In today's Newsday:

Bill Parcells has been a de facto adviser for the Jets in the past year, supplying answers and guidance to both general manager Mike Tannenbaum and coach Eric Mangini throughout their first season at the helm. Now that Parcells has retired as the coach of the Cowboys, though, his role with the Jets could become more formal.

The man who coached the team from 1997-99 and was the general manager in 2000 could soon return as a consultant, a move that would be welcomed by the Jets, according to a team source.

"There have been no conversations," the person said, "but you always want to leave the door open."

Parcells as adviser? - Newsday.com
Personally, I don't think this would be a good idea. That's all Mangini would need is Parcells in the wings. Been there, done that, with Bill. Let him go enjoy his retirement

i totally agree Pundit

Mangini doesnt need the extra added pressure of Parcells second guessing everything he does

No thanks. We already have a fantastic head coach and great assistants. Let's not screw up this winning chemistry the Jets have. All do respect to Bill Parcells and the 1998 Jets season but Parcells really didn't live up to expectations with the Cowboys and I think football Xs and Os are passing him by. Let him retire with his 2 Superbowl rings and enjoy being a football legend.

No, I'd rather not.

Parcells gave us enough trouble in the past.

I like Giants Co-Owner, John Mara's comment when asked whether they were thinking about bringing Bill Parcells back..."No!"

Hopefully the Jets are thinking the same.
