tr1 Posted October 28, 2006 Share Posted October 28, 2006 Who would have thought Gailey had more success than Bill...remarkable. By Newy Scruggs Special to the Star-Telegram http://www.dfw.com/mld/dfw/sports/15872298.htm "Bill Parcells, a New Jersey Con Man, all wrong for Texas" "Tuna Refuses to Stay the Course... Romo sits to pee In" "Big Bill Cuts and Runs on Bledsoe" Luckily, Cowboys coach Bill Parcells is not running for political office, because he'd see slogans and ads aimed at his leadership of the 3-3 Dallas Cowboys. I'm joking... I think. The Cowboys' season will not go to the polls Nov. 7. Parcells has 10 games to show us if he has a clue and can take this team to the playoffs with a free-agent quarterback 32 teams, including the Cowboys, decided not to draft four years ago. One day, Parcells will be enshrined into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. At this point, it will be for his work with three teams up north, and his Texas folly will be forgotten. Drew Bledsoe, once taken as the top overall draft pick by Parcells, deserved to be benched for making the kind of turnovers veterans shouldn't. It speaks to a bigger problem of the Tuna's administration. Since taking Dave Campo's players and going 10-6 with a playoff appearance in 2003, the Tuna has failed to make the postseason. Parcells purged all but 10 players from that playoff team. Since Tuna has turned the roster over to consist of "Parcells Guys," the question must be asked: "How come the head coach doesn't catch any heat?" The future Hall of Famer (28-26 in four years with the Cowboys) gets off easier than Chan Gailey and Dave Campo did during their mediocre runs as the coaches of America's Team. In two seasons, Gailey won the NFC East once and produced two playoff teams. Campo went 5-11 three times before Parcells took over. All deemed not good enough from the Cowboys' constituency. Parcells' biggest blunders seem to be at quarterback. Quincy Carter was cut in training camp in 2004 after taking the team to the playoffs and was replaced by the 40-year-old Interception, Vinny Testaverde, a former Parcells guy with the Jets. Drew Bledsoe found his way to town after Buffalo released him, and now he's riding the pine this weekend. These moves qualify as failure. Romo sits to pee could be the next Tom Brady. Odds say he won't be. The playoffs are still attainable, but only if the Cowboys can find a way to start beating teams with winning records. A team like Carolina in Charlotte on NBC's Sunday Night Football would be a good start. The heat should be turned up on the offensive line, T.O., the kicker, the defense, but most of all on the man who put the plan together and got a raise to come back and coach in 2006 -- Bill Parcells.

Ken Posted October 28, 2006 Share Posted October 28, 2006 no westy...Parcells has disappointed me to this point. I had high hopes for this year but it appears they will be crushed. I thought we would be able to lean on our defense. That has not been the case. Whether Romo sits to pee or Bledsoe, I thought our d would win us a lot of games. If our Defense turns into the dominant unit that a lot of people predicted, we can still be very dangerous. I am a fan of Romo sits to pee and think it is one of the better moves Parcells has made.

THEHEREAFTER Posted October 28, 2006 Share Posted October 28, 2006 Cue Dallas fans talking about Gibbs not having as much success as Spurrier in 3, 2, .... :no: That would be changing the subject. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: This insn't an open debate. This is about Bill and Bill only. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: Bill has certainly made a few bad decisions in Dallas. Right now he's a dissapointing 26-24 with one playoff loss. Time to show and prove Billy. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tr1 Posted October 28, 2006 Author Share Posted October 28, 2006 Cue Dallas fans talking about Gibbs not having as much success as Spurrier in 3, 2, .... Idiotic. Spurrier never made it to the playoffs, much less won a playoff game...you know, like Bill. I guess the puke fans would have trouble mentioning Spurrier... And, it would be changing the subject.

Gibbs has done a fine job. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: Back to the topic though, Billy isn't beyond criticism. He's definitely under the gun. :laugh: I like this article. :laugh: :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That article reminded me that he took Dave Campo's players to the playoffs is quite and eye-opener. I had forgotten... Gibbs should be criticized as well, to be fair, though I think his second tenure with the Skins has turned out better than Parcells' with the Cowboys, imo.

At 11-16 Gibbs made that unbelievable 5 game run to make the playoffs. Can't take that away from him. :laugh: :laugh: Back to Parcells. These next 10 games will weigh heavily towards his tenure in Dallas. If Romo sits to pee shows promise, I see him staying another year and developing a better O-line for another run.
