Parcells never had a problem working with Jerry. This meddling by Jerry is a myth.
Remember the guy known as "the player" by Parcells?

We need a coach who walks in the door with that kind of gravitas, and keeps Jerry out of any coaching-related role of any kind so that all of the accountability among the staff and players is to the head coach.
That is Qualification #1.

TO. If I remember correctly, Parcells said he would not be here if he did not want him here. I don't believe Jerry forced TO on Parcells. Been a long while though. Some may remember better than me.
It never seemed like it regardless what was said publicly.
I also do not think that parcells cared about TO being on the team. TO was less then a headache more then what taylor was when he coached the giants.TO.

I don't recall seeing anything Jerry did to meddle in the way Garrett coached... Jerry wasn't telling Garrett who to play, what plays to call, how to practice, etc.
Jerry involved in the draft is not meddling. He istens to the scouts and coaches and the group comes to a decision. If there is disagreement, then Jerry can break the tie. That is not meddling.

Parcells also told his players to not pay attention to anything in the media. Only those who were inside with the team at the time knew the truth. What you saw in the media was not the truth. Parcells, like Johnson, was a master of the psych games.
Because when/if Saints start sucking no one will care. In Dallas even 5-11 the Cowboys are relevant.Except Dallas isn't chopped liver.
I'm absolutely not saying it would happen, but I am saying it's absurd to get to this point and say, "Oh well, not even going to pursue that."
