Aikman never had the chance to be a numbers type of qb. Aikman was a very good QB. Not at Bradshaws level but very good. If not for Barry Switzer he might have won 4 Superbowls in a row. Teams don't do that with an ordinary qb at the helm.
As for three yards and a cloud of dust was the Cowboy's style, I believe it should have lead to much better proficiency from Aikman. Especially considering the 90's started the pass happy rules of today. He had a great WR with some good TEs along with a good complimentary WR most of the time. Like I said, he has the rings which is huge in the NFL, but his regular season stats are okay.
