He hired Parcells with an ulterior motive that some do not seem to agree with me on. They think Parcells had little to do with him getting that stadium deal done and I couldn't disagree with that more. That was the only reason he hired Parcells and agreed to give up control of the team.
The only way I will ever back off on that is if he does that again with another HC but that is not going to happen.
You want to build a new stadium on that scope, you need credibility that you know what you're doing other than three straight 5-11 seasons. To get the stadium that Booger wanted, he needed some attention getting, something that sent the message that he was serious about winning. The only thing he could have done better than that was bring Johnson back. Booger hiring Parcells and giving him control was the shockwave of that season.
I have this sinking feeling that we won't see another championship caliber team until Jerry dies. I'm not a monster, of course. I'm not hoping for him to die. I would much rather see him make the changes needed to make this team a winner. I don't have anything against him as a human being. He's a great guy. I just don't think he's the right guy to be our GM. I think he should delegate that out. It's extremely frustrating.
