Bill Parcell To Accept Saints Head Coaching Job If Offered

[Ja Rhule]

Legendary coach Bill Parcells confirmed that he's interested in joining the Saints organization in light of coach Sean Payton's one-year suspension.

"I had plenty of opportunities to do things with different teams, and I've turned them all down," Parcells said. "But this one is special. This guy is like family to me. And if I could help him, I would." While both Payton and Parcells maintain that no job offer has been made, the club may simply be biding time to come up with a candidate to circumvent the Rooney Rule.

Good. Move is about Payton's job security going forward. Not a good for the 2012 Saints

....which is good for us. Parcells will rock a ship that should of been on auto-pilot

just another circus.

Maybe parcells will get hit by a sideline play like payton did last year. thatd be pretty funny, old man parcells would get hurt way worse than payton did.

I guess i'm one of the very few who thinks this is a good move for the Saints. Parcells is respected by the owners, coaches and players across the NFL. Also, who exactly were the Saints to promote? Spags? He has his hands full with implementing his system and figuring out who will be allowed the play. Carmichael Jr? Without Payton over his shoulder he will need to concentrate on calling the plays on offense. I really think its a good move. Saints are in a tight fix. They are damned if they do, damned if they don't right? Parcells has been thru the wars before, he knows how to handle a circus. Which is something the younger coaches could get caught up in.

Is it the fact that they hired an outsider or just Parcells that many of you don't like.

OC or DC.

Payton wanted his suspended Lb coach to be the guy......if they excelled without Payton the guy doesn't have the resume that you could wash your hands of Payton. If the OC or DC stepped in and had success........why do you need to bring back a liar and guy the league hates? Payton wanted a guy in place that regardless of the Saints success that the owner would have to have him back.

Parcells beats to his own drum.....and he will alter things? Parcells is great at what he does.....what he does isn't needed in NO

Yeah it was a smart move by Payton but it is also a smart move by the Saints Org. Look, they're not going to fire Payton next year regardless of wins or loses. Who ever is the head man this year, Payton will be back. You can't just promote the DC (Spags)he's kind of an outsider as well + he was terrible as the Rams coach. Carmichael the (OC) is too inexperienced to be the head man, especially in this situation. You guys are acting like Parcells will reform the offense and bench Jimmy Graham lol.

Never put anything past parcells

[Harris Aballah]

Maybe he can get some of his friends at the aarp to fill the other vacancies in their coaching staff. Bob Dole would make a great GM. Or they could stop trying to weasel thier way out of this punishment and save those FEMA dollars for something useful? Ya do the crime, ya do the time!
