The only Lions playoff win since the merger was against Troy Aikman and the Cowboys... in Aikman's 3rd year....
@@supakewlryan yeah he didnt count the lions game. From 1992 to 1995, he was 10-1 in the playoffs. Outside of that he was 1-4. The playoff win in 1991 was with a different qb.
The 18 dislikes are all former Eagle players
This dude was DANGEROUS. ALL-TIME great for sure.
Yeah, I've never seen someone so good at handing the ball off 35 times a game.
@@Genesisdoes87 Well , at least he made the most of it when he did throw. Dallas was young and loaded back then. I'm sure you knew that already though.

Great team… not a great QB.
@@rickyrichreacts9667 🤡
Troy Aikman never really got to showcase his throwing ability because the Cowboys were a run-first team. Imagine if he played for the 49ers in that west-coast offense. He'd prolly be mentioned as a top 5 qb ever.
WORD
I think he'd be the first to tell you that those three rings > any passing records. Ask Marino, Tarkenton, Moon, Kelly, or Fouts which career they'd rather have...

Something I'll never forget is watching him go through full practices without the ball ever hitting the ground. A true living legend
Efficiency and accuracy matter more than aggregate numbers. What mattered for Jimmy Johnson and the ghosts of Jimmy Johnson, err Barry Switzer, was that the Cowboys finished in the top 7 every year from 1991 to 1995 in scoring: 7th, 2nd, 2nd, 2nd, and 3rd. Three titles, four conference title berths. I've never understood punishing a player for not being required to do a ton. The Cowboys scored a lot and when Aikman had the responsibility, he stepped up. Super Bowl MVP, big game player...if all that = game manager, then as a Raiders fan, I PRAY that Derek Carr elevates his game management. I watched those teams, Aikman at his peak was the goods. Tough, deadly accurate, a leader, and played big in big games.

Right. If he had to throw for 4000 yds and 40 TDs a year, he doesn't win those titles. He fit his game perfectly to suit the team's needs.
@@lucashenderson2775 no qb of that era did that and won Super Bowls.
@@joeschmoe2030 Exactly. Not Marino, etc.
@@andrewfung8591 He's safely above the Dilfer Threshold. Trent Dilfer in 2000 is the absolute minimum type of QB you need to win a Super Bowl. Doesn't put up monster numbers but plays just well enough to keep the offense moving downfield and doesn't make costly mistakes, hence the Dilfer Threshold.
Troy was a winner period.
A true leader and a very good accurate passer. Dallas will have to look real hard to find another guy like him
a game manager
My favorite quarterback of all time!!! Love this guy!
imagine completing 69% of passes WAY before QB protection rules
Steve Young was getting 100+ passer rating seasons when everyone else was getting barely 80.
@@Terror832Steve young won tons of championships... oh wait...
He'd crack 80% today.
Nice
Its not just that he completed that percentage. Ernie Zampese's offense isn't exactly known as a high percentage, safe passing offense. Guys like Jim Everett had big years in it, but not at a nearly 70% completion clip. Aikman was deadly accurate and smart enough to check it down to Emmitt and Moose Johnston keeping that offense on schedule. But it was designed for chunk plays. Completing 69% out of the West Coast offense was fairly remarkable. Snake Stabler's 66.7% in the Raiders offense in the pre pass friendly 70s was the only comparable post-merger season. Everyone else before prior to 1995 had done it in the WCO
I used to worship this guy as a kid. Still my favorite nfl player of all time.
It's beautiful to watch a quarterback with accuracy playing for the Cowboys.
I wish Dak could make half of these throws.😔
That bad huh cowboy fans...😂
@@strezz23 Dak was drafted in the 4th round for a reason and if you've noticed, no one mentions that he was a steal. Aikman was the first pick in the draft. You're looking at a quarter and wishing it was a dollar.
Yet, oddly enough, Dak's completion percentage is MORE than 5 pts higher than Aikman. For somebody that's iNnaCuRatE, that's not too bad.
Taking shots lol
Now you gotta do his left-handed rival
Oh yeah give me a Steve Young video during his time on the 49ers (not the buccaneers)
Come playoff time, Aikman's accuracy went up another level
Damn this man was accurate as hell. Perfect passes every time he threw the ball.
Miss ya Troy. Miss the whole team from that time.
Miss the whole sport from that time. I cut it off permanently last year.
Unfortunately , I have been saying that for the past decade. Especially about the 92 team which IMO was the best Cowboy team I ever saw with the possible exception of the 77 team.
@@billbates5475 who would you rather have Aikman or Staubach? And actually that question implies drafting a 21 yr old Aikman or Staubach. Unlike how Staubach was a rookie at 27 yrs old
Bazooka arm, fast release, and threw dimes. Class act as well. Troy and Joe broadcasting football is Hall of Fame as well
50% correct. Aikman is one of the worst commentators ever. He sounds like an idiot. Elite QB; horrible commentator...
Troy Aikman in today's NFL where QBs are protected from just about everything and running backs are usually a committee, would have monstrous numbers. His accuracy and decision making is tailor made for today's game. Despite being born in the wrong era, he is still an all time great.
How? He threw 141 ints in 165 games. Who made him throw those picks? That is trash by any standard. Troy's intangibles made him a great leader but let's not get it twisted and act like he was a Marino type qb that pulled everyone along with him. He was the beneficiary of playing for an insanely good coaching staff with insanely good running game and defense.
@@asundelgun3487 troy was the best game manager QB ever , but yeah he wasn't on the level of some of those other QB's
No tuvo números monstruosos porque su capacidad no daba para eso, mira sus juegos o sus videos de mejores jugadas, todas son iguales, solo completaba cuando no tenía presión y el receptor estaba desmarcado. No sé a que le llamas "su toma de decisiones" pues estaba reprobado en improvisación, volteaba a la derecha pase a la derecha, volteaba al centro pase al centro, volteaba a la izquierda pase a la izquierda, en el football de ahora no hubiera sido titular, a menos que jugara en un equipo cuya L.O. fuera top 3 o mejor. (no se quitaba ni una mosca de encima, era lento y torpe de piernas).
@@asundelgun3487 Poor little fella thinks he knows football because he read a stat...
How many of those were because the WR ran the wrong route?
How many of those were from the WR deflecting the ball and it being picked off after the tip?
How many of those were from him being pile driven into the concrete they called football fields in that era?
How many would any modern day Qb throw in 12 seasons with that era's rules?
You favorite vegan girlfriend Brady would have retired to eat avacado smoothies in Cali in year 2.
@@asundelgun3487 if you actually look before you speak, most of those INTs were compiled during the early rebuilding years and the last years after the team had went to crap.
Haven't watched the video yet but I grew up watching Troy and goddamn was he amazing. Beyond amazing.
Watching 90s Cowboys n 49ers were like watching the Superbowl.
It was BETTER than the Super Bowl.
What a phenomenal QB. He could hit a receiver in stride anywhere on the field; any spot on the field for that matter. Aikman threw WRs open in a way I hadn't seen before or since. If Prescott were half the QB that Aikman was, the Cowboys would have a chance at success.
Troy had 165 tds and 141 ints in his career lol he was carried by his coaching staff, running game and defense
@@asundelgun3487 The sure-fire sign of someone who has much hubris and little understanding of the game and a particular position is their judging a player on stats alone then announcing that judgment. Nicely done! In actuality, Aikman was an immensely talented and intelligent QB who was a major reason the 90s Cowboys were as good as they were. He's in the HoF and recognized as one of the best by his peers for legitimate reasons.
soy el último en defender a Prescott, pero lo que dices de Aikman lo inventaste, Aikman solo era efectivo bajo esta circunstancia: sin presión y receptor desmarcado.
I remember all those games in the '90s. It was just perfect. And people forget how tough Troy was. I love the shot of him blasting his OL because they weren't blocking well enough for him. He was a great leader, teammate and Quarterback.
Troy Aikman was one of the very best to ever do it
That team was absurd with the Aikman Irvin and Smith offense. When they got prime time it blew me away
Don't you dare forget about Larry Allen
Its a shame Novacek and Harper get left out oftentimes. Both played phenomenal
Don't forget moooooooose
Check out those absurd 1996 and 1997 Dallas Cowboys offenses.
watched EVERY game Aikman played (minus one Monday nighter cause I fell asleep lol), and for those too young to know better, you must understand that this era of the NFL was ALL about the running game minus a few teams because the rules did not favor the QB as they got hit on basically every pass play no matter what. Aikman took a ton of punishment over his career and most of it was after he threw the football. Not only was his accuracy one of the best ever, his toughness and leadership was unquestioned. Those Cowboys teams had a lot of great players all over the place but make no mistake about it, no one on those teams wins a Superbowl without Troy Aikman. And I can guarantee you that if Troy had played in a pass first system he would have capped a whole lot of records, but due the fact that Troy was about winning and being a good leader and teamate he wanted to set the example for everyone else to be selfless, I truly believe to this day that it is that leadership that ultimately put those teams to the Championship level they got to. Everyone followed Troy, and everyone knew he was their general no matter what anyone else says
Imagine if he played under today's rules
Perfectly said.
Alot of greats took a beating back in the day, doesn't excuse his sub-par numbers, even for his time
@@chazzx1018 dude, look at all of the QB numbers back then, the only ones who had “numbers” were in pass first systems and aside from Marino having one amazing season none of them blew the door open. The NFL is a much different game now and comparing that era to today is just plain dumb
@@chazzx1018 You dont know football, and are too dumb to comment on it if you think Aikman had subpar numbers lol.
Harper was so underrated. He could have been the #1 receiver on a lot of teams.
Well Tampa tried on that and it didn't work, I don't blame Harper on that one though, Tampas offense stunk in the 90s
Harper was your perfect #2 he never flourished anywhere else other than Dallas some guys just can’t take the responsibility the #1 has but he was still a great player
No
Playmaker tried to convince him to stay but he wanted to be the man.
Aikman would put the ball on the money anytime he wanted! It was a thing of beauty! That 1999 team I think would have been at least an 11 win team if Irvin wouldn't have had that career ending injury Irvin and Rocket was a nice one two punch!
Troy was elite!
I remember just looking at his form and saying that’s perfection in a quarterback.
In today's game he would be a monster
So why did he throw 141 picks in 165 games? What does today have to do with that? I agree with you if you give him a hof rb, hof wr, 3 hof oline men and multiple hof defensive players. Because that's what he had
Most of those picks came in the early rebuilding years and at the end when the team sucked and he was forced to make something out of nothing.
You can make the case that Aikman was the best QB of the 90's. He didn't put Favre type numbers, but he won 3 SB's, and was probably the most efficient QB in the NFL. Had Aikman played in a different offensive system he easily puts up 4K yards and over 30 TD's every season.
He would of been money in the Patriots offensive. He and Ben Coates would of been the best red zone duo.
@@Shatamx I'm sure Troy was pretty happy playing for the Cowboys in the 90's than Patriots. Jay Novcek and Michael Irvin weren't too shabby lol.
@@Joseph-lz5er Definitely. You look at Glenn, Curtis Martin, Coates in the 90’s. Under appreciated offense. Only issue was the O line was no where near as good as the Cowboys.
Idk Troy had a lot of help on those teams man he had every single thing a QB could ask for but his ball always looked good when it left his hand so he was talented for sure
@@MorriseyTheSnakeRoberts He had a lot of help, yeah, but the team went through Emmitt, not him. Dont be one of these dummies who only judges a QB because of their statistics. Had Troy been selfish, played in a more pass happy era, under todays rules, he would ROUTINELY put up 4k and 30 a year, trust me.
watching this in '23. feels so good to hear "Aikman to Irvin" again. thanks.
Watching those Super Bowl XXX highlights hurt mentally, being the Steelers fan I am.
However that doesn’t mean this isn’t a good career recap, great video dude!
Same, that one hurt.
Even though it was part of the NFC dominance of the 80s and 90s, in hindsight, it was a turning point. Between Super Bowls XIX-XXIX, only 2 games were one score in the 4th: XXIII when Montana drove down the field, and XXV the wide right game. Every other game in that timespan was decided before the 4th. Super Bowl XXX, painful as it was, was the first legit close game in the 4th in 5 years. The next year between the Packers and Pats was a 1 score game in the 3rd before Desmond Howard took it all the way. The year after that, the Broncos went down to the wire to beat the Packers in what might have been the greatest Super Bowl to that point. Ever since then, most of these Super Bowls have been tight, one score games in the 4th.
Tl;dr: Super Bowl XXX hurt, but it is an underrated Super Bowl because it was foreshadowing the end of NFC total dominance and was the first truly close game in several years.
Part of that win was on the Steelers. They had a chance and literally threw it away. Neil McDonald.
@@williammorton3359 O'Donnell, but yeah. Then the Jets decided to throw a ton of money at him. Because Jets.
@@williammorton3359 McDonald sure loved tossing the ball to Larry Brown lol. Even than, the game started out with the Cowboys taking control, than that surprise onside kick brought the Steelers back in the game only for the Larry Brown pick to turn the tide back to the Cowboys.
89' rookie class is filled with monsters 😈😈
Yeah the Packers really blew it with their #2 pick
Release looked so effortless
Them 89’ jerseys 🔥🔥
Being a lifelong cowboys fan I don't need to say these were the happiest days of my life
Troy was so accurate, so was Marino. Fun to watch! They played in one game called by John Madden the week before,John said we will see in this game some accuracy in every pass. Every pass was on target in the game by both hall of famers
Thank you Troy and to your teammates for the Vince Lombardi trophies.
and dont forget to thank Jerry
@@anthonycampos8057 No way,the players won them.
Troy Aikman was the most underrated, throwing mechanic ever in NFL history. He took pride in being a pocket passing quarterback as he won Super Bowls with fellow Cowboys teammates and Hall of Famers Emmitt Smith and Michael Irvin as “The Triplets”.
Can't wait to see you do one of these for Steve Young and Steve McNair.
A class Act.. Living Legend! 🏈
If you wanted to win multiple Super Bowls when quarterbacks were required to drop back unprotected from late hits and read defenses after receivers were able to break free from being bumped from heavy contact within 5 yards - you usually needed a quarterback like Aikman, Montana, Staubach, or Bradshaw. Individual inflated REGULAR SEASON statistics were usually given to QBs that were constantly playing from behind or ran passing offenses that failed to control the ball to verify victories in the 4th quarter. The regular season stat-kings who had 30+ TDs & 3500+ YDS usually came into the WILD CARD game committing multiple critical errors. The best quarterback in the 70-90s raised their level of play in the POST SEASON. Young belongs on the list, but had to face Aikman in NFC Championship. Elway had solid 97/98 season and lost to Montana and NFC EAST twice in the Super Bowl. Jim Kelly was great, but faced the NFC EAST 4 times in a row in the Super Bowl. It seams that the QB position was extremely critical from 70-90s and Brady dominates post 90s due to a QB meritocracy in the QB position where games are decided independent of the QB as the "pass friendly" rules highlight a QB more than the QB themselves.
A subliminal anti Marino post
Everyone you named had insane teams. Great defenses, great receivers, great running games, great coaches.
Staubach was definitely the most talented out of the group you named though.
I think it can be argued Brady won his first 3 rings exactly the way you described the other successful QBs, not with great regular season stats in a pass happy league, but by turning it on in the postseason. People saying Brady would not survive in the 90s, well 2001, 2003, and 2004 are not that far away from the 90s, and he seemed to do alright. Big fan of Aikman and the Cowboys by the way. But Brady has proved he wasn’t just a QB propped up by soft rules as a lot of folks accuse him of.
@@tommyl.dayandtherunaways820 Brady would definitely survive in the 90s but he definitely wouldn’t last as long as he did if the rules hadn’t changed.
@@mosescarter5980 No he wouldn't, that sissy cried for a flag eevrytime he didn't get a completion, or someone got within 5 feet of him.
That vegan hippie would have quit before his third season of mediocrity where Recievers can be blindsided, jammed at the line, and tackling was not a personal foul.
The first time that cream puff had a 300 Lb DT pancake him into the concrete padded by half an inch of "astroturf" 3 seconds after he threw the ball, he'd have shattered into pieces physically and emotionally.
He and Joe Buck are a solid NFL announce team. They don’t always go over the top with their commentary, but at least they know what they’re talking about when it comes to X’s and O’s
Sadly the meme made them hated by bandwagons
"He starts to come and then he pulls out"

@@crashstitches79 yeah but Brees ranks higher in history TBH
We were blessed to have Troy Aikman 🏈
Aikman was a underrated legend i feel like he doesn' really get recognized because he was overshadowed by Brett Favre Dan Mariano and Steve Young in the 90s era.
Not to mention elway
I'd argue he had the best career of those guys so I don't think he minds😂
so true
Elway has 2sb and was THE MAN ON HIS TEAM with legendary comebacks and THE DRIVE
Aikman and Young were the most recognized in the 90s. But as the years have gone by, Aikman gets less and less recognition.
Aikman is an interesting case of a guy who never put up gaudy numbers but everybody knew he was a great QB. I’m not sure a player like him could exist in this day and age.
Troy Aikman es un caso atípico. No tenía puntería, no sabía leer defensivas, no sabía cambiar jugadas, no sabía improvisar, no se quitaba una tacleada de encima...y sin embargo es el caso clásico que un QB promedio puede llegar a tener 3 anillos.
@@raulmar1968it’s a team game at the end of the day. Doesn’t matter how good or bad your quarterback is, all the matters if you score more points than the opponent.
@@raulmar1968I don't think you should ever speak about football ever again. You just described a guy who would never get drafted let alone No. 1 overall. You probably think Mike Vick is an underrated superstar.
Did any of you slack jawed nancies even watch the video before throwing up on your devices?
@@raulmar1968 Jajajajaja. QB Promedio??? Di que no sabes de Football sin decir que no sabes de Football.
For me he is in my top 5 QB list. 3 superbowls and just a true leader.
Aikman playing in this generation would be the greatest. And if we had kept Jimmy we definitely would have won 4 in a row
Completion percentage does not tell the whole story about accuracy as I'm glad there's a video with highlights to show how accurate Aikman was with his passes.
Dude was very good no doubt. Also had a ridiculously talented rb and superior pass protection majority of his career.
He also a dozen concussions that ended his career early.
Odd how he had a dozen concussions then eh?
How does one get that many concussions with "superior pass protection the majority fo his career". Casuals being casual...
Troy Aikman was like John Elway if John Elway had to play in a perfect system. This is what made the cowboys great is AIkman, Smith, Irvin all complimented each other perfectly. There was nothing wasted in that offense.
Irvin hubiera recibido cero pases si Aikman tuviera mala L.O., nunca ví un pase completo cuando fué presionado.
That's a god given gift to be able to throw & place the ball so accurately. Even my blind azz could catch his footballs.
Dude imagine the numbers he puts up without emmitt he didn’t even need to throw a lot cuz of his run game man but he was so poise and had a nice release
He would've been like Peyton Manning, especially if Troy wanted to be the unofficial OC, just like Peyton.
People forget this was back when throwing for 4000 yards was unheard of
It’s crazy how he never had a season above 3500 yards and just 1 season throwing more than 20+ TDs.
That’s due to Emmitt being in the backfield for most of his career 😉
That's because he wasn't actually a good QB
Playing with the all time leading rusher will do that.

Aikmam the best
Troy had it all, but he did possess one quality that set him apart from all the other QBs in that era. His foot speed when dropping back in the pocket was unlike any other QB I have ever seen, and I've seen a bunch. A young Elway was probably his closest competitor in that department.
Troy was able to get into his set position to release the ball faster than anyone. Watch the plays where a healthy Aikman drops back deep with a traditional cross-over, five-step drop, and ask yourself if you've ever seen any other QB get from the snap to the set position as quickly as he did. It's not even close.
Troy you gave me and all of us Dallas Cowboys the best 12 years of our lives to Thank you and you was and still are the best quarterback ever Thank you.
Agreed
The most underrated, underappreciated QB in football. His accuracy was uncanny.
Novacek was the most under rated guy on that team. Kept so many drives alive on third down and also great in the red zone. Should have been called the Quads.
I always referred to them as the Quintuplets: Aikman, Irvin, Smith, Novacek, and the Moose.
I wish we could have an Aikman right now, I mean with all respects to Dak of course he's a very good QB but Troy was a beast
Yea. Dak looks around to long
His future broadcast partner calls his highlights in 1994
Just a great accurate passer to throw the ball where it needs to be one of the all time greats to play this legendary sport
Troy Aikman was more than a game-manager.
Overrated.

@@Kingkam_77 It's Alright Sir, Haters Gonna Hate
In actual fact he is the epitome of a game manager.
Aikman my opinion the greatest qb he took to many hits and had to retire early, that team was a run first offence, so Troy didn't get all the passing yards but he was the most accurate, and Emmett Smith is the greatest Runningback to ever play, his work ethic and everything, i was watching his film, he is the most shifty back i ever seen, Zeke Elliot in his first 3 seasons were great and i feel the best of Zeke is history, Emmett kept his explosiveness longer theres no comparison and Irvin was the fire that kept that team burning, and Jimmy Johnson the GOAT.
Staubach, Aikman, Romo they all took alot of huge hits (aikman most early in the career, Staubach and Romo yearly) and cut their career short. Aikman played the most with 165 games, Romo started only 127 games, and Staubach 114.
As for Emmitt and Elliott. Cowboys kept using Emmitt as workhorse. After 2018 cowboys stopped using Elliott like a workhorse.
Aikman’s release is so quick!
Every throw is on the money. Man bring back so many memories
Whoever the cowboys home broadcaster is he is amazing still to this day in 2021 and I’m not a cowboys fan
Brad Sham is his name
Man, that 1992-1994 Cowboys teams were unbelievable. Probably my favorite game of all time, even over the 3 SBs was the NFC Championship Game win at SF. I’ll never forgot those teams and those games!
Me too man ,those NFC championship games WERE the superbowls in those days
LOVED TROY AIKMAN !!
Cowboys and 49ers my dad was all for steve young and the 49ers i was for troy and the cowboys... steve young usually got the best of aikman and the cowboys but still both #8 awesome rivals....ahh football isnt quite the same as the 90s it was packed with legends.
Aikman 2-1 NFC Championships vs Young.
8:31 Joe Buck calling a Troy Aikman game in 1994
He was a soul part of that Dallas dynasty in the 90s. Was a huge part of those 3 super bowls. Without him I don't think they would have been as good as they were or win all those super bowls. Maybe, but its not likely. Truly a huge part of Emmitt Smith and Michael Irvin's success!
He loved throwing that post route!
Aikman has to be top 5 all time. He rarely lost any big games and has 3 SB’s. His accuracy, toughness and coolness puts him up there with the GOAT Joe Montana.
No one looked more like a quarterback than Troy
NFL Throwback.
Could you please do a video of the Dennis Green Arizona Cardinals game against the Chicago Bears. “We are who we thought they were” lol 😂
One of the best ever
Man I wish I could’ve been alive to experience that power
Every time he went for the deep pass, it was a sure bet that it was going to be a touchdown.
Troy's stats would have been even better if some of his receivers had caught the passes that hit them in the hands or right between the numbers. His accuracy was suprising.
Love this boy
So inspirational.
