Putting Zeke third over other great Cowboys backs such as Calvin Hill was a tough choice, but his career is off to a great start. His leadership and toughness alone earn him the top spot, but the all-time leading rusher as well? There’s no denying him the starting job. In my mind you can’t dispute Emmitt Smith as the RB1 here. Two Hall of Famers, a phenomenal athlete and one of the best in the game today is quite the impressive backfield. Running Back: Another embarrassment of riches. Aikman wasn’t as much of a statue in the pocket as some believe, but Romo’s ability to move around, create space, and buy time to get the throw off is a fantastic asset. In what’s potentially a controversy, I went with Romo over Aikman for the backup job. With his All-American attitude and “Captain Comeback” reputation, there’s no one better at the helm. There’s not much debate among Cowboys fans that Staubach is the best Cowboys QB ever. This depth chart could be random and whoever was starting would be able to win games. Quarterback: Of course, what would the Cowboys be without a star QB? This is the first of many positions where the Cowboys have an embarrassment of riches. Without him, the Cowboys never come close to ever being referred to as America’s Team. Landry was one of the pioneers of modern football, a genius of the game on par with Vince Lombardi.

With 8 Super Bowl appearances, the highest winning percentage ever, and 24 Hall of Famers, some tough choices needed to be made in determining the greatest Cowboys. The Dallas Cowboys, founded in 1960, are one of the most successful teams in the history of the National Football League.

While putting this list together, I tried to keep a balance between statistical success, legendary prowess, and fan favorites. Hello and welcome!
