Message: [QUOTE="OXY-351, post: 2754807, member: 2107"] My take on this is that Parker wanted a 2 year deal, as a 2 year deal allows that extra buffer that you can "go out on your own terms" and retire a year early if you want. Same as Hodges did. If the Broncos were only willing to offer a 1 year deal, and then take him on a year to year proposition after that too, then at the end of each year, you can't go out on your own terms as if the club doesn't renew your contract, that's taking it out of your own hands. I figure Parker realised this, and being the man he is, decided he'd rather go out on his own terms now. Even if he was pushed by Bennett, I don't really have any issues with that. Maybe it was a year early, but I'd prefer a coach to make the hard short term decisions for the better long term decisions. If Parker retiring now means the Broncos get to keep the next Parker, then I see that as a good decision. [/QUOTE]
