Lawrence, Parsons, Osa Odighizuwa (
off to a blistering pace himself) and the entire defense left them for dead at AT&T Stadium, but it started with the Pro Bowl edge rusher reminding everyone he's also one of the best in the entire NFL at stopping the run.
"That's the standard of my game," Lawrence said. "I set that standard a long time ago. If I'm on the field, you know D-Law is gonna set the edge against the run and gonna make tackles for a loss. It's now all about getting that ball.
"… I feel like I'm playing [well]. It really doesn't even feel like [it's been] 10 years. I'm blessed and just getting after it. I feel like we have the team to do the necessary things that we want to do, and we've got the formula for winning down-pat."
Having defeated their first two opponents to the tune of 70-10 with 10 sacks and another league-high tally of takeaways, with no giveaways by Dallas' offense, indicates they do.
At the end of the day, the key is to never believe the job is done until it's actually done, and not just over the course of four quarters of football on any given week. It also means over the course of 20, or 21, games this season. Without the former, there is no latter. And without the latter, the former has no value.
