Is Parsons becoming a bad guy?

[blueblood70]

Yall buying into the Jones family orchestrated smear campaign.

It's not a smear campaign the guys becoming Terrell Owens , OBJ, DEZ, to name a few, which isn't a bad thing it's not like he's getting in trouble off the field or getting in fights with teammates in the locker room like Charles Haley not having a mental breakdown like Antonio Brown however but

he's a me guy , he likes to be heard he likes to talk, stirs up SM etc, he likes to show up in lots of places except for some like voluntary stuff...

he doesn't do anymore than he has to for the team and I don't blame him for that , but this ain't no smear campaign...

it's obvious to everyone that there are guys out there like Terrell Owens who like to run their mouth who also when things aren't going right pout on the sideline not a true leader, not a guy who's going to just like go carry the defense and be that guy, he is not that guy...

What do you think we need Jerry or Stepen or the Jones family or anybody in the front office to make up what we see with our own eyes and hear with our own ears???

Maybe that's you maybe you're easily influenced but not me Parsons is the type of guy who leads on the field as far as his play goes but as soon as something ain't going right he's not getting calls he's getting blocked by two or three guys and he can't get a sack, he comes in hurt trying to stat pad at games that are all over vs rest for the next game, he begs his way back in because he is a little bit of a selfish player, there ain't nothing wrong with that, at least he's not melting down off the field etc.

He’s great for the haters as it gives them another target. Many here want to get rid of him, Cee Dee and Dak and start all over.

That's not it.

he brings that target on his own by running his mouth online, by not showing up for voluntary workouts, by doing the bare minimum for the team,

but when he's not getting his stats he's sitting over on the bench with a pouty face, so he's bringing this on himself,

there's nothing wrong with that he's a Terrell Owens type player he's not a leader in all aspects of a player he just does his leadership through play only but he doesn't go any further than that he's not the face of the team he's not the guy that rallies the troops on the sideline.. so, yes he's a target because he brings it on himself, he likes to talk he likes to stir up trouble on social media he's like OBJ Terrell Owens Dez Bryant there's nothing wrong with these guys but we're telling the truth when we say that he's not a true leader but he's not a bad guy either....

The man has the right to be himself but he also has to take the backlash for bringing so much attention on himself and the team for coming into games hurt or when they're all but over and he should be on the bench with his pads off resting for the next game , he's trying to get another sack when we're leading by 40 points...

lamb isn't quite that guy but you have other guys on this team I hardly ever say anything in public and that's hard to do nowadays but like Trayvon diggs, even Bland ,very soft spoken doesn't want the spotlight on them,, they just go out and play but that's not where it ends for Parsons he's bringing the heat on himself...

That's not it he brings that target on his own by running his mouth online by not showing up for voluntary workouts by doing the bare minimum for the team but when he's not getting his stout stats he's sitting over on the bench with a pouty face so he's bringing this on himself there's nothing wrong with that he's a Terrell Owens type player he's not a leader in all aspects of a player he just does his leadership through play only but he doesn't go any further than that he's not the face of the team he's not the guy that rallies the troops on the sideline so yes he's a target because he brings it on himself he likes to talk he likes to stir up trouble on social media he's like OJ Terrell Owens Dez Bryant there's nothing wrong with these guys but we're telling the truth when we say that he's not a true leader but he's not a bad guy either.... The man has the right to be himself but he also has to take the backlash for bringing so much attention on himself and the team for coming into games hurt or when they're all but over and he should be on the bench with his pads off wrestling for the next game he's trying to get another sack when we're leading by 40 points... lamb isn't quite that guy but you have other guys on this team I hardly ever say anything in public and that's hard to do nowadays but like Trayvon diggs, even bland very ,soft spoken doesn't want the spotlight on them they just go out and play but that's not where it ends for Parsons he's bringing the heat on himself...

Maybe Zimmer can hasten his maturity.

 

[Loso86]

Norm bringing some insight on Parsons and I can't dissagree with what Norm is saying about Parsons

Around here yes because all our fans do is love a guy and a pick until it's time to get paid or he does get laid and then we hate him! OORR we want a guy with attitude etc then we get him and it's too much lmao

 

[KJJ]

He’s become a diva. He hasn’t made our defense great and we continue to fold defensively in the playoffs. He runs out of gas the final month of the season. He’s been a no-show in all four of his playoff games. He says he only wants to play until he’s 30. He seems more interested in social media and his podcasts than football. He doesn’t appear to love football. Never thought I would say this, but I wouldn’t be opposed to dangling him out there and seeing what we could get in a trade.

 

[kumizi]

Not sure if he's becoming one or already was one. He was sexually assaulting teammates in college.

 

[DandyDon52]

parsons is like he is because of Jerry.
Jerry lets him do anything he wants, and the HC has no power over Micah because Jerry doesnt allow that.
MM thought micah should at least show up at Ota's and said something, but next day he isnt because jerry
said something to MM.
Jerry is the culture leader, and that is why the culture with cowboys is so bad.

With the tainted culture guys like micah allowed to do whatever they want is going to taint micah and others.

 

[JBS]

He’s been this way since college.

He’s always been the “bad guy”.

We just overlook it because he can rush the QB for 11 Weeks a year.

Better hope Parsons isn’t the one the team lets go of and keeps Dak

That's just wrong,

you're blaming a grown man for another grown man's actions?

I don't think so!


they come out of the package like that, don't act like this is on Jerry, what are you going to do these are million dollar players that this all over the league... I mean with Jerry's fault that Terrell Owens and OBJ and all these other players around the league who are Divas or worse Antonio Browns or the Hardys, the Colin Kaepernick, the boneheaded players that get in trouble.

I mean you get guys with this swagger even at like Oklahoma and Texas they come into the league.. I mean hell you can go all the way back to having this kind of attitude to The Jets quarterback Broadway Joe in the 70s all that drug use and PEDS allowed and it showed on the field with roid heads etc

I don't know you're telling me that Jerry is a babysitter and that he has to teach a grown man to be mature and grown?? NOT, you're not cutting your number one overall pick that's one of your best players on the team, Jimmy Johnson didn't you remember the Jimmy Johnson didn't do Jack ****, you remember his boisterous Miami Hurricanes he allowed them to do that stuff in college guys like Deon Sanders came into the league that way, this was not on the owners to be babysitters... people keep saying same thing and its untrue.

... Lawrence Taylor did drugs go on game day and they didn't care, did bill Parcells cut him hell no he didn't he didn't even care he let him do what he wanted long as he showed up it was a monster on the field..... We watch guys get rewarded like deshaun Watson it's under suspension gets traded for big time draft picks and then it handed a guaranteed contract the man's got more warts than a witch and yet he gets rewarded for his actions kiss you they can't control everyone they just hope to contain them to a point where they don't look bad enough to be suspended.... But then they walk right back out on the field collect that paycheck and keep on having a long career.

The big man on campus rules from a high school all the way through college and yes in the pros... it's even worse because now they're making millions, they're very important and with a salary cap, roster limits, you're not making an example out of your superstars....

The league does not create these players, the players were already like that, it just gives him a bigger stage to be like that... The man is not getting in trouble off the field just like Terrell Owens who was a very clean guy I don't even think he drank the man was about the cleanest eater and the biggest gym rat I've ever seen he had no mental problems he was just a guy who was a selfish me guy and he did it his whole career no matter who the coach was the owners were you don't change people when they're that age they are who they are....

 

[acr731]

I don't think he's bad but I don't think he's the leader some media and fans want him to be so they see him as bad.

A leader is at OTA's with his teammates, and Parsons doesn't seem to be interested in being a leader. A good leader also stays away from calling people out in the media / social media. Maybe that's the issue people have with him.

 

[Hadenough]

Parsons is hands down the biggest difference maker on defense in the NFL. He is the best defender regardless of you guys saying he doesn't show up in the playoffs. I'm gonna use you Dak analogy and say he doesn't have any help. It's like fighting 3 guys while your friends are standing around watching. Anyways Parsons is going to be the highest paid non QB in the NFL.

 

[plasticman]

So long as he remains a "bad guy" on the field, I don't mind his antics.

He's not engaging in criminal behavior and that's a big difference from previous Cowboys bad guys.

I understand the point you are trying to make, but you might be slightly avoiding what DandyDon was trying to say. Jerry doesn't encourage a 'win at all costs' attitude, he simply wants to be everyone's favorite grand pa, and each person on the roster knows this. This is where the culture thing comes from. MM's comment about the 98% being there for OTA's speaks volumes. He's pissed - and he should be. But it doesn't seem as though he's ever had much of a say in things like this, and it shows.

For as bat poop crazy as Al Davis was, he was all about winning. Unfortunately, I can't remember the last time Jerry had a similar mindset, assuming he ever had it to begin with. This is the largest obstacle preventing the Cowboys from reaching NFCCG's and super bowls. Not a single person in the franchise seems to want to get there, from the owner on down. The owner isn't passionate about winning, so why should the players on the team be that way?

 

[HungryLion]

Lot of anti Micah propaganda being pumped out the same year he is eligible for a contract extension.

So strange.

 

[FuzzyLumpkins]

He is hurting himself. New defense and he is out of town. The leadership aspect is real but we do not need him to be a leader to be a gamechanger.

Qualitative characterizations are gratuitous at best.

 

[Playmaker3128]

A guy that’s been a runner up for dpoy or third in the voting in every season he’s played…. And one of the teams hardest workers.. and people still criticize… it’s crazy. Cowboys fans legit don’t want good things.

 

[TheCritic]

The skipping OTAs doesn't bother me as much as the thought of the Cowboys spending Top 5 QB money on a player that disappears as the season wears on and doesn't rise to the occasion during the biggest games of the year. What it comes down to me is the draft capital I could get out of him, plus spending the money elsewhere. Yes you can't replace his elite athleticism and explosiveness, but face it, he's going to end up costing you way more than he's worth!

 

[Bobhaze]

The biggest way to improve Micah Parsons’ image is for this team to win some playoff games. Winning literally cures everything. When you underachieve as a team, there’s more things to notice thats wrong. The other thing he could do is be a leader by example. Give the social media blitz and self promos a break once in a while.

 

[JoeKing]

Micah is not a good teammate—a great player, but not a great team guy. I suspect immaturity is in play here after his favorite coach(Dan Quinn) left the team. I think Micah wanted to follow his coach and the Cowboys FO prevented that from happening. I wouldn't be surprised if not getting a new contract as a Cowboy has been his consideration. He knows he's getting paid, but wanting to be elsewhere seems strong in his priorities. I hope I'm wrong.

 

[ghst187]

Parsons doesn't fit the mold of a Dallas Cowboy. He isn't a yes sir man that bows down to the lazy Cowboy way. Micah belongs with the Eagles, Steelers , 49ers, Ravens, Bills.

Nope, he is a cowboy through and through,…attention hog, talks a lot, MIA during the playoffs. Fits right in.
