When Tony Romo became his starting QB, Parcells should have had someone else take over the job of holding for placekicks. Romo was on the field moving the team into field goal range instead of being on the sideline taking practice snaps. If you remember the game at all, you will see the Seahawks' placekicking team practice feverishly at various key times. I doubt that any other first string NFL QB was performing the holding function, and certainly none during the 2006 playoffs. Man up, Bill and take part of the responsibility and criticism!
