Yes, this is what I saw as well. At first, Gibbs motioned as if a wave would be fine, but then, another replay showed them with a brief handshake and that was it.

I saw absolutely no disrespect on Parcells' part. He an old-school guy, and takes losses very seriously. If any of us expected him to kneel in front of Gibbs and kiss his feet, or share a laugh and yuck it up with him, that's not going to happen. He was beaten, he acknowledged his opponent after the game, and left the field.

That's exactly what we always say our players should do after a loss.
