INGLEWOOD, Calif. — Micah Parsons sat at his locker Sunday, the wreckage he wrought complete. A song from rappers The Game and 50 Cent blasted about 15 feet...
senior defensive assistant George Edwards, who Parsons considers a father figure, repeatedly checked on him to make sure he could. They spoke at length on the sideline minutes before the second half began.The Cowboys linebacker pushed through pain to help
. Parsons recorded two sacks for the third time in five games. His two sacks Sunday and a third-down quarterback pressure were all second-half drive killers, including a strip-sack with less than two minutes remaining to ice the result.“I really didn’t think it was hard,” Parsons said. “When you think about the circumstances of the game, the team needed me. You just got to fight through some things.”“It’s just the heart in me,” Parsons added.
Good things like the Cowboys carrying a four-game win streak into Philadelphia where the undefeated Eagles await next Sunday. Good things like the Cowboys having yet to allow multiple touchdowns in a single game this year; wide receiver Cooper Kupp’s 75-yard catch-and-run past cornerback Trevon Diggs was the Rams’ only end-zone visit.A lot can be learned about a player based on how he handles in-game adversity such as an injury.
Seven minutes into the third quarter, the Cowboys defense prepared to take the field for the first time of the second half.Parsons eventually rotated in for the Rams’ first third-down conversion attempt. After it was successful, he was called back to the sideline. The Rams would convert another third down that drive. On their third attempt, Parsons dropped quarterback Matthew Stafford for an 11-yard loss from left defensive end.
Cowboys defensive end DeMarcus Lawrence exited early in the fourth quarter for precautionary reasons upon colliding with rookie defensive end Sam Williams. On the very next snap, a third-and-3, Parsons pressured Stafford to force an errant throw and incompletion.“The kid’s a beast, bro,” defensive tackle Trysten Hill said of Parsons. “I don’t know what else to say. He does that off a bad groin. I mean, two sacks, a sack-fumble? You can’t draw it up any better than that, really.
