If I were Parcells, I'd make damn sure I were talking to TO a ton privately behind the scenes in an effort to get on the same page.
Parcells isn't a guy that typically allows relationships to detiorate through the media. Usually if you come at him with a "So and so said..." question, he'll cut you off with something along the lines of, "Really? And how am I to know he said that? He hasn't said that to me" response.
TO, on the other hand, isn't so smooth with the media. Come at him with the same question, and he'll come back with a seemingly harsh criticism in an attempt to defend himself.
That's the first thing I'd do.
Beyond that, I'm not too concerned he's not out there. The rest of the team can't come off thinking it's OK to miss everything, but with TO I'm not too worried. Chemistry or not, I think he can be a game breaker on just about every team on Sundays.
