Entries tagged with ‘Bill Parcells’Trading up for McFadden would be ‘foolish’So says Sports Illustrated’s Peter King, who offered some unsolicited advice to Jerry in this week’s edition of Monday Morning Quarterback. Don’t even consider making such a foolish trade. That’s right. It’s foolish. Never, ever, ever, ever pay a ransom… Cowboys preparing for assistants to leaveJerry confirmed that the Cowboys are preparing as if the three assistant coaches whose contracts expired won’t be back. At this point, it’d be surprising if Todd Bowles (secondary), Paul Pasqualoni (linebackers) and Kacy Rodgers (defensive line) don’t join Tony… Coaching staff loses best butt kickerTony Sparano, a proven play-caller, was the reason I thought all the worry about Jason Garrett getting a head coaching job was overblown. All that changed when Bill Parcells scratched his football itch. Suddenly, Sparano became a hot coaching candidate,… See ya, SparanoArmando Salguero of the Miami Herald reports that Dolphins GM Jeff Ireland boarded a private plane to Dallas this morning and will return with Tony Sparano this evening. So unless something goes unexpectedly off course, the Dolphins are navigating toward… Superstar columnist supports WadeI might be the biggest Wade Phillips apologist in the media. Heck, I’ve been on board with him since the day Bill Parcells called it quits. (Memo to Wade: These last couple days have been tough — especially your post-mortem… Cowboys can’t take advantage of scrub CBsFor the second straight year, the Cowboys failed to exploit an injury-depleted secondary in the playoffs. And you can’t blame Bill Parcells’ conservative game plan this time. The Seahawks had so many injuries that they were forced to pull Pete… Romo focused on football in MexicoTony Romo talked to the Valley Ranch media horde today. Believe it or not, the Simpson Family Bye Week Fiesta was a hot topic of conversation. Romo certainly didn’t apologize for leaving the country during the bye weekend. He did… Remembering Romo’s playoff QB performanceI’m sure Tony Romo will be asked a question or two about the Seattle Slip when he talks to the media tomorrow, although he seems to have recovered from that painful moment pretty well, judging by the franchise records he… Ireland introduced in MiamiAP Jeff Ireland was introduced as the Dolphins’ general manager this morning, a few hours after he dismissed Cam Cameron as coach. He had his Parcells-isms down. He talked about changing the culture, adding passionate football players and big… Jerry’s willing to let Ireland goSure doesn’t sound like Jerry plans to take my advice of resigning as GM and giving Jeff Ireland the title to keep him around Valley Ranch. Matter of fact, Jerry sounds prepared to let Ireland reunite with Bill Parcells in… Cromartie could have been great fitWith all the recent talk about Bobby Carpenter being a bust, I figured now would be a fine time to discuss other players that were available when the Cowboys drafted Carpenter 18th overall in 2006. It doesn’t take long to… Crayton’s dealThe Cowboys did not re-sign Patrick Crayton to keep him away from Bill Parcells in Miami. It was just silly talk to think Crayton would have been interested in going to the Dolphins – he has been one of the… Jerry should resign as GMThis might seem like an awfully strange time to say that, since Jerry looks like a genius with the Cowboys at 13-2. And it’s not meant as a criticism of Jerry. This is about making sure that the Cowboys keep… Jerry on ParcellsLooks like 790 The Ticket might as well be hubbed not in Miami, but the Metroplex, because the Cowboys talk keeps coming from them. Jerry Jones is a guest on The Michael Irvin Show, and he’s been effusive in his… Tuna to the rescueJean-Jacques Taylor says that Bill Parcells is going to make a big difference in Miami. In fact, JJT went as far as guaranteeing the Dolphins will be in the AFC title game four years from now. I’m not making that… Parcells-to-Dolphins is done dealIt’s official: Former Cowboys coach Bill Parcells has been hired to run the football operations for the Miami Dolphins. At 1-13, the Dolphins need all the help they can get. Is Tuna the answer? Tell us in our survey…. ESPN: Tuna close to becoming a FishESPN is reporting this hour that Bill Parcells has a four-year deal in place to become the Dolphins’ vice president of football operations. Here’s an excerpt: Parcells has a four-year agreement in place to become the Dolphins vice president of… Parcells’ reactionWith it appearing as if Bill Parcells will become Atlanta’s Vice President of Footbaall Operations, the reaction around Valley Ranch was not one of surpise. Of course Terrell Owens said he wasn’t talking about Parcells, so we’re not sure what… Parcells probably a FalconESPN’s Chris Mortensen now has former Giants/Patriots/Jets/Cowboys coach Bill Parcells on record as saying that he’ll probably accept an offer to become VP of football ops. “I’m pretty sure I’m going to do it. [Owner] Arthur [Blank] and I have… Report: Parcells could become Falcons’ bossESPN’s Chris Mortensen reports that Bill Parcells could become the Falcons’ vice president of football operations as soon as tomorrow. Atlanta owner Arthur Blank apparently has made an offer and is basically begging the Tuna to fix the mess that… T.O.’s favorite coach at it againMuch has been made of T.O.’s relationship (or lack thereof) with Bill Parcells, but the Original 81 and ex-Cowboys WR coach Todd Haley really didn’t get along. T.O. isn’t the only one who isn’t real fond of Haley’s combative coaching… Keyshawn’s response to T.O. really stinksGive ESPN credit for showing great restraint with the T.O.-Keyshawn-Tuna love/hate triangle story. Our Disney pals didn’t even dedicate five full minutes of SportsCenter to this sensationalizable story. Keyshawn explained that he was just trying to give T.O. good… Another Parcells apologist yammers awayTexas Tech hoops coach/errant hunter Bob Knight abruptly cut short his interview with KTCK-AM 1310 The Ticket when asked if he’d shot at anybody recently, but the hosts wisely waited awhile offending the General.

Right now, he’s an afterthought, with New England’s Bill Belichick, Cleveland’s Romeo Crennel and Green Bay’s Mike McCarthy considered the primary… |
