Parsons trade - A select few voices were called upon, none spoke against the idea

[HungryLion]

Parsons is a selfish ‘me first’ guy who isn’t a leader
You can’t pay that guy that much money

Meanwhile the cowboys owner/GM is the ultimate selfish me first guy

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

I didn't hear that I'm glad you posted

Yeah it’s been ramblings.

 

[Shannon1]

His poor back....

I thought his back was hurt hmm

 

[Swanny]

More lame excuses for the GM not getting the deal done, blame the player, blame the agent, etc. His job as GM is make the team better by signing the top players.

He messed around all offseason then randomly decided to trade him. No thought given to this. Worst GM in sports.

Worst GM in Sports i do agree with that. However this trade is not an example of him being a bad GM. I know i would be pretty darn upset today if he signed Parsons to a 47 million dollar a year contract. That is just bonkers. I hate Jerry as a GM but I applaud him for this move.

 

[HungryLion]

A compelling stat. Cowboys had best pass rush with Parsons. Without him the worst .

Our defense without a pass rush and ability to stop the run could be atrocious.

Not could be. It will be.

 

[Cmac]

He offered what he was willing to pay. The number was a substantial amount. The player/agent wanted more. Jerry said "no, play out your contract and we can revisit later". Micah threw a fit, isolated himself from his teammates while at practice, and acted like a fool on live TV representing his teammates. I've never shied away from blaming Jerry, but the forced trade is all on Micah. Best of luck to him, but I think we just dodged a bullet.

Micah's optics were terrible.....in comparison to Cee Dee & Dak, who had to precede him in negotiation BS. Not a good look Micah, at all.

 

[Mr_437]

At least Dak shows up to play all year long. Unlike Micah who shows up just for September - Early November, only to see the player not show up the rest of the season.

Dak is injury prone and scared vs good teams. Dak folds in the Playoffs and stifles the Offense, there is no "at least". He said "We suck" on camera while sitting on the sideline after he stunk up the field, yeah, a real stand up guy. Micah came back and left it on the field trying to drag that sorry defense and team Dak left for dead to the Playoffs.

[Mr_437]

Greedy DE did not get paid. 1 is a leader, when is a me first guy.

Dak is trash. A leader is fearless or at least has bravery when scared. Dak just talks tough and then folds, Dude can't lead ants to a picnic.

Micah did get paid.

 

[Bagman]

Exactly…. Or also telling that JJ probably lied about it the whole time

When are we going to talk about all of Micah's lies. When ?

 

[Echospacing]

my guess is clark underwhelms and gets injured and the team goes sub .500 getting swept by Wash, Philly. But, we do get 4 1st round picks over the next 2 years. Tank it and half those 1st rounders are pretty high. Sadly, we all think the Jones' will screw that up somehow.

Man, shut up with the lies. Go follow Micah and root for the damn Packers already. Why are you even a Cowboys fan at this point? What I stated were facts. You simply can't handle the truth. Since you're going to continue being miserable and spreading more lies, man up and get out of Dodge. Go follow your hero the liar to Wisconsin.

By the way, ... here is the proof that I am 100% correct while you are flat out lying...

Cowboys' Micah Parsons reflects on playoff loss vs. Packers: 'Completely embarrassing, unacceptable'​

The Dallas Cowboys have spoken in hyperbole when bringing up their season-ending 48-32 NFC Super Wild Card Weekend home loss as the conference's two seed against the seventh-seeded Green Bay Packers, a game in which they trailed 27-0 and did not score until the final play of the first half.

Parsons earned his third All-Pro selection in as many seasons, his first Second Team nod after two First Team nominations, after leading the NFL in quarterback pressures (103), quarterback pressure rate (21.8%) and pass-rush win rate (35.3%). None of those things, to Parsons' point, showed up in their faceplant versus the Packers.

Perhaps one reason why arguably the most ferocious pass-rusher in the NFL couldn't bare to speak about the defeat until now is because of his role in Green Bay first-time starting quarterback Jordan Love throwing for 272 passing yards and three touchdowns on 16 for 21 passing. Love's 157.2 passer rating is the new single-game Packers postseason record.

Parsons could only get near Love once in what was statistically the worst game of his three-season, three-time All-Pro career. He registered one quarterback pressure and one quarterback hit on 19 pass rushes, Parsons' lowest pressure rate in a game of his career, according to the NFL's Next Gen Stats. His only pressure came when he was unblocked, and Packers right tackle Zach Tom shut him out with no pressures in their nine matchups. Parsons may have been speaking about not being vocal following the loss when he said "I disappeared completely," but that line also can be used to sum up how he played in that playoff game.

Yeah it's tough to decipher the truth through propaganda now, however the reports about Micha being a selfish player make a lot of sense. When we are getting blown up on run defense and hes refusing to play his assignments because he just wants to "make a play." It hurts us badly.

Like LVE told him when he was a rookie, you have to know your play and make the correct play.

This mentality is exactly why we'd have a game every 6 weeks or so where we'd get absolutely destroyed on run defense and then the next week be much improved. He led this team with hero ball.

Most fans can't tell the difference.

Where's the lie. Dak didn't say "We suck"? Dak isn't injury prone? Dak doesn't fold in the Playoffs? Where's the lie?

You was the one who was miserable last season when Dak was trash then got hurt, you disappeared. Now a new season is about to start you think everyone forgot and you can start talking your nonsense again. Fake Cowboys fan, you're a Dak fan and don't want to hear the truth.

It's ok, I'll be waiting to hear your next scapegoat for why a 10 year vet has never gotten the job done. Posted this article about Parsons just to deflect what I said about Dak, Clown. Talk about Dak's game vs GB then...pick 6, multiple 3 n outs, another pick setting GB up in Dallas territory. Dak sucked the life out the stadium and team. Dak had the ball on his hands, he could've made a difference, but he didn't and you want to blame Micah for that. Again, where the lie?

 

[EGTuna]

I don't have a problem with trading Parsons. I have BIG problem with the compensation they received in return. Jerry got fleeced. Again.

 

[Fla Cowpoke]

I literally don't have a problem with it at all. I understand why Jerry had doubts about whether he could live up to the contract. When you are paying someone that kind of money, they have to be a huge difference maker. Micah had not affected many games where the Cowboys were playing a team on their level or better than them. Sure, he helped when we were playing teams the Cowboys should beat, but show me where he was the difference in winning against a team like the 49ers, or Ravens, or Chiefs. It just wasn't there.

Jerry certainly lost out on getting better value in the trade. If this truly was something brewing since March, then they completely whiffed because they would have got several more picks added on to the package. And if he was thinking about trading him, why did he invite him over and start talking money with him? I don't believe the retcon that is going on.

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

Not could be. It will be.

Not sure how those splash plays helped so much. His run defense is about as bad as his pass rush is good.

I think I'd rather see us play even across the board. I think it's rather see us contain the runs.

We shall see.

Micah is not worth $47M. Good move by both sides.

At this point in time, he wasn't getting better value. Before the draft....yep. In the middle of the season when a big name on a playoff level team went down...maybe. A week before the season...not a chance.

Parsons was setting things up to be sitting due to his back "injury" all the while collecting his paycheck. Jerry had to make the deal now.

Itis his fault for not making the decision months ago, but at this point, he had few options and I think he took what the best offer was.

 

[CowboyFrog]

When Malik Hooker came out and said Micah needs to stop….people wrote it off but he was essentially the voice for some of those in that locker room.

very true i dont think Micah was a locker room favorite, i dont hink he was "A cancer" but i think most players saw him for who he was.. a very "Me first" player. Talented for sure but i dont think the locker room is moved much by this.
