    He's now considering an offer from Miami.

    That's according to ESPNEWS. It's in their BREAKING NEWS bar.

    "Not So Fast: No Deal For Parcells

    Bill Parcells and the Atlanta Falcons had a deal in principle Tuesday night. By Wednesday afternoon, it was gone. The team said Wednesday that Parcells "would not be signing a contract with us" and that Parcells is "considering a revised offer from the Miami Dolphins."""

    http://espn.com

    Wow, sounds like this may happen after all!

    Seems like TUNA was using Atlanta to get more power / money from Wayne...

    Seems to have worked.. Lets hope it pays off!

    The way some of the fans and players continue to support Michael Vick I'd say run, don't walk from Atlanta.

    Nope they stated they will not be signing an offer with Atlanta, so they leaves Miami pretty much the only offer out there now...

    Man I wonder right now what Cam and Randy are doing? I would be ****ting in my pant's as bill would require alot of Power in the Organazation, so Randy my guess is on the outs... Cam Might get a repreve.

    But it would be nice to have a FOOTBALL guy in charge finally!

    This would be great! As a GM I'm not as sold, but as a VP he'd be great! He could help scout for players and coaches!

    They were just talking about this on Mike and Mike in the morning.

    OH man it might not even be the Dolphins, they are now talking about maybe the GIANTS would bring him in to run the show there. Lets keep our fingers crossed BIG TUNA IN SOUTH BEACH sounds nice, but he has New York Roots..

    He also said this AM that he was taking the Job in Atlanta that there were no deal breakers left to discuss.

    Wayne must have just opened the vaults and blew him away..

    I just don't like this at all... There is no hope for progression next year if the deal goes through... It will take another 2 years before this team is decent and I believe that we could be there alot sooner without him... And to be bold about it, if Parcells is hired as the GM... I don't see us in the playoffs til 2010 at the earliest...

    This is just BAD NEWS guys!!!!

    If bill is hired, i think we say bye to cam and in comes maurice carthon. carthon was assistant head coach to bill in his early days and wouldnt be suprised to see him come in...

    ^ that was len pasquarelli's thoughts on if bill gets hired somewhere. I threw in the " I think we say bye to cam"

    According to reports, Bill Parcells will not be the GM. He will oversee the football operations and will hire a GM, but he will not be the GM himself. Chris Mortensen said that Bill Parcells does not want to be a GM or a HC. He just wants to oversee the football operations.

    Basically, it seems to be a situation where Bill Parcells will set up the structure of the scouting department and hire a general manager to do the general manager work within the organization. The offer will probably give Bill Parcells the authority to hire and fire the head coach as well.

    that is exactly what this franchise has needed for years.

    while he has always had good intentions, huizenga has little to no knowledge of the NFL

    parcells would have us competitive in a year or two.

    Right KB21 I think bill will have some help in the draft as well. If hired I think Randy is gone, but wayne may have said listen you can clean house but keep cam for another year.. Which I would hate you give him total control or Zero control.

    I'm surprised the Falcons went with him 1st....what ever team takes him as a head coach better have the replacement ready in a few years....unless the team he is coaching tanks his 1st year, then Bye bye :wave:

    I posted the ' Parcells will " PROBABLY " join Falcons ' thread this morning.
    WOW! He never did say YES just this:

    " I think I probably will do it," Parcells said. "The job description is to be the football operations overseer. We still have a little work to do, but I don't think it's anything major. I don't expect any real deal-breaker. I don't think there will be any major hangups."

    IMO I'm thinking that maybe Parcells used the Falcons as leveredge to get the Dolphins to sweeten their deal because he wanted to really be here instead of Atlanta. Huizienga knew that if he were to sell the team faster that he would have to change the front office and hire Parcells as a " markie " name because of Parcells reputation and history of success.

    I think it's a good move to get Parcells though !

    tay0365 No one was looking at him as a COACH.. Thats why it would be a win for us.. I think as a GM or VP Bill would be THE BEST availalbe guy out there. Love or hate him he KNOWS football, he knows the roles, has credability and the balls to make the changes that are needed..

    If he comes to Miami it will make this off-season a success already and with him running things they will be contending in a few seasons.
