Wed, 04 Apr 2012 10:35:05 -0700 The Minnesota Vikings contacted former NFL head coach Bill Parcells earlier this offseason about the possibility of running their football operations but have not had any contact with him recently.
Mon, 02 Apr 2012 06:13:19 -0700 Former NFL head coach Bill Parcells will likely take the New Orleans Saints' coaching job for the next nine months if owner Tom Benson offers it to him, and if the terms are right. If Parcells could have one year of pressing the buttons with a Super Bowl contender, subbing in for a good friend in head coach Sean Payton, he thinks there are too many advantages to that to turn down.
Thu, 29 Mar 2012 05:13:30 -0700 Former NFL head coach Bill Parcells said New Orleans Saints suspended head coach Sean Payton will not be the one who hires an interim head coach for the 2012 season. Rather, it will be general manager Mickey Loomis and owner Tom Benson. "Sean is not the one doing the hiring. That's up to Mickey Loomis and (Saints owner) Tom Benson," Parcells said. "I'm just getting to know Loomis, which is one reason we played golf yesterday. I mean, we've obviously had discussions about doing this but there are still too many hypotheticals to draw a conclusion right now."
Thu, 29 Mar 2012 04:52:18 -0700 Former NFL head coach Bill Parcells said he would be a hypocrite if he did not at least consider the possibility of serving as interim head coach of the New Orleans Saints for the 2012 season. "If the opportunity presents itself, I'll think it over and clearly I'm in some phase of the process without knowing whether it's going to become a reality," Parcells said. "Sean's become a dear, dear friend. I'm trying to be a friend ... If he needs me and the owner and GM feel the same way, then I'd be a hypocrite if I didn't consider it."
Wed, 28 Mar 2012 12:36:07 -0700 The New Orleans Saints said no decision has been made on an interim head coach after a meeting Tuesday, March 27, with Bill Parcells. Head coach Sean Payton has made it clear he is hoping Parcells can help New Orleans move forward.

Mon, 26 Mar 2012 11:36:52 -0700 Updating previous reports, former NFL head coach Bill Parcells said he has spoken with New Orleans Saints head coach Sean Payton about the team's head coaching position but has not been contacted by the team about the possibility of becoming an interim head coach.

Mon, 26 Mar 2012 09:53:11 -0700 New Orleans Saints suspended head coach Sean Payton has broached the idea of Bill Parcells becoming the interim head coach during Payton's suspension for the 2012 season, according to several league sources. Payton and Parcells have spoken numerous times, sources said, since NFL commissioner Roger Goodell announced that Payton was being suspended for the year because the league found that the team had engaged in a bounty program that included incentives to injure opposing players. It is uncertain whether Payton has discussed Parcells' candidacy as an interim head coach with Saints owner Tom Benson or general manager Mickey Loomis, who was handed an eight-game suspension. Payton was unavailable for comment and Parcells did not return phone calls Monday, March 26.

Wed, 12 Oct 2011 07:53:14 -0700 Former New York Jets head coach Bill Parcells does not believe that QB Mark Sanchez is quite ready to carry the load to help dig the team out of their three-game losing streak. "He's a developing player, just like all young quarterbacks, and there's going to be some good and some not-so-good," Parcells said. "Before you can drive a Ford, you have to be able to drive a Cadillac. If they get everything good around him, I think it will go well. Right now, I don't think he can take the team completely on his shoulders."
Tue, 12 Apr 2011 13:21:07 -0700 Former Miami Dolphins team official Bill Parcells said he regrets drafting OT Jake Long over Atlanta Falcons QB Matt Ryan with the first overall pick in 2008, according to NFL.com.

"Get me back out there," Parcells says near the end of the NFL Films-produced documentary. "I can do this one more time. That's how I feel."

Tue, 19 Oct 2010 07:54:38 -0700 Miami Dolphins consultant Bill Parcells continues to work in that role for the team; however, he is no longer taking part in the day-to-day decisions and activities of the team, according to league sources, reports ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Mon, 22 Mar 2010 19:02:07 -0700 Tim Graham, of ESPN.com, reports Miami Dolphins owner Stephen Ross said he does not get involved in even the biggest decisions about his cash with the organization. Ross said, "I'm putting my money with (vice president of football operations) Bill Parcells and our organization. Nobody bats 1.000. I just look at the bottom line and end results and where we are and what we're spending. The results are in the won-loss record." Ross added, "I don't try to micromanage him. You can't look at every dollar you spend. One thing I found out: Sports is different than business. From a businessman, when it comes to what you do for paying players, you have to have a little different discipline than you'd otherwise have."
Fri, 19 Feb 2010 05:25:00 -0800 Todd Archer, of The Dallas Morning News, speculates the Miami Dolphins will not try to sign Dallas Cowboys WR Miles Austin this offseason.

Tue, 30 Jun 2009 08:22:04 -0700 Tim Graham, of ESPN.com, reports former NFL head coach Dennis Green said during a radio interview that he believes the Miami Dolphins will eventually sign free-agent QB Michael Vick (Falcons). "I have a hard time believing that Michael Vick is not going to wind up with Bill Parcells, simply because he has that creativeness that says that no matter what it takes, he's going to find a way to get Michael Vick," Green said. "Now, whether it means convincing the commissioner or whatever it takes, Michael Vick is probably going to wind up at Miami because of the fact that Bill Parcells is Bill Parcells."
Tue, 19 May 2009 15:14:10 -0700 Steven Wine, of The Associated Press, reports Miami Dolphins DE Jason Taylor said there are no problems between him and executive vice president of football operations Bill Parcells.
