Let’s explore the Big D (as in Debate) over which Cowboys was truly their best ever. Dallas has been lucky to be led by some talented quarterbacks throughout their storied history. From the legendary Roger Staubach to the current Pro Bowler, Dak Prescott, debates over who holds the title of the best Cowboys quarterback often spark some incredibly passionate chats among fans. That being said, let’s take a deeper dive into each of the quarterback’s accomplishments, statistics, and impact on the team.
Troy Aikman
Let’s take a look at another Cowboys legend, Troy Aikman. He was one of the famed “Triplets” during the team’s 1990s dominance. Aikman guided the Cowboys to three Super Bowl victories (XXVII, XXVIII, XXX) and was named the MVP of Super Bowl XXVII. And if it weren’t for the parting of ways, if you will, of head coach Jimmy Johnson and owner Jerry Jones who knows, he may have hoisted a few more Lombardi trophies.
Aikman was known for precision passing and command of the offense. He racked up six Pro Bowl selections and as we said is in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. His ability to deliver under pressure and lead the Cowboys to multiple championships cements his legacy as one of the best quarterbacks in franchise history.
