I've always believed that Parcells is great at turning around struggling teams, but not maintaining good ones. He sees an opportunity to overhaul a struggling team or one that is missing a few major components and has them in the playoffs in a year or two. Then he "retires" to await another project. His is the quick-fix and gone. Gibbs changed the culture and mindset of Snyder and the team.
