Stats Show How Micah Parsons Performed In Return To Dallas

 

The Green Bay Packers are still undefeated at AT&T Stadium.

Even so, they may not feel like they are after their Week 4 tie against the Dallas Cowboys.

That should definitely be the case for Micah Parsons.

The former Cowboys star failed to make much of an impact in his return after his preseason trade.

As pointed out by PFF, Parsons logged eight pressures and one sack against former teammate Dak Prescott.

On a positive note, the edge rusher did have a 34.5 percent pass rush win rate, and the Cowboys didn’t run the ball his way.

Those numbers are OK, but the bar is much higher for a player of Parsons’ caliber.

That’s also considering he was facing the team that may have disrespected him during contract negotiations before trading him days before the start of the season.

To be fair, Parsons is dealing with a lingering back issue, and he did make a game-saving play with his overtime tackle of Prescott.

The fans and the media expected a career game from Parsons.

Instead, it shed light on some of his woes.

He’s drawn criticism for not showing up in big moments, and this may have been another example of that worrisome trend.

He’s clearly not the only one to blame for giving up 40 points against a decimated offense missing arguably its best player (CeeDee Lamb).

More than that, Parsons should bounce back, although his back injury will continue to be a situation to keep an eye on.
