Whatever happened with the Micah parsons not getting holding calls thing

[MarionBarberThe4th]

Without turning it into a whining about officials discussion or whatever there were some wild stats about Micah not getting basically any holding calls. I did hear that tj watt got similarly weird treatment. But it felt liek the guy should’ve got at least one per game right

The most fickle of fickle fan bases!

He got a holding call, and the narrative was no more.

He's a fan, so at least he's including himself. Lol

 

[JoeKing]

I can tell you exactly what happened to that… the off season. It will start right back up once the season gets started.

Nobody got screwed as bad as Micah, not even Watt. Nothing was ever done about it so expect it to continue.

And it wasn't just Micah. Dallas has been historically getting screwed on calls. I did the research and Dallas and Detroit are referee dogs who get the most calls against, and the least calls for over the last 24 years.

The usual suspects are ref darlings as the calls for and against the Steelers and Packers are far, FAR more favorable in that time span.

Yea. He gets held far more than any player (maybe Garrett is kind of close, but we all know he’ll get 3 next Sunday) and that will continue.

Maybe Zimmer screaming at officials will
help.

It’s more of a league wide issue than a parsons issue. Refs didn’t call holding pretty routinely and will probably continue to do so as edge rushers have gotten so good and they want to protect QBs.

Quinn wasnt really helping his cause by lining him up in the same spot

Every single time, making it easy for teams to game plan against us!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Coogiguy03]

Coog Theory: He's a dominant force like Shaq was in the NBA in which refs don't know how to officiate against him is all I can think of!

Why was this thread created right now?

We have like ONE more week before the whining babies start their daily breath-holding temper tantrum crying-fests about THE REFS, which won't stop until we get our annual spanking in the wild card round.

Could you not have let us just enjoy this one last week before we start drowning in tears?

I hate blaming refs. It's such a cop out, no accountability way of looking at reality. And we all know Eagles fans are way worse at it. Blame the refs to deflect from their own suckiness

He got two in the GB game.

He proceeded to still do absolutely nothing.

Nah reality is holdings are simply not called nearly as often as people think it is. On average teams averaged 1 offensive holding call per game last year, it just seemed like more than that because the Cowboys were at the top of the league in holding calls against them. Most of these calls tend to happen on run plays as well.

will probably continue to do so as edge rushers have gotten so good and they want to protect QBs.

They have to keep the offense at an advantage (lol). But seriously, I think he may see a few more calls go his way this season. These types of penalties are so subjective. I mean they can call a penalty in the trenches on every single play.

He did his annual undersized DE fizzle out all the way to the Playoffs. Didn’t matter anymore.

He's been allergic to December and January so far.

Jerry will reward that production by making him the highest paid non-qb
