Reliving the Kraft/Parcells rupture was painful.
Now don’t get wrong — in a world where Parcells stays, B.B. undoubtedly gets a HC gig someplace else and the last 18 seasons do not happen. Parcells would probably have won rings, but we would not have 5 of them in all likelihood or every-other-year SB appearances. But that’s saying we were saved by something akin to divine intervention — the Jets weirdness
Absent that intervention, the rupture would have been catastrophic for us, sad, tragic and avoidable. Kraft and Parcells admitted they both fucked up and dearly wished they had handled it different. It was ego driven bullshit, much like the Jerry Jones/Jimmy Johnson rupture, which WAS catastrophic.
I hope the lessons of this were deeply burned into Jonathan Kraft.
