People. Read the next 2 paragraphs that you can't see on the Twitter link.

Accidental click-bait. LOL

“I think it will be pretty cool because obviously old-school mindset, old-school mentality. I think he’s had a lot of great players, but he ain’t ever have a Micah before. It will be fun, and I think it’s going to be unique. “There’s a lot of similarities on things to how he uses me to how Dan (Quinn) used me in the system, but he has more twists and turns of how he’s going to set things up. Also, there are some things that I’ve got to get used to, too. It’s going to be a compromisable relationship. There’s going to be things he’s like, ‘I’m not going to give on. I don’t give on.’ That’s part of the regime, you know?”

The guy is an elite pass rusher, which is a very valuable skill set, but if they continue to whiff at DT, he can be eliminated from games, and wrongly blamed for disappearing.

They just aren’t letting marketable stars that they were lucky to get walk away. They should have pushed harder to win when they weren’t so expensive but not everyone is good at this, Jerry and his kid included.

I do love me some Micah he a baller but it wouldnt kill me to trade him away for a few high picks as hes high maintenance. It also wont kill me if hes kept but Micah is a diva who shows signs of being more interested in the public eye and being the focal point of attention than actual winning. I could be reading it all wrong but of the 3 large contracts to be made soon his is worrisome.

Id certainly pay CeeDee then think hard on Micah. Im indifferent on Dak. Im ok either way

Doesn't practice censorship, does he? Actually believe this is overblown given the history of the source of the comments, but can someone close to this guy tackle him when he wants to talk!

Micah will be alright, but he certainly does open the door a crack for negative criticism. Just think before you speak, man.

I dont care if they say another 5 words to each other over this season....can they silently work together and stop offense in the playoffs? Thats the only question i care about...communicate how you need just get the job done.

We all know Zim is NOT one to treat players differently regardless of draft, contracts or superstars. He just said the other day, he can't wait to pair Parsons with his rookie LBers. So this is probably being blown out of proportion ..........by his critics.

I want Zimm to work but it just looks like such a stupid higher…it’s like they had no plan in place for if Quinn left but this is what you get stuck with when your coach has no security after winning 12 games in a row 3 times.

It’s obvious Parsons isn’t happy with the DC change. Could be trouble ahead. Might be time to start looking for a trade partner.

Coach Zimmer to an assistant coach,
"Go tell Parsons he's been traded to New England."

It’s a safe bet Parsons and Zimmer are going to butt heads if they haven’t already.

Reminds me so so so much of Odell Beckham. In the sense that he's a special talent but once he left the giants that stardom died. I think the same would happen to Micah if he were to be traded.

Well that’s encouraging.
Hmmm… came off as a well thought out and articulate response to a question on the steps needed to mesh what he does well with Zimmer’s system. But hey, based on the preponderance of your post I can see how well thought out and articulate could be a bit difficult you you!

Good, I hope they aren't friendly with each other at all. I hope Parsons spends all season trying to teach Zimmer there's nothing he can't do and that Zimmer spends all season trying to find something he can't. There's been too much grab arse and kum ba yahing on this team and we can save all the bro hugs for the trophy presentation.
