Why did Micah only get credited with 1.5 sacks yesterday when the film and clearly shows 3 sacks

Didn't bother me...his words were misconstrued by those that only hear what they wanna hear.

What?

First year following the league?

It’s happened quite often in the past. It will almost never happen now. First and second round draft picks represent the opportunity to add talent at comparatively reasonable compensation. Escalating salaries for QBs, WRs, and Edge Rushers make those draft picks more valuable than in the past. Trading them for a player that will require a huge contract is taking one step forward and one step back. Multiple firsts? Can the Cowboys afford to do that? Neither can other teams.

Every team has their first in 2025 and 2026. 29 teams have a second in 2025. All 32 have their second rounder in 2026. Those teams in the last three years that gave up significant draft capital in trade regret those deals. Some GMs learn slow, but they learn. And more than ever the draft itself is a show. A team without its first and second is out of the show. Owners are in no itching hurry to deny their team’s fans that excitement. And a trade that a team made to give up any early round pick(s) is scrutinized more than ever.

Having to pay Parsons what he’ll be demanding and giving up valuable draft capital for the chance to do it is not how to build a competitive roster. Micah might garner a couple of third rounders. Might. He’s a Cowboys player for life, like the team’s very expensive injured QB and very expensive pouting WR.

This is why the stats don't matter on Micah. I hope all this talk about dumping him goes away. That kid is an absolute beast. Did you see the play where they double covered him and he turned around the lineman so badly that he ended up running back towards his QB?

Fans have been complaining about him all year. He is a generational player. We need to continue to build the defense around him. With him and Overshown, this defense could be scary.

The stupidity never ends. Now the focus will be on ceedee. This board just wants to run the best players off of the team.

Is this what we call the TJ Watt Bias? Anytime TJ Watt even breathes on a QB he gets credited with a sack. I saw Micah sack Drew Lock three times solo yesterday, then today he only gets 1.5 sacks credited. BS.

No the film did not clearly show 3 sacks. Mazi got to the QB first and he was on his way down when parsons jumped on him.

 

[Chasing6]

It doesn't matter who gets 'em as long as we are getting 'em.

Micah don't want to here that.

 

[Chasing6]

Were any garbage time sacks?

That on counts for Dak.

Real questions are any against a team that has over .500 win percentage.

Fans like sacks. But Micah impacts half the plays in a game. He is the guy everyone on the oline fears and watches. That helps others and pressures, hits, as well as rushing a WB decision can be a huge impact and not show up in the box score

He gets lots of pressure against bad teams. We need a legit DT to help him out.

Generational player? not yet. HE has to be reliable and consistent to be such.
and if you want a reason why fans are down on him besides the fact that so far he has not been either is his big mouth; which writes checks so far he has not been able to cash

He also has been running out of gas by the 14th or 15th game… as well as not even showing up come playoff time. That is when a player can be taken seriously.

Better question yet; who cares?
