Still a ton of talent at the edge position!

All I want is them to do the job and not play hero football. #1 priority is outside containment and force plays inside where there are more bodies
I think we got rid of the one player who could play hero ball. These others will need to stick to the scheme for us to succeed IMO.
 
Not doing this i'm saying Washington used two backups and got to a championship game we have one of their players back and I say we're deeper and I say we're better next It's funny how this works my opinion versus yours but the fact is Armstrong was a backup for years and then became a starter and Fowler was a role player that became a starter and they still made a championship game with a weak not so deep edge room that's the point they don't have the edge room we have..
.
NEXT
I'm sure Armstrong was not proven until he was and yes Houston had a better start to his career than Armstrong go look I don't matter if he's on the street no matter where he came from it matters what he can offer Unless you see that and you don't want to you're this upset parsons is gone and I'm telling you we're OK...

He took a dude that had six sacks and made him a starter you took a role player in Fowler and made him a starter There were your bookends imagine how weaksauce the rest of the room was to have those two as starters and you're mocking our depth?!
I know you not doing this cause you was talking out of your ahh.

There is no comparison between these DEs and Armstrong...these young guys (MK,SW,DE) haven't even had the chance to get their careers going and you want to compare them to a guy with more years than all them put together, it's apples n oranges. I'm done, but go ahead and do you.

they're all better than armstrong book it..BYE.
 
Fowler-is coming off of a double digit sack season with the commanders
EZ-is considered one of the most ready edge players in this year's draft. Coming off of a 16.5 sack season.
Sam Williams-might be the most physically gifted on the entire team, but hasn't put it all together
Houston-is a veteran with a 8 sack season under his belt. He dominated in the preseason games
Kneeland-more of a run defender coming out, but he reportedly is starting to become a better pass rusher

No doubt, it is going to be harder for this group without the attention Parsons would receive, but it doesn't mean they don't have a legitimate pass rush.
A good amount of potential. Might take EZ a while to adjust to the NFL but his college tape speaks for itself. Fowler is getting up there in age but probably still has some good games to go. Houston is super interesting. Kneeland is probably more of a power guy but he may produce some pressures. We've seen it from Williams, just need to see more. I don't think they'll be a bad group.
 
One key (in my opinion) is limiting snaps for all of DL.
- i.e. A consistent rotation.
- One reason fans complained that Parsons looked worn down later in the season(s) is that he played too many snaps.
It was a gift and a curse. We needed him out there on defense but he needed to play less snaps so he wasn't so worn down at the end of the year.

There is talent and upside potential, but have to prove they are legitimate players on this level

Stopping the run is all about playing together as a unit not 1 or 2 players making an impact play
 
What are your thoughts of Parsons as a run defender? I respect your opinion on breaking down the film and wonder if we are seeing the same issues
Here teams figured out to run the ball right at Parsons but I'm sure GB isn't paying him to be a great run defender. They want him to hunt the qb so if he makes a tackle here and there then it's a bonus.

It is, but rushing the passer without having to use extra rushers usually means you have to have someone who can consistently beat his OL opponent one on one. Parsons was so good at that that offenses had to give him extra attention, which opened up opportunities for others to get to the QB.

We may be better against the run, but that certainly doesn't mean we'll be better against the pass. I would prefer to be good against both. IMO, Parsons' play against the run is being magnified by those who want to downplay this loss. He is one of the premier players at his position and some want to pretend like he's not now that he's gone.
 
Number two backups that were starting for a championship team enough said...NEXT
Which Cowboys are you referring to that were starting for championship teams?

Fowler? Who else?

All Hall of Famers. I’m sure of it.
 
Side note. Why didn’t the Cowboys just send Parsons home while they try to find the best deal for him. I just believe a “Cleveland “ type of team would have given us a Godfather deal if Jerry was patient.
Or if Jerry wasn’t the most stupid GM in the NFL he could have secured a better deal. The guy has toe cheese for brains. Be happy he got two crappy 1’s. Don’t be an ungrateful fan.

This^^^^^lots of potential
but until they consistently do it at a high level........jags
 
Stop it, This team traded away a 3x all pro future HOFer and y'all are in here acting like it's nothing.
Look again. Part of the team and this one move puts them ahead of a rebuild rebound. This still a business and the team decision put them finally ahead given two more seasons. In the mean time, there is a lot valid talent to continue the team fight.

He'll easily afford new diamond necklaces and a mansion for Mom.
 
Did Houston not come off the street? Is Kneeland, Sam and Eze proven? Go ahead and tell me how good they are. Armstrong was a vet with years under his belt, on his 3rd contract last season, Dude shut up.

Again tell how proven they are and how Houston was a street FA.
Hey fella' go on and tell a son to go out on the field and just get in the way.
