Default OT: Bill Parcells - The $300 Million Dollar Man

Forbes Names Parcells "$300 Million Man" - cbs4.com

Kind of related to the other thread when talking about Team Revenue but most impressive is the fact that when Parcells becomes a part of your organization your revenue increases rather rapidly - 4 out of the top 5 teams rated by Forbes had Parcells as a member of that team in the past and present (Miami) and even Miami at 18 as well so its 5 out of 18 - That shows you what an influence the Tuna has been to the NFL and how much he means to an organizations success and making them money.

Not quite sure I would give Parcells credit for that...

Parcells drafted key players for those SB teams that just happened to be years later,nevertheless he picked them - Bruschi,Law,Milloy,Brown,McGinest ect: - He certainly deserves the credit for getting those guys on board in the first place.

He deserves credit for drafting those guys, of course. But for the three Super Bowls we won, I'd give the credit to Brady and Belichick.

Gotta give the guy credit. Parcells has a personal brand that he has built which is his methodology in building football programs = winning. Winning leads to a increase in fan base, which improves the team's brand which generates revenue.

He comes in, the team has success which leads to additional ticket, licencing, concessionn and sponsorship revenue- which all increase the value of the franchise.

If I was Ford I would offer Parcells the skys the limit when he leaves the Dolphins which you know wont be long,he never stays

The Lions need a guy like him Badly after the horror they went through with Millen.

He deserves credit, but not for his time in Dallas.

There really hasn't been any spectacular on-field success for the Cowboys, so in those terms nobody deserves credit. In terms of financial success, which is what the article was using for its benchmark, the 'boys were rich before and they're rich now, Parcells didn't make a difference.

Credit for Troy Brown is a stretch. An 8th round pick he cut and picked up later...
