Parcells Role In Game Planning?

[RiggoForever]

I was curious, with your minicamp coming up this week and the departure of Sean Payton, what role this year will Parcells have in game planning for both offense and defense?

Does Zimmer have free reign to create the defensive game plan? Or must he go through Parcells for approval? I know at Commanders Park Joe Gibbs lets Gregg Williams do everything on the defensive end.

How do you anticipate your offensive game planning to go? Do you feel that there will be a new playbook, or just more 2 TE plays emphasized in the old playbook? Many here think Parcells will be calling the plays this year.

I guess my basic question is...as a former defensive coordinator, does Parcells focus on the defensive side of the ball and let others handle the offense? Where does he focus the majority of his game planning focus?

Man that Gary Payton is one talented dude...point guard for the Miami Heat and now head coach of the New Orleans Saints!

J/K man, good question. I suspect Parcells will shift some of the offensive game planning to new quarterbacks coach Chris Palmer. Parcells, Palmer, and Bledsoe have history together.

BTW, you meant Sean Payton.

Jeez I hope Parcells doesn't shift too much to Palmer. He was terrible as the Browns Coach, and bad as the OC for the Texans. Does not seem very adaptable to me. I know he is said to have done well in Jacksonville, but he hasn't impressed in the last 8 or so years....
