More quotes by Bill Parcells
I've been around enough to know what it takes to get a team to reach its potential, and I want players who want to reach their potential.
Bill Parcells
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.
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.
Bill Parcells
Success is never final, but failure can be.
Bill Parcells
Accept false steps as opportunities to learn. It's one thing to hate failure, it's another to fear it.
Bill Parcells
All the backs in the history of this game are the same when there isn't any hole to run through.
Bill Parcells
Never let the world define you as less than Great.
Bill Parcells
Creatures of similar plumages habitually congregate in places of closest proximity.
Bill Parcells
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.
Bill Parcells
You ask yourself, 'What do you want your legacy to be?' I'm content at this point to say, 'Those who follow me.' Romeo Crennel, Bill Belichick, Sean Payton, to name a few. I think I've got a pretty good group, so far.
Bill Parcells
You get too old to lose. When you were a young guy, you bounced back from losses.
Bill Parcells
It's a lot easier to lose than it is to win. It's easier, but it's not more comfortable.
Bill Parcells
You can't dream up confidence. Confidence is born of demonstrated ability.
Bill Parcells
Don't tell me about the pain. Show me the baby.
Bill Parcells
I don't have to make examples out of players to establish my own place. I don't feel like I have to.
Bill Parcells
You can easily separate 'team guys' from 'me guys' by how they accept coaching. The guys that accept it are about winning
Bill Parcells
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.
Bill Parcells
When I was coaching with the Patriots, the players pulled a practical joke and I said, 'Do you think I'm Charlie the Tuna, like a sucker?' After that, they called me Tuna.
Bill Parcells
When Super Bowl time comes around, I get jealous.
Bill Parcells
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.
