Hypocrisy at its best.
Anyone brings up Landry or Belichick's rough starts and you scream about comparing Garrett to a HOF coach, well the ball is in your court since Parcells is a HOF coach we should expect better than .500 right?
If anyone brings up Landry or Belichick's "rough starts" to somehow excuse Garrett's futility, I will laugh at them as they deserve to be.
What I find hypocritical is that people like you gripe that Parcells did not deliver the goods, but bend over backwards to excuse a novice who didn't take over a dumpster fire and right the franchise. By all rights, the talent Garrett inherited could have and should have been enough for at least one playoff appearance if he made a few simple moves each season that stole a game or two.
Am I happy Coach Parcells did not bring a Super Bowl? Absolutely not. But I can see what he left behind was significant.
But at no time under Parcells' watch did we set franchise records for defensive futility, for example. At no time did they allow losses to occur like Detroit and Green Bay that basically were historically significant rarities that are nearly impossible to believe.
For every excuse you have why Garrett has not got over the hump, it is completely neutralized by the fact he inherited a football team with a QB and quite a bit of talent in his area of specialty.
Any sort of deconstruction if you can even call it that he has had to do did not even come close to what Parcells had to not only do to the roster, but how the entire organization was run.
Garrett still is a novice and there is nothing tangible that you or anyone else can point at as a sign he is getting smarter as a head football coach. Other than vague romantic feelings that he is "building something". Parcells resurrected a franchise that was in the toilet and basically reestablished relevance.
The mistakes he is making that impact football games are still here. If you thought Parcells was senile and that made his era a failure, you have an equal effect now of Garrett's inexperience and failure to progress making his just as futile.
