“As Washington gets ready for this game, they better alert their running backs, tight ends, and everybody because pressure is coming. The floodgates are going to be open.
And I said this on a radio show last week, Micah Parsons to me is the closest thing we have seen to Lawrence Taylor in this league in a long, long time. His athleticism. His quickness at that size. His speed. When he gets a shot at somebody he doesn’t miss them. If he’s coming, he’s either going through you or around you, or under you. I’ve been so impressed with his ability to play the game. The unique thing about Lawrence was his ability to be able to dissect an angle when he ran people down. His ability to make people miss when he tried to block them. And then that last-minute acceleration when he gets close to where a tackle is.
And like I said, I’m not saying he is Lawrence, because I’m not one of those people that says ‘this guy’s the next Michael Jordan.’ No. There’s only one Michael Jordan. There’s only one Lawrence Taylor. Those are generational people. But I think Micah Parsons is as close to anybody if you want to compare him to someone in the history of the game, to Lawrence Taylor.”
