Defense work ethic

If he develops Sean Lee's football IQ he will be in the GOAT conversation.
Get Lee here with a ok deal and ride bench , hopefully he can mentor Parsons, Lee’s body couldnt handle it but his mind was sharp.
 
You ever in a can't wait to get to work mode? It's a great feeling and no longer just a job.

If he'd been on that D last season, I wonder if he feels that way?

Culture change is dead on. Their confidence in Quinn has resulted in increased confidence in themselves as players and the concept of team defense.

Parsons results were immediate. In the second half, those Vikings OL and Cousins were asking themselves "who in the hell is THAT GUY? Anyone want to block him"?

If you didn't watch Parsons at Penn St the last season he played, you missed something at Linebacker U because he could end up being the best one they ever produced. He played faster than everybody on the field.

I saw clips of the Bowl game that he was in as a sophomore. I've never seen someone dominate a game on defense like he did. He was like on every single play.

From then on I was sold on him. Screw Surtain II or Jaycee Horn. Parsons is the real deal. What's frightening was he single-handedly destroyed Cousin's dump off passes on the flats and the screens. If you have a Linebacker that can singlehandedly do that in every game, teams will have a hard time against this defense.

Minnesota's offense I think its pretty good. What we did to them is pretty amazing....
 
That’s also coaching. How many times have this defense been beat by bootlegs? Vikings had the right game plan…they just didn’t know what to do once that wasn’t there for them.

And the cut backs were handled really well by our back side defenders. They stayed home and cleaned up when Cook tried to cut back.

Also Parsons single-handedly stopped their dump-offs and screens. We snuffed out the things that they do best and didn't have an answer.

Great point! This Defensive Ends used to get beat on boot legs all the time. It was so annoying! Our D ends are now doing their job( as Belicheat would say).
 
If you had a machine that could create anything you wanted, i.e., a masterpiece painting, a #1 hit song, etc, and you keyed in the information for a perfect NFL linebacker, out pops Micah Parsons.

Yeah I know that was a pleasure to see. Gives me faith in this defense…not to just beat teams but to be prepared.

Man I still to this day can’t get that Rams game out of my head. It’s one thing to lose but damn does it suck to watch a team just attack your weakness and there’s nothing you can do about it.
