I think Carter has not the weaponry that Roger had.
In other words, Parcells is short-handed compared to Tom Landry.

Yes Staubach joined a much more relatively talented Cowboys team than Carter. Also Staubach didn't come in with the expectation of being a starter right off the bat. Roger went through 4 full years of college and then 4 years of military service before he began his career as well. Therefore he had the advantage of much more maturity that QCar.
But coming into a talented Cowboys team has it's own set of expectations. I'm sure if there had been internet boards like this one at that time they would have been filled with posts over the quarterback controversey at that time.
