Parsons and Taylor should never be mentioned in the same sentence

L.T. was a COMPLETE linebacker. He was as good against the run as he was terrorizing qbs. His backside pursuit of rbs was amazing. And he had no problems shedding blocks and getting the tackle when offenses attempted to run directly at him as well.

Micah might be a lion when prowling for qbs. But he is a mere pup against the run. Now here is the greatest defensive player of all time showing you raw aggression and relentless pursuit against the run. Micah is not even in the same stratosphere.

They don't make players like LT nowadays.

LT was a machine born to play football. He was unstoppable in the run AND pass. He had a motor that could play side line to sideline in all quarters of the game. He once played a game with a torn shoulder and made an impact. We will never see another LT in our lifetimes. He is a one in every 1000 year player. What's even more crazy is he never trained. Never practiced hard due to partying. Never lifted weights. Was abusing baking soda / booger sugar through half of his career He played the game with reckless abandon with no regard for his or others lives.

So what about comparisons to other great hall of fame OLBs in all time history ?
Derrick Thomas,.. Derrick Brooks,.. Dware, ..Terrell Suggs ..etc.

Is Parson the best OLB in the NFL right now ? ala TJ Watts vs Parsons ?

Let Micah be Micah.

The talking heads comparing him to LT in his second year were fools for doing so anyway.

LT also played with linebackers Gary Reasons, Harry Carson and Carl Banks and defensive linemen George Martin, Leonard Marshall and Jim Burt.

Tell me who on the Cowboys defense you wouldn't trade straight up for any one of the Blue Wrecking Crew?
thank you for posting this! LT was the man, but he also played with a bunch of other men that put the fear of the man above in the other team. Micah has..? Take Micah off of this team and you knuckleheads who want to blame him will be in for a nasty surprise. We don't need him to be LT, we need others to step up and so far, still looking for that group to help him out
