Micah Parsons just made an already bad Dallas Cowboys season even worse with his postgame comments
The Dallas Cowboys edge rusher spent some time after the game throwing some shade at his head coach, Mike McCarthy after the team got blown out by the Philadelphia Eagles at AT&T Stadium.
After the game, Parsons was asked about head coach Mike McCarthy’s job security, and he stated, “That’s above my pay grade.”
Mike can leave and go wherever he wants,” Parsons said. “The guys I kind of feel bad for are guys like Zack Martin, who might be on their last year or on their way out, because that’s who I wanted to hold the trophy for. You want to win games and do great things with those types of legends who put in more time and work than Mike McCarthy ever did.
“Those are the kind of guys that I have so much sympathy and hurt for.”
Damien Woody and Rex Ryan couldn’t believe what Micah Parsons was saying

Bro, you’ve been missing all these games with the injury… that’s what’s going on with all these podcast boys out here in the locker room.” pic.twitter.com/WRQZrQanc7

“I’ve never heard anyone say anything remotely like that after a game,” Woody said. “Who the hell Micah Parsons think he is talking like that after a game? Bro, you’ve been missing all these games with the injury, and last I checked, the head coach is a Super Bowl-winning coach.
And I know the season hasn’t gone the way that everyone has expected it to go and all that, but for you to sit there in the locker after your team gets pummeled, and to just undress your head coach in that manner? See, that’s what’s going on with all these podcast boys out here in the locker room … They’re going to spout and say all this type of stuff. There used to be a time when there’s a little bit of respect, a little lil decorum in the locker room, because at the end of the day, it was about we. We didn’t do enough.”
Woody kept it going: “All y’all got your asses kicked,” Woody said. “Okay, you gonna go out here and talk about your head coach based on your head coach not working, not doing anything to try to prepare … I just think it’s a bunch of BS, man, I really do.
We can sit here and laugh and all that stuff, type of stuff, and be in shock. But that’s disrespectful with what Micah Parsons did to Mike McCarthy in that situation. Because I know, again, it’s not the results that Mike McCarthy wants, but I know that man is busting his ass every single day to try to go out there and get a win, and to hear one of your star players come out there and say that? Come on, man, like I can’t ride with that.”
Next up was former head coach Rex Ryan who got so pissed off at Micah Parsons that he cursed on live teelvision.
“Why are you piling on?,” Ryan said. “Dead man walking? Yeah, he is. But you know what? He’s professional as hell. He hasn’t once blamed a damn player, ever. It’s bull—-.”

In a challenging return to the field for star pass rusher Micah Parsons, the Dallas Cowboys fell to the Philadelphia Eagles 34-6 at AT&T Stadium. This was the team’s fifth consecutive home game trailing by 20 or more, dating back to their shocking wild card loss to the Green Bay Packers last season.
Everything has gone downhill for the team ever since.
Should Micah Parsons Apologize To Mike McCarthy?
All professional teams know that personal things need to stay within, or all hell could break loose.
Amid a tough year, Micah Parsons made things egregiously worse with his harsh comments about head coach Mike McCarthy.
The best thing he could do is apologize for his words or prepare for the 2024 season to get even worse.
The Cowboys are down but surely not out if they come together as one to make a playoff run.
