Fixing The Cowboys Porous Run Defense (re: Micah Parsons)

[McKDaddy]

He isnt hated and he isnt the no1 Run D problem, but by the same measure he plays purely for Micah and not the team. yes, there's weaknesses within the line, however, he becomes easier to scheme away from, as pretty much every Down he's trying to get to the QB, or run game for a loss

This!!!

Our run defense has been a huge issue for years. I can’t remember the last time I felt good about our run defense.

Micah was a noted run stopper as a downhill LB. His problem is simply position. Maybe a 3-4 OLB would help.

That he is a DE exclusively is peak Cowboys stupidity.

Wait, most everyone blames the porous run defense on the DT's. Now it is Micah's fault?

Not his fault but is definitely part of the problem.
