Ask anyone what Parcells legacy is, and they will say its his ability to motivate players. He supposedly knows what to say, when to say it, how to say it, and it supposedly has this mythical effect on his players.

Yet, during his tenure in Dallas, his teams have done nothing but underachieve, underperform, and look flat and unprepaired in big games.


I'm personally tired of the routine.

I'm tired of having a coach who is too busy playing mind games too call his star receiver when he's admitted in the hospital.

Or he's too busy playing mind games to get said star receiver involved in games (especially against the Eagles) early.

He's too busy playing mind games to give Romo proper credit.

Your mind games aren't working anymore Parcells.

You're a shell of yourself, and you've never been anything without Bill Belicek.

From sticking with Zimmer, keeping Quincy, going to Testeverde, signing Bledsoe, not improving the Oline, making questionable draft picks, etc etc etc..... you've made far more bad decisions than good ones.

This fan is sick and tired of it.

Have we underachieved or just played to our ability? That is the question. Everyone here claims 2003 was a mirage yet when we fell to 6-10 the next year, people complained about underachieving.

Last year, posters complained we were only an average yet also complained when we finished 9-7.

This year, many of the complainers also claimed we were 7-9 to 9-7 yet are complaining that we are 9-6 at this point.

Oh, okay. Great point.

So in 4 years, Parcells has assembled a no better than average team.

Lets hope he sticks around another year!

more nonsense after a loss.

where are the pacifiers to hand out.

underachieving is the giants this year after starting 6-2

romo is 6-3 (4-1 on the road) and might finish 7-3 with us 10-6

get a perspective

The nonsense is an alledged hall of fame coach routinely getting outcoached.

Sean Payton and Andy Reid humiliated Parcells, and Parcells didn't have an answer for it.

Thats nonsense.

Agree. We were horrible in 03, and if we are honest with each other our tallent when he got here has really hopeless. Remember the 5-11 years. We were HORRIBLE. Bottom line to me is that we will be in the playoffs, and havea shot at getting to the dance. If you want to look at underachieving lets look at how the folks in Carolina are feeling right about now.

He beat Fisher who has a team with half the talent, an over-the-hill RB and a TRUE rookie QB....are you kidding me?

Give Fisher this talent and I guarantee you this team would have been better in the two biggest games of the year at HOME!!

This team has underachieved based on what it is capable of. To say that the defense has not underachieved this year is homeristic IMO...time and time again they have been unable to get the big stop when we need it.

More than anything their heart and effort have underachieved tremendously the last few weeks, especially on the defensive side of the ball.
