It's a lot easier to lose than it is to win. It's easier, but it's not more comfortable.

If the players don't trust the coach, it is a problem, and vice versa.

All you have to do is play better than the other guy and things go well. If you don't play better than the other players then somebody takes your place. Now a lot of guys, in this day and time with the transient nature of the sport, as soon as the competition gets too good, they want out.

Anybody who watched football last year knows they're good. But that represents a very good opportunity for us. It really does. I think somehow, if we're able to pull that off, I think it will go a long way for our confidence. I look at it as a great opportunity, and hopefully we'll be at our best when we get there.

All the backs in the history of this game are the same when there isn't any hole to run through.
Bill Parcells
Image
Something goes wrong, I yell at them -'Fix it'- whether it's their fault or not. You can only really yell at the players you trust.
Bill Parcells

Confidence is only born out of one thing ­ demonstrated ability. It is not born of anything else. You cannot dream up confidence. You cannot fabricate it. You cannot wish it. You have to accomplish it.

My expectations are greater than the average fan's but, I'm more realistic than the top prognosticators.
Bill Parcells
Image
I think confrontation is healthy, because it clears the air very quickly.
Bill Parcells
Image
I love the game. I think it's a great game because you find out a lot about yourself. You test your mettle every week. There's no grey area, there's instant gratification and there are no quarterly reports. We're not just doing a little bit better. You know every Sunday what happened.
