Pretty sure this is why some are against him being a full-time pass rusher. Hell, it seems they had as many as three players blocking him on some plays. He CAN NOT take that kind of beating and expect a long career. Just can't.....

I do worry about him wearing down as the season progresses, and I hope DQ does his best to keep that from happening. But it won't be easy if every game is as close as they have been so far.

ok, doctor.
he ddi look rtahe bta uop the last 2 games, not inured but for sure held to no sacks and trying hard to keep coming back to get a sack, when maybe he should have sat out the last drives. we all know hes elevating other payers but at what cost. Theres a balance that could be had and sometimes coaches have to save layers from themselves.

You can get injured on any play, whether single blocked, doubled or tripled. Whether you're playing at the line or in the middle of the feild.

Its the luck of the draw.

This only means they're trying to slow Micah down by getting in his head.

What this team needs to do is shut everything out.

No media.

Just football and winning.

Parsons appears to be tiring out. He entered the season 5 pounds lighter than he was last season and he was already not the proto typical size of a DE. He’s having to take on a lot of double teams and it’s wearing him down. He hasn’t had a sack in his last two games and he missed a sack yesterday. He appeared to be having an issue with his back. Opponents are game planning him and it’s going to become tougher for him to get sacks. However, he was still very disruptive yesterday

The Commanders had a nice game plan for him, and largely kept him away with a variety of cut blocks.

He was able to dodge a few, but I would be very surprised if the Rams didn't see that on film and bring the same approach.

Parsons was part of the problem against the run yesterday. Some of those runs around the edges that Washington had they were able to take him out of the play. Parsons is a lot harder to scheme when you’re moving him around a lot and not sticking him at DE too often. Some of his flaws are starting to show up at DE.

Not the Point he was obviously gassed and limping on a few occasions add to it the flu etc etc, you try and get this kid a brake, protect him from himself when you have the opportunity in 17 game seasons. you dont keep running him back out if its not critical.

All this attention to Micah is clearly helping our Defense but he will get beat up in a long 17 game season,we need to move him around more and not let the opposition key in on him.
