News: NFL: Micah Parsons Details Frustrating Night vs. Eagles

[Portnoy1]

People acting like there is a recipe to stop Micah now. No there isn’t… if that was the case every great pass rusher would be neutralized.

philly played it smart. On those plays there was nothing Micah could do…. He covers the wr it’s an easy hurts touchdown…. He goes after hurts hurts flips it to the wr. I don’t understand what people wanted Micah to do.

It's obvious what he needs to do. Be in 10 other places on the field at the same time LOL

It was just your typical Cowboys game against a good team.

The stars disappear and wait for the next weak team they can feast on.

Rinse and repeat.

Dak friendly..lol

 

[mattjames2010]

I expect this place to criticize him as much as they criticized Demarcus Ware. Where you folks at?

 

[PAPPYDOG]

Sometimes.........

Philly has some smart coaches. They played Micah perfectly by NOT blocking him and forcing him to choose between rushing and coverage. When he rushed, they just dumped the ball over him. If he dropped into coverage they ran it at him. I thought is was clever and they are the first team to play Micah this way. Not the every team can do this, but it should be interesting to see what Quinn comes up with the next time we face a read option QB.

They schemed him into oblivion. I'm hoping Quinn can come up with an answer next time because they really didn't have one last night.

Micah. 3 tackles and zero sacks……nuff said

Total 7 tackles, 2 tfl, 1 pass defended. (sorry, repost)

 

[Clove]

The defense gave up two long drives for TDs. That's my problem there, but that isn't what lost us this game. 10 penalties/3 INT all in their area. That can't happen, EVER. But luckily we're only 6 games in while they're celebrating their Super Bowl.

More evidence we’ve got the dumbest fanbase in sports.

Last nights defensive performance should put to rest these doomsday defense comparisons we’ve been seeing on the board. We may have a good pass rush but we continue to struggle against the run. We continue to have issues making critical stops against good teams in big games. After we crawled back making the score 20-17 we allowed Philly to go right up the field and score. They had something like 11 straight runs and we had no answers.

I say blast the QB every time they run that RPO. And also make sure the refs notice the olineman way down the field when they run a pass of rpo.

Sometimes you guys forget the other teams also get paid to play and coach.

Lane Johnson is one of the best RT of all time. Sirianni did a great job game planning against Micah. Credit to them.

No he isn't.

I’m sorry but Micah couldn’t run last night. He’s explosion was missing because of the groin. It was obvious

Part of it the other part was the eagles kept him off balance and he was indecisive so he probably looked even more impacted with his injury being unsure and pushing off insecurely

 

[PA Cowboy Fan]

Myself Micah would have played better if he wasn't pretty neutral on the rivalry and showed the same loyalty to the Cowboys that he does to Penn St.

Maybe now he'll understand this rivalry.

 

[plymkr]

This is the kind of response fans SHOULD hear from players after a loss.

Exactly, that makes my day. I'm pumped the leader of the team is more distraught than anyone and he's feeling bad. This is a huge mental shift from the Garrett years were players had fun whether they won or lost.

 

[FVSTONE]

That unsportsmanlike penalty was fricking costly and it wasn't the first time he's done something like this. I watched a few times now chirping after making a great play, but he got caught this time around to help the Eagles score!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[dreameaglegreen]

I thought that the best defensive player in the league would have had more than 3 solo tackles however if you think that’s a great performance more power to ya.

……is there a stat for almost sacking a qb?

yes, it's measured in mamula's, I think he was credited with 4 mamula's

 

[Runwildboys]

Micah. 3 tackles and zero sacks……nuff said

7 tackles, according to the article.

 

[FaSho]

I'm surprised it was only 3 tackles, it seemed like more. The Eagles were purposely getting the ball out quickly and he still almost got there a couple times. Plus he had two passes he knocked down in coverage. I also thought he had two tackles for loss but not sure on that one

Edit: just checked the box score. 7 tackles total. 3 solo tackles. 2 passes defensed. 1 TFL. I knew your numbers had to be off.

Gotta fit the agenda lol

 

[StarOfGlory]

No he isn't.

Actually, he might be.

No he isn't.

if I had to make a list of the ten best RT’s in NFL history, he is on my list.
