Is Bill turning into Woody Hayes ?

Bro, he went for it on his own freaking 35 on 4th and 2 a few weeks ago! How much bigger do they have to get before you see them!

You make a good point here but he does tend to be hot and cold at times.


Maybe one's missing. :laugh2:

That's not "cojones", that was insanity and every one in the park knew it. "She" even admitted after the game it was stupid.

Having "cojones" is going for the kill when you have the ball inside the 15 yard line with less than 4 minutes to play 4 times already in a 7 game season and not pulling the wuss job "she" has done which is admittedly playing for the FG with the worst kicker in the league.

Bah, Jimmy Johnson would do crazy stuff like that too. You launch a Super Bowl dynasty and many sins are forgiven.

Come on.....Parcells couldn't touch Hayes with a 10 foot pole on that one!

Unless he runs out and knocks the ***** out of Babineaux for having the gaul to pick off that pass....Not even close!

And by the way that's what he should have done!

The biggest problem with BP is his conservative nature. He even stated in his press conference that they had to get at least 3 points the second time they had the ball inside the 15 in the 4th quarter. What kind of message is he sending the offensive players if he is playing to avoid the mistakes instead of winning the game? I dont see how you can have the ball on the 12 and 9 and not try playaction of even attempt to throw the ball in the endzone on first or second down either time. Its crazy to get down 2 turnovers and that kind of field position and not try to put the game away I dont care how the Oline is playing or about any other excuses you have to go for the knock out punch. He failed to do so and once again it cost Dallas the game.

Maybe he doesn't trust his bus driver to manage the game.

He trusted him enough to call that out pattern with 14 seconds left.

Since when has football ever been a "classy" sport? Heck even my Christian head high school football coach wasn't afraid to shove us and kick us around every once in a while. It just goes with the territory. That's football. It's a nasty sport and I'm sure a lot more crap goes on in practices that we don't see when it comes to Parcells demeanor.

Parcells is consistently uncomprising when it comes to attention to detail and discipline. That's the difference between him and Dave Campo/Barry Switzer. That what makes him great.

My only issue with Parcells is that he has become even more obsessed with control than he was 10 years ago. He doesn't have as much patience as he used to. As stubborn as Parcells was, he at least had enough sense to draft Drew Bledsoe and develop him as a rookie instead of going with has beens like Vinny Testaverde and now an aged Drew Bledsoe. I think this is where Parcells is slipping. He is too hell bent on resorting to veterans he trusts as opposed to having the patience and developing talent. He should have started Henson last season after the season was lost and allowed him to develop. If Bledsoe doesn't shape up, that was 2 precious years we lost in which we could have developed Henson.

The same Henson who can't even beat out Tony Romo. It would have been better to draft Jason Campbell instead,someone who was available to us and was a four year starter last year.

Yes, that same Henson. Or even Romo. The point is a valid one. It may not be Henson or Romo but the development issue is always going to be there.
