Maybe in the playoff game vs Arizona have Parsons spy Murray. Otherwise rush all 3.
They’ll need all three at peak performance in the playoffs. Especially against the likes of Murray

Says the same guy who now finally decided that he wants to play for a Super Bowl this season. I guess the young kids are showing management that a $25M run defender was wasted resources and DLaw's ego is hurting.

He was paid as a top pass rusher and since his contract his sacks and pressures have decreased.
Is that due to teams focusing on stopping him with double teams and chips or his play? I think it’s a little of both. Still think he was the best player on last years bad defense.

To say he was the best player on last year's defense is like saying he was the brightest kid on the short bus. So what you are saying is that in 2017 & 2018 teams didn't double team him therefore he got 25 sacks in 2 seasons but as soon as he got his contract extension just before the 2019 season teams started to double team him therefore he only has 11.5 sacks since 2019? I guess once he got paid teams said let's double team the expensive DE.

I'd rather see Parsons line up at DE


I hear this a lot and it’s obvious why, the man just killed it in his limited snaps at that position. But here is my question. I would assume (without any nfl experience) that the coaches would be concerned with the long term wear and tear on his body from consistently going up against guards and tackles.

Most profound sentence within the article: "Would the Cowboys have paid Lawrence without him racking up 25 sacks over two seasons? Doubtful."

If this doesn't help you understand his impact and there's more to the position than sacks.........so be it. He was by far the hardest working player on the D last year. Does a lot of dirty work that never shows on the stat sheet.

Is that second tweet from Lawrence a reference to his career skidding off the tracks. LOL I kid, I kid.

We're 5-0 without you and 0-1 with you.

Of course you're "hungry to get back" and ride the coattails of everyone else's success while you continue to sleep walk your way through games.

I stopped being a fan of D-Law when he refused to get surgery until he was paid top money.

Our rookie LB is a better DE than D-Law.
