Star Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons echoed the defiant attitude of his quarterback Dak Prescott on The Edge podcast Monday, with Dallas’ poor start to the 2024 NFL season sparking nationwide skepticism and visible conflicts within the squad
A blockbuster matchup between two 2023 division champions began disastrously for Dallas, relying on lengthy 51-and 65-yard field goals from Brandon Aubrey for its only points through three quarters of play, as Baltimore forged a dominant 28-6 lead. The Cowboys engineered a dramatic fourth-quarter comeback, scoring 19 points in the final nine minutes as Prescott neared 400 passing yards on the afternoon, but Baltimore ultimately kneeled out a thrilling 28-25 victory.
Sunday’s loss dropped the Cowboys to 1-2 on the young season, as post-game video from AT&T Stadium capturing a fan directing disparaging remarks toward Prescott as he headed to the locker room. The veteran Cowboys quarterback dismissed the comments, saying “hop off if you want to,” and Parsons reiterated his complete confidence in Prescott.Cowboys’ Micah Parsons includes Dak Prescott on his list of end-of-season NFL awards
“He said the same thing to the guys today, ‘Jump off if you want to,’” Parsons said. “I have full belief in this guy. I know what he’s been through. Through the injuries, the triumphs, the trials and tribulations, he’s going to overcome everything. I think he’s so much bigger than what this is and he’s going to get us to where we need to go.”
