I will give you he was big, strong and fast enough. He was a winner, but he was always a shady character. Put him with an average quarterback and he is just average. That is my opinion, yours apparently differs. Strength of character used to be important, not so much anymore. That is my opinion too, BTW
I have nothing but respect for most of the other men on those Cowboy championship teams, top to bottom on both sides of the ball, and I hate the Cowboys, which is sort of ironic, because my wife is a big fan whose father happened to be the lead guy on the crew that did the field. She has one of the stars from the helmets in the end zones, 5-6 feet across. Her dad gave it to her. They raffled off the one on the 50 yard line for charity.
