It's no mystery that the organization started turning around when Bill Parcells arrived on the scene.
Also, Bill Parcells had medicore Quarterbacks for most of the time he was here. Would be interesting to see what Parcells would have done with a more seasoned Tony Romo.
Parcells was HC for four years. No playoff wins.
He's coached four teams, and took three of them to at least a Conference Championship game. The Giants, Patriots and Jets, all three made it conference championship games. Two SB wins with NY, one SB appearance with the Pats, and one AFC Champ. game with the Jets.
That body of work is FAAAAARRRRRRRR removed from what he accomplished in Dallas. Dallas fans don't celebrate "turning things around". We don't have parades down main street because we made the playoffs (see New Orleans, Detriot, Seattle). Like the Yankees and Celtics and Jeff Gordon, NOTHING but a ring will do. Or at least spill some blood trying in a Conference Championship game.
Parcells had at least as much talent with Dallas (if not more) than those three other teams he took far into the playoffs. His style, his ego, his refusing to call T.O. anything besides "the player", stuff like that..........it was all about Parcells and the "Parcells way of doing things". The game had passed him by.................
