Yeah but you are what you are.

Guy had four years to turn it around.

Did he increase overall talent? Yeah. Could he do fuckall with the improved talent? No.

Different situations. Parcells got to the playoffs with Quincy and Hambrick. He should have coach of the year for that

Took a cellar dwelling team and built a playoff team out of them.

Garrett started with pieces in place....including a franchise QB and HoF caliber pass rusher and TE and can't even get to the playoffs

Yes, overall Parcells results were mediocre. However he did more for Dallas than any coach since

Good for retooling the team. Lousy fucking coach here.

I think he only really had 1 year that you could even argue that the pieces were in place (2006). I agree he didn't win enough but I hate to think what the team would have looked like without him

Team also went into a drafting hole once he left. Never built on what he started

10-6 with Quincy Carter.

Tuna laid the foundation that still is with the team today. He had the team trending in a good direction. I don't think he could have done much more if he stayed longer, but think what this team would be without Romo, Witten, Ware, etc.

He was much better than the current coach. Garrett is trending toward every year being a 8-8 team, no matter what the situation is.

Agree with all of that.

By all accounts, that's exactly what Callahan is going to do.

Werder even claimed that one thing Tony has been wanting to do is run the ball more. Said that might sound counterintuitive for a QB, but Tony realizes he can't carry the offense all by himself.


Tony would love to not have to pass almost 41 times a game is my guess. Most QB's would.
