This week’s film breakdown analyzes Dallas Cowboys Linebacker Micah Parsons. Parsons is in his second year and is already well on his way to being one of the best players in the NFL. He already won defensive rookie of the year last year, and now he’s looking to become the defensive player of the year. In my opinion, we haven’t seen a player of his skill set and versatility other than one Lawrence Taylor, so the question is: just WHAT is it that makes Parsons so good? This week’s episode uses the all-22 coaches film to analyze Dallas Cowboys Linebacker Micah Parsons.

You tripping his collage tape was insane he just wasn’t used as pass rusher at all. But he sat out his entire jr year due to covid and he was still regarded as a top10 talent even tho he didn’t play at all but his crazy speed, coverage ability and rushing skills at the LB position made him the best LB coming out of that draft. What nobody knew was that he would dominate as a pure pass rusher. If they did he would’ve been drafted in the top5 overall. He probably fell to the mid 1st round bc he sat out his Jr year in collage

Micah Parsons is the first person in a long time I have seen that could legitimately win MVP as a defensive player in his career. Hell if the Cowboys go on a crazy streak and lead the league while having a backup QB for maybe half the season he would win it this year.

[@NigelJ]

Saw Parsons play DE as a freshman in high school at Central Dauphin in PA in the state title game. It was easy to tell then, this kid was going to be special. He looked like a man among boys then, and in many ways, still does in the NFL. He later transferred to Harrisburg High School, where he had 27 TDs as a RB when he was a senior. That RB experience is def evident in some of his moves off the LOS.

The get-off is because of explosiveness, not running speed, really. They test that with the vertical jump.

@@dundalis what they do at the combine may not be their best form. 34 inches is still very good, (average is probably like 25 among non pro athletes). combined with the quickness and motor that initial burst IMO is what helps him the most with his pass rush. While he is probably going to end up being the best this year, there are others who play on the edge that are comparable, like Crosby, Watt, Garrett, and a few others.

[@justjamie4795]

I really like how DQ uses him like offenses use their “weapons” and moves him around do you can’t get a beat on where he’ll be every play.

[@faveology]

Aaron Donald does the same. I was hoping KC putting Chris Jones at DE for a bit last year meant they'd use him like a swiss army knife this year, but they haven't. He just rotates which side of the interior line he is on to get his best matchup

No offense Aaron Donald isn’t the same way at all Parsons literally lines up at slot corner sometimes like Parsons literally deflected a pass against Terry McLaurin he also lines up head up against the center he also could put his hand in the dirt he also lines of head up over a tackle he also is an overhang defender in the run game for one game he even had to be an outside corner against Saquon Barkley

The fact of the matter is that Nick Bosa is having a better season than Micah Parsons and every other edge rusher this season.

[@gatienlaurol5793]

I was thinking the same thing. He’s a very good defensive player but I don’t think he would be a unanimous DPOY.

[@PC487]

Bosa has 2 more sacks and a whopping 7 more qb hits than Parsons (over 4 games). If you watch Bosa, he's impacting the game on practically every play either by pressuring QBs into other DL or forcing incompletions. Parsons is a scary DE, just certainly not a runaway DPOY in a league where Bosa plays.

[@spacecowboy3172]

Y’all realize micah doesn’t rush the passer every snap right? The cowboys literally put him at cornerback sometimes. You can’t just look at sacks and pressures and hits you have to look at everything with him. Covering terry mclaurin 1 on 1 successfully, blowing up running plays as a MLB. He might not be the best pass rusher in the league- but he is the best defensive player in the league.

[@PC487]

@@spacecowboy3172 okay, are you saying he's as impactful in coverage as a rusher or that the Cowboys are misusing him? The numbers and eye test say he's arguably not even a top 5 coverage lb (much less coverage db) while he's easily a top 5 DE. In case you were wondering: Warner, Wagner, D. Davis, L. David, Kendricks, and Leonard. I guess that we'll have to disagree that doing a bunch of things well is better than being the most disruptive player in the game. Heck, Parsons may be DPOY, but, again, he's certainly not the runaway DPOY when Bosa plays in this league.

I was listening online to a Dallas morning radio show and felt that they were wrong for criticizing the Parsons pick so I texted the station and told them they were wrong because I've seen Micah play since high school and told them that we just drafted a combination of Lawrence Taylor and Jim Brown. I also believe that if Micah was allowed to play running back everyone would quickly see that he's easily the best running back in the league. Micah would run over, through, around, and by defenders even better than Derrick Henry does. Jim Brown was a monster with speed but he didn't play against the talent in the league today. Micah would destroy the league right now as a tailback.

[@monophthalmos9633]

Bit of a noob question: When I see these clips, the OT's almost always have their arms pretty low and they go for the middle of the DE'S torso. Couldn't they really mess with an edge rusher's balance if they attacked one of their shoulders? Take the frame at 10:01 here: Parsons has his full weight on his left foot and his arms are pretty low, lower than the hands of the left tackle. What if the tackle shoved Parson's left shoulder in this moment? And I mean the front of the shoulder, not the back, like he did in-game.

You see stuff how I see it. Like I used to play DT and FB and I never understand how you can be pass rushing and get completely stonewalled…like no progress forward bro go around him

[@faveology]

On the Bengals clip at 8:30. That's just piss poor coaching. Mixon should know to chip there. As far as the guard goes, he has to be closer to help on any inside moves so the tackle can focus purely on outside moves. They left him on an island, and tbh he did a damn good job. Burrow was more responsible for that sack than the tackle. He could have stepped under his tackle to buy more time. Instead he tried to run away. He still had about 2 5-3 seconds to throw too. Edit: What I am getting at is the Bengals coaching staff sucks. You have a premiere rusher in Parsons but you choose to leave your tackle on an island? Like it blows me away how some of these teams just absolutely refuse to help their offensive line. To the casual fan, it is the o-line's fault, but people who know a little more about football can tell you that's not on the o-line. Like the Giants. Do people really think Thomas magically improved that much at tackle? Hell no. The Giants started helping him. They started chipping and what not. Good coaching can makeup for mediocre o-line players

[@joseledesma1968]

Not hufanga or nick bosa?

[@C3N-214]

Can they play slot corner, DE and MLB?😂

[@imalwayslast3170]

Parsons is getting double and triple teamed and still finding a way to break through. He is definitely pulling enough of the line for other to get to the QB. There are 3 numbers you don't want to see as an opposing team...11, 7, and 20(obviously offense.)

[@rkbelmont1138]

Parsons and Bosa are the two horses on this race.

[@calebstaab4116]

Bosa might be better on the line currently, but Parsons the only dude who can guard Terry Mclaurin in man coverage as well as compete with Bosa at hitting the QB.

[@Mekhami]

@@calebstaab4116 this right here. Bosa is Trout, but Parsons is Ohtani. He lines up all over the damn field! He's played slot corner for crying out loud! He's even lined up at center for a couple snaps lol. Bosa is a great DE, but Parsons is an entire defense, and breaks records despite lining up all over the fields.

[@Andrew-qg9ll]

Bosa

[@santinodellacroce2079]

Im an eagles fan and I love Micah Parsons......this guy is special man. I legit watch cowboys games because of him. The lions always hungry lol

[@thechosenwon4246]

Everyone saying bosa. Id like to see bosa play linebacker and corner like micah has

[@PC487]

Bosa is more impactful as a DE than Parsons as a LB or DB. Every play Parsons plays when he's not rushing the passer is a waste. He's an elite DE. He's decent but not nearly the playmaker in coverage that he is at DE.

[@n.willy4864]

@@PC487 not a waste, being versatile keeps offenses guessing

[@SuperSolshy]

@@PC487 This is just laughably incorrect. Parsons actually improves the run defense 1.5 yds a carry when he is playing Mike vs DE. He is also incredibly efficient at shut down short to mid routes when he drops into coverage, but has a tendency to get beat on slants and crossing routes.

[@alvarovaldez9592]

you see these videos about what QB would you take to start a franchise. i am taking Parsons.

[@WorkBundle]

Damn he lasted until the 12th pick in 2021 draft.

[@bigpoke7043]

I still don't know why.. or how.. Dallas traded back to 10 to get him

[@AreYouFNQRAZII]

Finally😢

[@turfdome2075]

Don't ever compare him to LT it's others then it's Lawerence Taylor

[@neilparmar5705]

Hope he stays with us a long time

[@danr543]

I kind of have to disagree with you here Alex. Nick Bosa is dominating right now

[@C3N-214]

Is he dominating multiple positions? Then you missed the point

Imagine being a Giants fans knowing u passed up Micah Parson and Rashawn Slater n possibly Justin Fields {if he figures it out} for Kadarius Toney who is current completely out of the rotation right now ‼️Damn Dave Gentleman really fucked this entire roster in every way besides selecting Andrew Thomas I feel bad for giants fans 💯

I'll take the liberty a speak for Cowboys fans. We thank you. lol

[@bishlap]

GIANTS fan here... only thing between us/G-MEN and Playoffs/Super Bowl is the gat damn Cowboys... whom we can't seem to beat. We could switch QB's and still lose.

[@MikeFights]

Can laugh me out of the room if you want, but if he keeps this up, there may be a legitimate conversation to be had about MVP, Allen seems to be a clear front runner but in terms of a players effect on their whole team, Micah is right there. Scary.

[@Mekhami]

Micah is legitimately the only defensive player I can think of who can actually make a play for MVP. If the Cowboys win the division, and Parsons is playing at this rate, I genuinely think he'll have earned it.

[@jkalanphotography9398]

as a football fan he's fun to watch and so so good. As an eagles fan I hope this is a fluke year, lol

[@DC4EVA]

Parsons is collins daddy!!! Paesons will have a unreal years this upcomimg season! He is deff putting in the work,his technical skills will show Improvement!!

[@pskully57]

If you watch college football, you can see many players mimicking him, and many quarterbacks running for their lives.

[@Phenomanation24]

The only reason I believe Micah dropped in the draft was because he opted out of the Covid season and it was just recency bias

[@BuffaloWarrior7]

Any chance we can get a break down of how the Eagle's effectively handled the threat from Parsons

[@miraculousedward6990]

Eagles didn’t handle it so well he’s a Big Reason the Cowboys came back in the half If QB2 didn’t throw 2 more picks Dallas wins that game

[@mikethaxton4935]

Yeah it got your QB sacked 4 times . Triple teaming him is begging your QB to get knocked out of the game. The same plan was used on Charles Haley during the dynasty years until they realized the QB was getting killed by Lett , Tolbert and company

[@TheAutisticTrucker]

He better win because it's the only way the Cowboys are gonna win anything in February.

[@deccwith2cs]

Maybe... I'm still taking nick bosa

[@rodolfo4379]

micah gets held so much - and it rarely gets called. But, I think it is because hes so fast the refs dont see it

[@omalley5196]

Im not the most articulate person alive so I'll say it the best I can, this dude is good!!!! Nope, that's no enough, this dude is F-ing terrific!!! And I hate the cowboys!

[@jesuscacho3314]

HEREEEEEE

[@derekwebb7577]

Nick Bosa says hello.

[@MrCurodd]

Also fair to point out that if they called holding correctly he would get 5 calls per game. Somehow refs just look past the holding on Parsons on a different level.

[@eduardofunez5574]

Yes sir

Yes sir Ed!

[@chuck430]

honest question, how is he against the run?

[@AlexRollinsNFL]

He's great against the run, he's a freaking rock

[@Mhmm_sure]

Ok ok I know there’s “a hold on every play” or whatever… but watch every parsons 1 v 1 pass rush that doesn’t end in a sack and it is gotta be 75% holds haha.
