Bill Parcells is overrated!!!

[ncskinsfanec]

Bill Parcells gets all this press for being a great coach, but the man hasn't done squat since he parted ways with Bellichick. I hate to hear these uninformed supposed sports experts gush all over Parcells when he hasn't won a playoff game since 1998. Parcells couldn't carry Joe Gibbs jockstrap. Gibbs is a far superior coach even though it has been a tough season this year. In 15 years this will be only Gibbs 3rd losing season, in 19 seasons Parcells has five. Gibbs has a 17-6 playoff record while Parcells is only 11-7. I think there's only one active coach on Gibbs level and that would have to be the aforementioned Bellichick, who's not even close to Gibbs when it comes to class and professionalism.

This is Parcells fourth stint I believe.

[dall-assblows]

you get what i mean

Both are great coaches, and Parcells has been one the few coaches to get the better of Gibbs throughtout their career. I love our coach too but he needs to be more hands on like Parcells, and not just delegate to the many assitant head vice-sub coaches that we have.

I remember early this year that Gibbs said that our coaching staff is one of the hardest working in the league........Hmmm, not so much in my opinion. These guys at times look lost and unprepared at crucial times.

They stay late and try hard, they just haven't seen the results.

what does overrated mean in your eyes? not winning the super bowl? all i know is i wouldn't take anyone over coach Gibbs, but if he were to retire, and parcells wanted to take over, i would be happy. and as far as bellichek, don't get me started. he was going no where fast in new england until drew bledsoe gets hurt. and he wasn't even thinking about making a qback change. and the rest, as they say, is history. how well did he do with the talent less browns? its all about the players, my friend

Even good players made Barry Switzer look like an NFL genius. You can be the greatest coach in the world, but if you haven't got the players then you're probably going nowhere. There isn't a season that proves that point more than this one. What I was saying with the Parcells is overrated thing is that he's hyped up like he's the greatest coach ever not named Lombardi, but his last playoff victory was in 1998 with the Jets. The media gushes all over Parcells but have seemed to forgotten just how great Gibbs was and what he can still bring to the table. I think it's probably because Parcells likes to draw attention to himself (just watch his press conferences) and Gibbs is humble and respectful. At least that's one factor to it.

He cut Bernie Kosar for throwing a TD off a sandlot play.

he probably should have given him a raise.

Gibbs always will be my favorite coach of all time, but this year Parcells will be in the playoffs.

Gibbs' three-year record during his second act is nearly the same as the Marty/Spurrier years:

Gibbs is 21-26 in the regular season since his return; Washington's record over the previous three seasons was 20-28.

The difference is that Gibbs got us to the playoffs & won a game, hadn't happened since the Norv era in 99-00.

He's my favorite of all time too, and we'll be back in the hunt soon.
