Just announced. He might have some comments on The Player's "out of touch" claims.

I'm sure the old blowhard will chime in on that any many other subjects

Golic just said Parcells tenure in Dallas was "not a success given his resume'."

His resume of not winning a Superbowl since LT got old?

Seems like it was right in line with his resume.

He mentioned that the expectations in Dallas are higher, said the Ravens built from an 8-8 team to a Super Bowl Champion the next year and said Parcells' results in Dallas should have been better.

I agree completely. He underachieved my expectations.

He may not have won a superbowl here and may have lost the team to a degree as well but the experience that has rubbed off on Jerry and the state he has left this team is pretty nice.

This may be heresy, but I've always quibbled a little bit with the greatness of Parcells' resume. Is he a great coach? Without a doubt. But he's a missed chip shot field goal from being a one-trick pony.

I think the Bill Parcells legacy of underachieving was in full effect during the playoffs last year.

I defended Bill while he was here and after he left ..... But I am getting tired of hearing how he "righted the ship" when most of his high draft picks were underachievers, bad position picks, or outright busts.

I appreciate the high draft picks you got right Bill ...... thanks

Bill was better than Campo. That earns him a pass.

He won more games with Campo's players and Wade won more with his players than he did.

I expected more. I don't think that is wrong.

Personally, I think Jerry has gotten a lot less of the credit than he deserves.

Yeah, he should be sending Scott Norwood some money every so often for solidifying his legacy. Without that, he has one ring (and that's with LT and a pretty stacked defense).

Yes, Eric Kuselias has been on ESPN all day trying to make a big deal out of Terrell Owens' comments.

Luckily, Mike Golic has been there to counter alot of his absurd claims.

As I stated many times on this board, if you ask just about anybody on this board in the Spring of 2003, "What are your expectations at the least for Bill Parcells" nobody would have said 0 Playoff Victories.

He left this team in pretty good shape, but there is no way he was a complete success.

I have to say I still like BP and still feel he was the right man at the right time for the Cowboys. In the end he was unable to achieve all he wanted but I do think he played a role in the changing of this team and think we are better off because he was part of the organization.

I certainly expect more success on the field.

I apreciate what he did off the field (for the most part) and feel he helped turn around our front office.

He deserves credit for that. But.....

I agree. He certainly put the team on the right road and taught Jerry a lot about running a team. But I think his genius is way overstated. And I think TO and Golic are right, to a degree. You can't treat NFL players like high school kids anymore.

I do agree some of today’s players are different and need to be handled differently than years past. I also agree that some go overboard with the BP love in terms of his genius. I see BP as an old fashion in your face hardnosed coach and while some players like TO can't handle that treatment I think many others on the team needed that shake up.

Exactly. And Miami is no different. Jason Taylor is the epitome of the player who doesn't need to be moulded by Bill Parcells.

I didn't like him before we hired him, the entire time he was here, and now....he's way passed his prime and his prime was overrated to begin with.
