Micah: I get the fan frustration but I don't think there's anyone more frustrated than me

[cowboys5xsbs]

Cowboys DE/LB Micah Parsons: “To have back to back embarrassing losses at home, I get the fan frustration but I don’t think there’s anyone more frustrated than me. I’m a competitor. I feel like I’m a warrior. I battle like everyone else battles, but at the end of the day, it’s all about wanting it more. To me, not having everyone wanting it as bad as you do, that kinda hurts the most. If you’re willing to take a beating like that, that says a lot.”

Tougher to move on after a loss like that?

“I think I’ll find it tougher if people don’t step up. … To me, it’s like a prove it weekend. I’m not putting anything on any of my teammates. I’m saying myself included. I need to step up. We all need to step up. It would hurt me more if we all didn’t step up and we all played down to that standard again. Because that just tells me we’re not moving in the direction we should be moving.”

a warrior that has to be told that a battle is personal.

I wish Micah battles on the field like he does in his mind. Wish I could send him game film of Ray Lewis. Now that was a Lion....

 

[JohnnyTheFox]

Wonder if he will expand upon this in his podcast

Dear Micah: you weren’t even born when a lot of us were enjoying the last time this team actually lived up to the standard of excellence this franchise is known for.

You think you are “more frustrated” than the fanbase because of these last two embarrassing home Ls?!

My man— try 28 + years and counting of watching this team snatch defeat from victory and replace a legendary HOF history with a clown show circus.

Idiot contradicts himself from line to line. Are you calling out from teammates for not wanting it like you do, Parsons? If so, who? You can't put that out there and then try to have it both ways with weasel words.

People think if he played linebacker he'd look like that

Go watch the game highlights and key on 11. He was terrible and his effort sucked.

stems from the top, my friend....why would anybody on this team step up to sacrifice when ownership could care less about winning?

Pipe down. We've not won anything in your lifetime.

You grew up in Pennsylvania an Eagles fan.

You don't understand the fan frustration and whatever your personal frustration is it doesn't match.

He took the Clear Eye View of the field on Sunday....almost on every play he'd overrun tackles along with Diggs

preach

just another Cowboy talking the talk, but not walking the walk.

If he played that style, he'd be sapped by December......oh, wait

man I did *not* expect the "clear eye view" to make me laugh as hard as it did lol

 

[Retro88]

Another thread about a player being asked a question and giving an honest answer only for this forum to break their necks to find something to be upset about.

 

[thunderpimp91]

Probably one of the better answers he or most Cowboy players have given to the media in recent months. Way better than "get over it" from the Packer game

 

[ShortRound]

Warrior or Assasin, which is it?

 

[75boyz]

Jerry, Stephen, McFraud, Dak and Micah. Whenever any one of them speaks it's as if a politician making empty promises he won't keep.

Toeing that company line with cliches and innuendo that all sounds good but is never actually accomplished.

Cowboys!
