Twitter: Parsons’ instincts vs. Jaylon’s lack

[J12B]

I think it's fair to say Micah's the better LB near the line of scrimmage but 10 yards downfield Jaylon's better.

Lol

I can't think of many great defenses that didn't have a stud LB. Need to have atleast 1 on the line, middle of the d, and then in the secondary.

Gregory, Parsons, Diggs.

Dudes a LB, let him continue to grow and develop there.

 

[BoysfanfromCanada]

He's already 3X the player Jaylon was in his best season.

Have you tried the STIHL 500i? Touch the throttle, and it rips, without hesitation! And yeah, Parsons is a 'feller' of men.

I have not tried one of those yet. I've got a couple of Huskys. One of which is an older 351 that's been tweaked a bit and I picked up a 565 with that new fangled auto-tune, that is still stock. So far I haven't felt the need to mess with the 565.

Yesterday was the best play from the MLB position since 2018 vs. the Saints.

This has been the key to the turnaround of this defense. Similar athletes. But Parsons stops plays before they start because of his instincts. Jaylon was so lost out there and only made tackles 5-10 yards down the field. Kudos to the front office for not sticking with the sunk cost of Jaylon and passing on a generational talent in Parsons. (Also got a little lucky that neither Surtain nor Horn fell).

Comparing Parsons to Jaylon is low-hanging fruit. Jaylon was let go mid-season due to his inferior performance.

Jaylon is like a strong but poorly tuned chainsaw. Slow off the throttle but will spin up eventually.

Parsons is that ported and polished saw that is tuned perfectly and ripping at max rpms at the first squeeze of the trigger.

Were you cutting firewood this weekend?

I very wrongly saw a lot of Jaylon's "Hero Ball" in Parsons in college.

VERY wrongly.

Parsons won me when I saw he plays chess. He's got a lot more between his ears than Jaylon does and in the end that's the most important thing.

Jaylon is actually even better on the sideline and I think that is where GB has also started utilizing him

That's true. While Jaylon's already congratulating whoever made the tackle, Parsons is still laying on top of the QB.

The funny thing is people just couldn’t wait to get rid of Smith but then still can’t stop talking about him. LOL.

 

[CyberB0b]

They aren’t similar athletes. Parsons is a total freak. Jaylon was never right after the injury.

Totally different players though. Jaylon couldn’t shed a block to save his life.

Yeah, I don't get it. I mean, the Cowboys have had bigger busts. Taco and Hill come to mind as worse. He's gone and he's probably going to be out of the league in not too long as the Packers don't seem to be able to use him in a weak LB Corps. So...it is what it is.

 

[ItzKelz]

Parson's is like a young Neo....still trying the figure out his powers but clearly he is still the one!

You know it.

Pretty soon I'll be using shovel/snow blower analogies.

I might get a rake/leaf blower one in before that, though.

The 85 bears with singletary, Wilber Marshall, and Otis Wilson...my goodness!

Lawrence Taylor, harry Carson, Carl banks...my goodness!

11 seeks out punishment, 54/9 ran away from it.
