Troy Aikman: Year-by Year
(From Dallas Cowboys Press Guide)
1990
In 1990, Aikman's value to Dallas was evident in the team's
seven wins. In only one of those victories were the Cowboys ahead
entering the fourth quarter. In the other six, Aikman completed
32 of 45 passes (71.1%) for 456 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions
in the final period to put Dallas on top.
In the season-opening victory over San Diego (9/9), Aikman capped
a 53-yard drive with his first NFL rushing touchdown, a one-yard
sneak, to win the game with 1:58 remaining.
In Tampa (10/21), he led Dallas on an 80-yard scoring drive -
throwing for 60 and scrambling for 20 - that culminated in the
game-winning 28-yard touchdown pass to Michael Irvin with 1:56
left.
Against the Rams (11/18), Aikman led the team 89 yards to set
up the winning field goal in the fourth quarter. Four days later
vs. the Redskins, he led the Cowboys to scores from 67 and 78
yards out in the final period of a 27-17 Dallas win.
Aikman completed 11 straight passes in the second half while engineering
fourth-quarter scoring drives of 80 and 50 yards to beat the Saints
(12/2).
Early in the Philadelphia game (12/23), Aikman separated his right
shoulder forcing him to miss the season finale. When Aikman had
surgery to repair the shoulder, he also had loose bodies removed
from his right elbow.
