this was predictable with all these coaches being fired or quitting.....don't be surprised if we get our first tranny coach.....

but you all know its a totally fixed nfl....everything is fixed and they hire coaches who they know will be compliant with the gambling interests.....

there is no professional football, maybe no professional sports anywhere....college probably isn't far behind...

I’m familiar with New England—my sister-in-law was from Vermont. There are a lot of patriots and many Red communities in that part of the country.

The guy is a walking, corporate, hack-speak cliche.

He talked for hours this week in his pressers and press interviews and didn’t offer an original take on anything the entire time. Yet he preened and strutted through it all.

Meanwhile, he’s a grotesque suck-up who constantly called the 82yo owner of the team “Thunder” or “Young Thundercat” through their entire presser together.

Saw some of the press conference with owner Kraft and new coach. He’s a diversity hire. Let’s see if he can win.

Did Kraft blink “help me” in Morse code?

Uh, no.

Parcells put in 15 as a college coach, including HC for the Air Force Academy, before coaching in the NFL at all.

From wikipedia:

“He began as an assistant coach at Hastings (1964) before moving on to Wichita State (1965), Army (1966–69), Florida State (1970–72), Vanderbilt (1973–74), and Texas Tech (1975–77). In 1978, he became the head coach at the Air Force Academy for one season.[7]

While serving as linebackers coach at Army, Parcells was also a part-time assistant basketball coach for Bob Knight during the 1966–67 season, which led to their longtime friendship.[17][18]

Professional coaching career
New York Giants (1979, 1981–1990)
In 1979, Parcells accepted an offer to become the defensive coordinator of the New York Giants under head coach Ray Perkins but, before the season started, he resigned and took a job with a land development company in Colorado.[19] While living in Colorado, Parcells became a season ticket holder with the Denver Broncos. Parcells called it the most miserable year of his life.[7]

Feeling dissatisfied with his life away from football, Parcells returned to the sport in 1980 as the linebackers coach of the New England Patriots under Ron Erhardt.[7]

The following season, Parcells was approached once again by Perkins to join the Giants’ staff as an assistant coach, and Parcells accepted the offer. As defensive coordinator and linebackers coach, he was allowed to change the team’s 4–3 defense to a 3–4 system.[7] When Perkins announced on December 15, 1982, that he was leaving the Giants at the end of the season to become head coach and athletic director at the University of Alabama, the Giants announced that Parcells would succeed him as head coach.[7]”

I don’t even have a TV.

To me (and this is my opinion) pro sports was over when they took a “knee” to the National Anthem.

Multi millionaires playing kids games and acting like spoiled brats.

Wasting a weekend watching TV is such a waste of time.

Short answer…No. He’s a hateful racist that’s going to get eat up and spit out. He’s perfect for the National Felon League.

>>>I have never liked the Patriots. There is no bigger asshole than a Boston asshole.>>>

A New Jersey @##$%$# comes pretty close.

The Steelers coach Tomlin, while mediocre in all but stats, never played the race card.
