If Parcells fails again on the o-line next year then it shall be warranted for his immediate removal. We have seen what Bledsoe is capable of doing when given the time. If the o-line is not the biggest priority in the offseason and the draft. If Big Bill can't figure that out, then he doesn't need to be coaching in the first place.

He could have given Henson all the shot he wanted to last year, and why didn't he? There is nothing on this planet that will convince me that Henson or Romo didn't deserve a chance the last 5 or 6 games.

He made an epic mistake of biblical perportions when he didn't let those kids play. I can understand now why he wouldn't but the only thing I can think of is, he's a selfish man that is out to prove to the world that he's going to do **** his way.

I love the smell of hyperbole in the afternoon.


I somehow doubt putting Henson through 10-12 consecutive halves of what we saw during the Bears game is going to be his undoing in Dallas.

Well at least you have an open mind about things.

But for the record, Henson had been out of football 3 years and Romo is an UFA who hadn't progressed far enough to warrant playing time. Furthermore Bill obviously didn't like what he saw in the Bears game from Drew.

You can disagree with Bill's methods for grooming QB's all you want, but that doesn't lock in stone that Drew Bledsoe is the QB until he leaves, especially when Bill flat out states in a press conference he doesn't have his QB situation settled yet.

We'll see this offseason. If Henson gets sent to Europe then he is probably following the Hutch Express out of town. If not, and he stays on the roster another year, he will get a look in TC, as will Romo.

Bledsoe's contract is easily cuttable for a reason.

Well next time around he should get another guy from a big time college program.. doesnt really matter who although it would be a plus if he has nice hair.

Make it coincide with having the top pick in the draft that year (or close enough to it) so you can take the best QB available and then throw him to the wolves.

Then with any luck we'll go 1-15/ 2-14 so we can take the best stud WR. Even trade down to get an extra pick(s)

Make sure you dont hit .500 the 2nd year so you can get a stud RB.

At this point nobody will have any beefs because "thats more or less how Jimmy did it"

In the 3rd year it would be good to make a playoff appearance even if you get spanked by 30.. it would mean you were right on course.

In the 4th year if you fail miserably, oh well. Then you just start over with a new 4 year plan as teams have been doing forever. Even those who have never won a thing.

Hey, it worked for the Texans.

I like your thinking - but there's no patience around here for that

well there's always next year. next year is when flozell adams comes back to reclaim his left tackle spot. next year is when we bring more competition for the right tackle spot. next year pettiti has spent one whole offseason in the conditioning program and he might develop into a descent OT. next year is when we can draft more guards to compete with our aging duo. next year we can bring in another fullback-richie-anderson-type to help out on third downs. next year we bring more help at the wr position where the last time we drafted anybody high was 1993 when we drafted kevin williams out of miami.

in the meantime we are who we are. a flawed offensive team who needs all the breaks it can get in order to win.

Some of you want Parcells fired this year or at least not extended beyond next year. Some have suggested Mike Holmgren and Jimmy Johnson.

For the record, Holmgren took over as GM/HC of Seattle in January 99 & at end of that season, they posted first ever playoff appearance. Regressed for next few years until 2003 was they won double digit victories for first time (since 1986). In 2004 won NFC West for first time. This year they've won NFC West again and looks to be 1st seed & maybe NFC SB appearance given play of NFC teams this year. So it took Holmgren in his 7th season to make this team a legit SB contender and Holmgren took GB QB Hasselbeck with him. And most of us believed we should have beaten them since we were leading with only minutes to go by a TD. If some of you still want Holmgren and prepared to wait 7 years to become legit SB (where they will lose to Colts), then common sense says to give Parcells at least thru end of his contract.

Please go away.

There you go. Thats what I am thinking too. The bottom line. The Oline stinks right now and with that improved, we are majorly improved in all areas of the game, including Defense, as they wont be on the field as much as they ar now.

Some people here seem to think that it's blasphemy to suggest that Parcells should retire or be fired. I can somewhat understand their thinking based on the coaches who proceeded him. However, we should remember that there was a time when Parcells wasn't a championship caliber coach.
There are other coaches out there who could do a good job for this franchise if given an opportunity. I am not in favor of Parcells being fired before his contract is up, but if the team doesn't do any better next year then it may be time to explore other options.

Let's face it......we live in a "what have you done for me lately society".
