There was nothing really great or bad about those Parcells teams. And certainly not at QB.
He fucking stays if he believes he's got THE guy at QB. He saw the choker future and he was right.
If he thought he had ANY chance to get another ring, he fucking stays. Think about it. Retires right after Romo fumbles the game away at Seattle. He knew what was coming.
Real coach and GM/player personnel would have a real QB. Parcells retired rather than go on stuck with Jerry's boi Romo. Do any of you romosexuals really think the Tuna retires if he thinks he's got THE guy?
