I like linebackers. I collect 'em. You can't have too many good ones.
Bill Parcells
Image
In the end, I've found, people like the direct approach. It's much more valuable to them to have a leader who's absolutely clear and open than to have one who soft-soaps or talks in circles.
Bill Parcells
Image
I think confrontation is healthy, because it clears the air very quickly.

If you got anything to you at all as an athlete and a competitor, you don't care what the circumstances are. You still got competition.

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

I just try to do the best job I possibly can - put the blinders on, go to work and be the best you can possibly be. Once you have done everything that you possibly can - you've put forth your greatest effort - then I can live with whatever's next.

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.

Don't tell me about the pain. Show me the baby.
Bill Parcells

Some guys are just very, very interested in their sport and their predecessors. I know I was a guy like that when I was a young coach. I wanted to know about George Halas, I wanted to know about Jim Lee Howell, guys you don't even know. I wanted to know what they were like. So I read whatever I could get my hands on.

I'm a little superstitious.
Bill Parcells
Image
You can't dream up confidence. Confidence is born of demonstrated ability.
Bill Parcells
Image
Accept false steps as opportunities to learn. It's one thing to hate failure, it's another to fear it.
Bill Parcells
Image
All the backs in the history of this game are the same when there isn't any hole to run through.
Bill Parcells
Image
You can easily separate 'team guys' from 'me guys' by how they accept coaching. The guys that accept it are about winning
Bill Parcells
Image
I don't look at a problem and put variables in there that don't affect it.
Bill Parcells
Image
My expectations are greater than the average fan's but, I'm more realistic than the top prognosticators.
Bill Parcells
Image
I think there are a lot of good people, a lot of good football guys in the NFL.
Bill Parcells
Image
Losers assemble in small groups & complain, winners assemble as a team & find ways to win.
Bill Parcells
Image
I only want my team to play to its potential, as I perceive it to be. I really don't have any regard for anyone else's perception.
