Will Nick Bosa have an influence on Micah's next contract?

IF people want to see how bad it will get look at the ravens negotiations with Terrell Suggs, they wanted to pay him as LBer bur he wanted elite DE money. If Dallas thinks they can do that this will get ugly.

I knew this would happen. Highest paid LB don’t get the same as pass rushing DE. We run a hybrid of the 3-4. Sometimes we line up 4-3. He is gonna want DE money for sure. I want to see what he does this year. He talks a lot. He has 2 more seasons but is on pace to beat bosa sacks and tackles. Because bosa injury it’s crazy for stats. Parsons has 18 less games but bosa only has 10 more solo tackles than Parsons. And bosa has 17 more sacks. Stats are close and this year Parson turns it on and he has a case to have a better contract.

Just to clarify my thinking, you’re suggesting the 49ers’ Super Bowl hopes rest on the play of their quarterback more than Bosa? How much are they paying their quarterback? I can understand their reluctance to shell out $32 million AAV for a player that apparently no matter how well he plays it won’t garner them a Super Bowl victory…according to you. All I’m saying is whatever he signs for Parsons will sign for more.

It’s a passing league. All the rules have been bent to promote scoring and perfect the QB. Defenses are handcuffed these days with most of the rules favoring the offense. The reason San Francisco lost the Super Bowl to KC a few years ago was because Jimmy G missed some throws late in the game that could’ve sealed it. He got outplayed by Mahomes in the fourth quarter. Once Brock Purdy was injured against Philly in the playoffs, San Francisco was done. Your Super Bowl fate is always going rest more on the play of your QB than it is a defensive player. There’s a reason most of the league MVPs and Super Bowl MVPs are QBs.

There’s a reason QBs get paid so much money and are so coveted. It’s not going to matter how great Bosa plays if you can’t stop Mahomes when the game is on the line. Despite hobbling around against Philly last February, Mahomes took over the second half. Parsons is a great player, but our defense has been ranked outside the top 10 both years with him. His play has faded down the stretch his first two seasons. We’ll see if he exceeds Boza’s deal. He’ll certainly be looking to exceed it, but a lot of it will depend on how he plays this season.

If you think the players are too rich imagine the guys who write their checks

I can't argue that. But it's the fans that pick up the tab. I just wish the players were as loyal to their teams instead of the almighty $$. Football just isn't football like it used to be.

MP will obviously seek more than Bosa when his time comes. And dealing with Jerry, he will get it. He is Jerry's prize piece and shiny object that he needs. Doesn't matter if he has less sacks than Bosa, and no DPOY.....that is irrelevant.
