Soccer season formally wrapped up a few weeks in the past within the Dallas/Ft. Value area of Texas after the Dallas Cowboys received embarrassed by the Inexperienced Bay Packers, 38-32. Outspoken All-Professional linebacker Micah Parsons took a while to mirror on the loss after which got here out from his slumber, firing photographs at Dallas’ teaching workers and Jerry Jones’ “all-in” feedback.
“Completely embarrassing and unacceptable.” – Micah Parsons
“They’re talking about we’re going all-in this year and that’s what I would hope for. I hope that we go all-in and I hope we go out and get the players we’re missing because we didn’t do that this year,” Parsons said. “I hope that we challenge ourselves, become better, and become greater for us.”
Nothing Parsons mentioned there was inaccurate or unfaithful. He actually hit the nail on the pinnacle and it’s about time somebody inside that group identified these items publicly. Apart from Jones, who speaks usually, however doesn’t at all times comply with via. We’ve heard the all-in “promise” earlier than. Hopefully, for Cowboys trustworthy, it may be fulfilled.
The primary downside with Jones’ all-in declare is that they determined to stay with Mike McCarthy as head coach then rotated and misplaced their defensive Coordinator, Dan Quinn, to division rival Washington. Parsons can’t be happy about that and the truth that it looks like they’re simply going to run it again once more.
Parsons spoke of bringing within the gamers they’ve been lacking, however we’ve seen Jones miss out up to now, (see gamers who expressed curiosity in taking part in in Huge D like Von Miller not too way back.) Dallas wants one other energy working again within the backfield. Derrick Henry, a former 2,000-yard dashing energy again must be obtainable. Let’s see if Jones does what he claims as soon as once more and really goes all-in.
“Guys like Skip [Bayless] who talk so crazy out in the media just because they can.” – Micah Parsons
Parsons additionally went at everybody’s favourite sports activities media punching bag, Skip Bayless. Whereas throwing shade at Bayless, Parsons additionally gave extra perception on why his section that was scheduled for Tuesdays in the Fall of 2022 on Undisputed with Bayless after which co-host, Shannon Sharpe, by no means occurred. Bayless had been hyping Parsons’ debut on the present in September of ’22 then it by no means occurred. We’d by no means actually heard the total story till now.
Somebody most likely received in Parsons’ ear and urged it may not be the wisest transfer to accomplice with Bayless given his historical past. To not say that it couldn’t have labored and that it couldn’t have been dealt with higher, however Parsons seemingly made the proper selection. So, go forward and add him to the checklist of present and former professional athletes who haven’t any love for Bayless.
With that mentioned, it’s time for Parsons to step up much more and turn out to be that locker room/crew chief, especially with Quinn leaving for Washington. It’ll be extra than simply about what he does on the sector transferring ahead. This Cowboys locker room might be trying to Parsons for management greater than ever heading into his fourth yr within the NFL. Calling out everybody when wanted is nice, however we’re coming into a interval the place extra duty is prone to fall on his shoulders and with that additionally comes accountability.
