Micah Parsons critical of Packers defense as Dallas return ends in tie

Arlington, Texas – Micah Parsons obtained something he wanted on his return to the AT&T stadium: he dismissed his former quarter -arre, Dak Prescott. The rest, however, left him dissatisfied after his current team, the Green Bay Packers, played his former team, the Cowboys of Dallas, with an equality of 40-40 on Sunday evening.

Although some on the two sides did not know how to feel about equality in which the two teams launched goals on the ground in overtime – the packers with only one second on the left in the additional session after having managed the remaining time – the feelings of parsons were clear.

“I’m not even going to lie, I’m upset,” said Parsons. “I am very disappointed, just in the whole of the way we played.”

He was not talking about the Packers offensive. He said that he essentially apologized to the quarter-Arrière Jordan Love, who launched 337 yards and three affected.

“I even said to Jordan aside, you know:” Thank you for having our back today “,” said Parsons. “You know, that’s why it is so crucial for, you know that you are playing complementary football. Because today Jordan has played like the player he was, and we dropped him. We did not meet the expectations in terms of defense.”

Faced with his former team almost exactly a month after being exchanged for the packers following an inter -season contract dispute with the owner of the cowboys and director general Jerry Jones, Parsons finished with four pressures – two of which came to prolong, when he limogé Prescott at the second goal of the 4 yards of the Packers. The bag might have saved a touch because after Prescott launched incomplete in third drop, the cowboys kicked 22 yards to hit the first in overtime.

In a game that has presented seven head changes – most in equality in the history of the NFL, according to ESPN Research – 319 Prescott yards and three affected by the production of Love. Packers put pressure on Prescott out of 14 of his 41 deposits (34%), but he barely discouraged it. He completed 10 of the 13 passes for 121 yards and first 6 stockings when they are in a hurry.

“You are looking at how precise the n ° 4 was this evening, just passing through its throws, going to its receivers, the timing,” said Parsons about Prescott. “I think he played a better match we played in defense. So you know, shouting in Dak, and I said to him:` `You’re going to watch this film. You are lucky if you were not on your S —, it would have been a long day, it would have been a very long day for you.

Beyond the embrace and post-match conversations with several of his former teammates, Fareons said that he had no other emotions in his return to his home in the NFL during the first four years of his career.

“You know, honestly, I think that overall, emotions for me being in Dallas have disappeared when they exchanged me,” said Parsons.

Starts has never mentioned Jones by name, but as he said many times since trade, he has not spoken to Jones for months.

“He couldn’t tell me like a man [about the trade]”Said Parsons.” So, for me, this emotion side disappeared. It was more a factor of respect at this stage. “

Before the match, Parsons and Jones did not interact. Parsons did not work in the field before pre-match warming.

“It’s just not appropriate,” said Jones. “What are we supposed to do when we are preparing to play each other, everything that is at stake for him and everything that is at stake for our team, the cowboys? It is not appropriate to visit while you are preparing to play.”

And during the match, Startes did not talk about waste either.

“Zero,” said Prescott. “Not at all. Not at all. Until the following and it was great, good talks afterwards, staying in good health, excellent work, it was fun to compete against you. But no conversation occurred at all during the match.”

Not even after Parsons dismissed Prescott in overtime.

“I didn’t know it was Micah on my back,” said Prescott.

The cowboys have done their best to neutralize Parsons.

“It comes back to the plan,” said Prescott. “That it will be all hands on the deck, whether the extremities tight, whether it be the runners. Honestly, there was head-to-head, and these plasters did their job. Intensified and did what they had to do, kept it and removed it from me.”

“I even said to Jordan [Love] Aside, you know: “Thank you for having our back today”. … Because today Jordan played like the player he was, and we dropped him. We were not up to the level of expectations in defense. “”

Parson micah packers

Cowboys coach Brian Schottenheimer did not reveal the plan, although Jake Ferguson, winger, hunted on several occasions before going out on a road, and the team used maximum protections to sometimes consolidate the front.

“What a great player, guy,” said Schottenheimer. “We have other micahs [as the year goes on]And I hope to see Micah again. I hope we see it again here in January. “”

Jones, however, has expressed any regrets to exchange it.

“I knew he was the great player he is. And I like the way we have prepared to play it, to have played him and we ran him towards him, but we knew he was there,” said Jones. “He made a difference. But that’s how it happens. Whether we liked it or not, I’m going to take my side and Green Bay can have their side.”

And the two parties won equality, leaving the packers at 2-1-1 and the cowboys at 1-2-1.
