I'm starting to wonder how badly this will all end for Bill Parcells. His brief tenure with the Cowboys is already taking misguided turns -- there's no way he can seriously consider Drew Bledsoe as the answer for what ailed a 6-10 team last season -- but there will certainly be more decisions that will leave us shaking our heads. Call it intuition. The unquestioned faith Parcells inspired in so many other franchises isn't in Dallas right now.
Aside from the emergence of Julius Jones and Jason Witten, what has gone right for the man in the last 12 months? The additions of Vinny Testaverde and Keyshawn Johnson didn't exactly ignite the offense last season. Parcells also passed on an opportunity to find a veteran cornerback in free agency, which didn't help when the Cowboys were defending the pass. More recently, Parcells has given no indication he's interested in giving young quarterback Drew Henson a shot at valuable experience. Now Bledsoe is a possibility to join the team, a move owner Jerry Jones reportedly doesn't support.
