you got any pills handy? and why does disagreeing with someone make some people think the one disagreeing with you is some animated, flailing whack-job frothing at the mouth in their replies?

i don't care who you see as the best now - you YOURSELF SAID that anything less than the superbowl is a failure.

so parcells has failed 4 times and you still think he's the best for the job.

amazing to me.

heaven forbid passionate fans will talk about their team in such a manner! how dare they/we?!?! we should just sit around and watch brilliance in action and lob in an occasional golf clap and a BRAVO! and remain quiet.

No, it is called having a little bit of intellect to be able to do more than cry and moan about how Parcells has ruined the franchise, while all the while cluelessly promoting other coaching alternatives that don't even get so much as a look from other franchises in even worse positions than we are.

As far as college coaches go, I would have put Ferrentz there- but this year he really sucked and I doubt his ability now. That young guy at BOise State who so schooled Stoops- now THERE is a real possibility.

And I ask you, when you bring your car to be serviced, do you have to know HOW to fix the problem to know there IS one?

Ridiculous logic.

We are not football GM's here.

Then again, Jerry isn't either and ultimately THAT is what the problem is.

Exactly, and that's why the Cowboys are doomed to failure until Jerry leaves this earth.

Actually, if this were a car repair analogy, some would hear a strange noise in the engine and assume we need to replace the whole motor immediately instead of looking at the real symptoms.

Because it's his post...let's keep this one to his subject...if you want to call him out, start a new post. I hate posts that don't keep to the subject. Makes wading through pages of garbage when you were anticipating another thing.


For sure, I mean I did not name 2 coaches who I thought would be better then Parcells. I mean after all the thread subject name was "Time to NAME NAMES"

That's about off subject as it gets:confused:

Yo Alex that was a good one. Someone hears a noside under the hood and decides to get another car.

Could it be that Rivera has interviewed for nearly a half dozen vacancies and lost out each and every time? Or could it be that Rex Ryan has yet to receive one single interview?

Heaven forbid people that actually do work for in the NFL for a living and know the game might actually have a firmer grasp on things than fans and the media.


Yet only two of the hottest names in the NFL ranks right now.

Heaven forbid it's ok to make an arguement for Parcells and act as if you have a firmer grasp on things that fans and the media but don't make one against him.

Ryan and Rivera. At least he came up with names. No real evidence beyond that, but he did give names.

it's also called "trust in bill and use that to make fun of people who don't".

fans speculate and it gets crazy at times. if that bugs you, seek help cause it's not gonna change.

Exactely! Parcells needs a new muffler bearing...a wiper blade, and an oil change.

actually - it would depend on the noise.

simple rattle from cheap gas?
lifter noise?
smoking more than it should?
valve job do the trick?
fuel line issue?

the trouble with the analogy is that when an engine goes out the signs are clear and people don't normally fall in love with the past glory of an engine.

when a "coach goes out" it's all debateable to no end.

Hot names? So if they are so hot, why is Rivera now a four or five time bridesmaid? Why is Ryan getting nothing and even Brian Billick is amazed why not? Rivera could be getting more looks simply because he fits the Rooney Rule and not because he is actually a great candidate. And since Ryan isn't getting any interviews, what makes him "hot"? The fact John Clayton probably mentioned he is once?

Heaven forbid it's ok to make an arguement for Parcells and act as if you have a firmer grasp on things that fans and the media but don't make one against him.

This makes absolutely no sense at all. It is easier to exagerrate how dire our situation is and claim how we are a sinking ship than to actually look at the reality of our situation. We aren't dead in the water yet and making a change just to do it is an act of desperation without sound reasons why.

Do you need to look any further then the product they put on the field? If you do then take into account they are two of the hottest names in the NFL right now.

I wonder how Parcells would of ever made his way to the NFL head coaching ranks back in 1982 with the philosophy that some of you guys use.
