He is working...but that is being obtuse...Mr. YOU tosser....so what? That is good commitment...but he still needs to improve his interactions on all linebacker skills. Not for my own vanities...guess again.

To the chase, want a top notched linebacker on the par of Lawrence Taylor, or a defensive end that starts to lose some of his flash in 5-6 seasons?

Go ahead...lead us!

In my opinion, that has already begun. Parsons was not built to take on double teams by a pair of 300 pounders every other play. I think that was the reason for his slight decline in December. If he's going to wear down towards the ending of his 2nd season, that does not bode well for future production. This is the kind of player you want to hang on to for a decade.

Besides, Parsons has so many other abilities that are no being used at the EDGE position. The Cowboys are missing out on Parsons development as a LB who can cover the entire field. Playing EDGE limits his range.

I'm hoping that a different young lineman can begin to perform at a level that allows Parsons to be all he can be at the LB position. This doesn't mean that he can't rush the passer, just that he can't be specifically targeted in passing situations.

Using Parsons as almost a fulltime EDGE would be like the 49ers only using McCaffrey for 3rd down and short.

Great post as well.

If a team is setting up to injure a Cowboys player then it is up to the Cowboys to rectify that immediately. Romo was injured way too much and with serious injuries as well. It greatly affected his final years. I blame that on the team and those around him.

If teams are attempl to double down on Parsons, the two trash cans full of dirt, simply are not doing their jobs. Him working as an outside line backer still gives him rushing and line backer work. Fine...I just want him to continue all the success that this special player is possible to be....very top shelf and a true leader, not just player.

The poster can post anything he wants. I am just suggesting the person to take a break as he is criticizing a top 5 defensive player in football.

One does that where it actually applies. That helps, not insults the player. You make up battlefield reasons?

Oh...well I kinda disagree.

That said...you can post anything you want on here. Just a suggestion though...maybe you should take a break from posting in here until TC. Ur criticizing a guy for posting his opinion on a football message board that exists solely so people can post their opinion. Just a suggestch

You need a break as well. Just a suggestion. You shouldn’t comment until after the season. Go follow Bama.

This is how Parsons rates on the edge:

TIER 1
Click to expand...
  1. Myles Garrett, Cleveland Browns
  2. Micah Parsons, Dallas Cowboys
  3. Nick Bosa, San Francisco 49ers
  4. T.J. Watt, Pittsburgh Steelers
  5. Maxx Crosby, Las Vegas Raiders
  6. Joey Bosa, Los Angeles Chargers
Parsons finished top five in both pass rush grade (92.2) and win rate (19.6%) over the last two years and is No. 1 in the league in our pass rush productivity metric.

LOL either take a break or go tell his story to Parsons face. Something intriguing about that option.

Lawrence Taylor, Harry Carson, Willie Lanier, Mike Singletary, Ray Lewis...would all step forward and Parsons would listen to it all! Any real doubts?

He's too much new school and too much of a 'sweet' player to take full control of the Cowboys defense.

Old School linebackers: Lawrence Taylor, Harry Carson, Willie Lanier, Mike Singletary, Ray Lewis...they are not specialized besides effectively being immediately aggressive. They were in the play before they were blocked. Parsons gets blocked a lot, and isn't nearly as dominating as old school linebacker was for their team. That was five players who met every inch of the requirement. He better commit more within himself and less into talking about it. Do it!

Best player on the team and one of the best players in the league and only two years under his belt. I don’t think you want beef with him.

Skills have improved on the average players, but baics are still day one on what it takes to be a good play when paying attention to team directions.
It certainly isn't a now it's ours to that of those old folks home...That is a cop out of being a fan.

Lost on that post is the fact that they are all Hall of Fame and strongly entered.

You haven't touched an item of discussion. Is that today's form of stupid on...instead of straight ahead?

Bring a legitimate discussion and let's just see...or even your back stabbing way to be cute in an insult by implication? You and Shakespeare, right?
