What if that IS his main talent though and he's one of the best in the NFL at it? Because last week he was one of the best in the NFL at it.

He hasn’t even scratched the service on what he can do. We don’t even know what his best asset is yet. He could be Von Miller or he could be Ray Lewis.

Gregory will be playing Right DE. Micah can remain at Left DE since he dominated there all game long versus the Chargers. Jaylon did ok versus the Chargers. He did lead the team in tackles. If you don't trust Jaylon, plug in rookie Jabril Cox in his spot. Cox can do the job, is quicker, faster and more aggressive. Problem solved.

Yah, I just dont think they plug in Cox. I would love that. Lets also remember that Parsons was going up against a backup XFL last minute replacement. I think that is one of the main reasons they made the move. I think if we contain Hurts in the pocket we win this game. Parsons can rush from all over the field if they like him to from the linebacker position. And on certain downs I am sure they do have him rushing from the outside.

we will need MP to be all over with Tank out and pressure not coming from normal sets and yes not even from Gregory game 1 was gettign it done..

i mean if we need Parsons to be DE all season IODC if it worlds why not didn't we move the Manster out of his natural LB position to DL and history was made... not the rifts time player gets drafted and ends up being very good at one position and finding out he can be a HOF at the other.

lets let Quinn and other Defensive coaches figure out what's best..

I want him to make a difference.
The more difference-makers the team gains is a good thing.

Do I think he's a sure thing?
I can't say anything has pointed me in that direction with any surety.

I sure want him to start showing that potential that made him considered a top 10 pick before his continued issues.

Buddy I absolutely agree with you and hope like anything that you are right and I am completely wrong ........ Because if he starts having a great career it will be great for our team.

I hope I am able to eat all the crow ....... All of it.

It's odd how certain segments of fan bases can't be realistic about their players. If our players were as good as segments of the fan base think they are we'd be 17-0 every year and never lose. The reality is they're not and it doesn't make you any less of a fan to accept that and be realistic about it.

i'm not sure why i'm as delusional about randy as i am, but i make no apologies lol

Mr Parsons needs to play linebacker. He has a lot to learn about playing at the professional level. Cut his teeth early so maybe by half way through the season he is a bit mo savvy.

The Dallas Cowboys front office is paying other dudes millions of combined dollars to play that position...let'em do it.

Go Cowboys!

Sorry, bro. I would prefer seeing Parsons rushing from the left DE spot. Imagine how much pressure he could create on Jalen Hurts and how much that could help our Defense? Keep Parsons at DE and let him wreak havoc on the Eagles all game long the way he did to the Chargers.
IMO, with Hurts, I do everything I can to keep him in the pocket and throw it instead of him breaking containment and running.

While I think Parson should blitz on occasion, so that we make Hurts think about it some, I think Parsons spying from a LB position, especially on 3rd down, improves our chances against Hurts quite a bit. I honestly feel like the only way Hurts can make an impact on this game is with timely runs for 1st Down.

Now against QBs that actually a threat throwing the football? Ya, rush Parsons early and often.

Again, JMHO.
