He was a damn fine quarterback in his day. Intelligence has never been a prerequisite in sports.
He was a Rothlesberger. He benefited from playing on a great team. He's no Marino, Elway or Favre. I'm not saying he's crap, but he wasn't exceptional.
I'd say he was exceptional. Closest comparisons imo are Tom Brady and Joe Montana. Still, exceptional being top 50 QBs, not top 10. I'd say he was more exceptional than Emmitt too, who was only "one of the best" because he happened to have a long career to pad stats with. Emmitt would be top 50 though.
Aikman is a moron though. And the Cowboys suck, go Skins!
