Like IF Anderson was a Cowboys QB...he's in the HOF probably.
Man, another interesting thing is comparing stats. Troy Aikman finished with 165 TD's and 141 Int's. 32,942 yards.
Dalton coming into this game had 197 TD's and 112 Int's for 30,352 yards. Andy would be a HOFer if he played and put up those numbers in the 1980's.
Emmitt vultured all of Troy's TD's. Troy was considered an elite QB partly due to his accuracy. Back then, 64% was top notch.
Now we have 4 QB's over 70% and 19 QB's at 64% or better. Rules changes.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
