Dallas Cowboys' ‘Statement Game!’ Do Dak Prescott & Micah Parsons Disagree? FISH PODCAST
ARLINGTON - The Dallas Cowboys play host to the Seattle Seahawks at home on "Thursday Night Football'' from AT&T Stadium here in Arlington with a couple of big numbers staring them in the face - big numbers that can't be ignored. ...
If you're Micah Parsons.
Or ... Big numbers that can be ignored ...
If you're Dak Prescott.
Don't misunderstand; The team leaders on defense and offense, respectively, are embroiled in some locker room debate over the "They haven't played anybody argument.''
It's just that they have different ways of seeing what is behind their 8-3 team ... and it's just that they have different ways of viewing the road ahead.
This Seattle game triggers a tough five-game stretch that after tonight sees the Philadelphia Eagles, Buffalo Bills, Miami Dolphins, and Detroit Lions all on the schedule.
The combined record of the playoff-caliber quintet is a daunting 37-18. The combined record of the teams Dallas has built its 8-3 record upon is 43-59.
Said Dak: "The records haven't been great. (But) I can promise everybody that comes in and that we play, we do get their best shot. ... When you play the Dallas Cowboys, I can promise you the other teams, it's a little bit bigger ...''
"We've won some games in a tough league, but at the end of the day it's about the next game, and right now a good Seattle team is coming in."
Micah's view? “It's a chance,'' he said of the upcoming challenges, "to get some statement wins. We got to start learning how to win on the road and things like that, so we got some good opportunities coming up here ...''
"Opportunities'' to take the "best shot'' of good teams? There is that. "Opportunities'' to learn and grow? There is that, too.
"Opportunities'' to - no matter what the critics say - fortify their own self-confidence by proving they can play with and win the best in the NFL? That part of what we discuss in the FISH PODCAST above, also available in the Fish Report on YouTube below. Enjoy, Cowboys Nation!
