Micah Parsons has had enough of the media coming after his quarterback.
The Dallas Cowboys star pass rusher spoke on what he believes to be a double standard as to how they are criticized as opposed to a team like the Philadelphia Eagles.
“I just don’t condone the bashing of Dak Prescott and the Dallas Cowboys and have the same energy for the Eagles. We want the same energy for everybody. Cause there’s a whole bunch of bashing when it’s Dak Prescott, but not the same when it’s the Eagles. … Why is it that we are just scrubs and we’re nobodies that don’t deserve to be on the field and we’re just all talk. But there’s a hundred excuses for these other – these other teams. I’m tired of people trashing my quarterback. I’m tired of people trashing my team and that’s why I had nothing to say to the media this week.”
It is no secret that the Dallas Cowboys are the most polarizing team in the entire NFL. Any quarterback of the team will be heavily criticized no matter who is behind center. Tony Romo went through it, and many more before he went through it, and it will happen even after Prescott is long gone.
Other teams have the grace of getting away with not being dissected as hard which is what makes Parsons so upset. However, it is what it is. No other team moves the needle quite like the Cowboys.
