Quote:  When considering where those 3 QBs were at that point of their NFL careers  (  especially the two long time veterans ) and that the Cowboys were 5-11 the previous 3 seasons before Bill Parcells came to Dallas to coach,  it's a credit to him and his staff they won as much as they did.   

 

  One major reason why I think it would make a great amount of sense for the Jaguars to bring back Tom Coughlin as HC Is I think he can change the culture of the franchise much like Parcells did with the Patriots,  Jets,  and Cowboys.   Even if TC only coaches 3 seasons,   the Jaguars should be in a much better place moving forward.  

Though I have misgivings about TCs age, I think he would be an excellent hire here on any number of levels.  He would instill discipline here.  He should fix the offense, making the line a better pass blocking unit and getting the most out of a power back like Ivory.  I think his passing game would really utilize AR15, Hurns, and Lee.  His defensive philosophy would fit most of our personnel.

 

But getting back to the Parcells coaching tree, I'm wondering if Parcell's greatest ability is identifying good coaches, because in addition to that staff, he has had coaching staffs with Coughlin, Belichick and Romeo Crennel under him as well.

 

In fact, I can recall an ESPN 30 for 30 that chronicled the 1995 Cleveland Browns.  On staff and in the FO, they had Belicheck, Pioli, Nick Saban, Ozzie Newsome, Eric Mangini, and Jim Schwartz.

 

I can only hope that we can accumulate that level of quality coaching and front office staff here.
