What do you guys think about bringing Parcells in as an advisory/motivational role?

The real-world problem with Tuna or Chuckie is $$$, which is why I think it's not happening and didn't happen already. I am sure there is a hypothetical number amount in his mind, for which Parcells (or Chuckie) would decide to come back to head coaching and do it, but that number is probably not realistic or not worth doing for just an interim.

No. He couldn't motivate a defense in Dallas that, for what it's worth, had a better line up that what we are working with. He accomplished a SB with a great Giants team. He hasn't put a great product on the field since. Focus needs to be put on D and O line play. Kromer should be working his ass off trying to figure out why his line can't protect Drew.

In the case of a motivational roll.. It requires authority, the authority a coach has.

Paying them to give pregame speeches is a waste of $, and if they are not on the field in the players faces and ears, it doesn't make it past the first series.

You mean bring somebody in as a kind of Consultant/Advisor? That seems like a good idea to me, even though the season is already more than two weeks old.

The problem would be finding somebody who is willing and able to be a successful Advisor. I doubt that a Gruden or a Parcells would be willing to take such a position, because, they don't need the money, and, Why take the risk of being a part of a situation that could turn into a very unsuccessful season?

I think it Parcells truley wanted to be here and help out he would of been here since day one. Sean Payton asked... but tbh I don't think the Tuna really had any intentions of leaving retirement.

He just didn't know how to publicly say "hell no"
