Virtually nothing went right for Mike Zimmer\u2019s gang on the afternoon, but for star edge rusher\u00a0Micah Parsons, the most disappointing aspect was the effort.<\/p>\n<p>Or the lack thereof.<\/p>\n<p>Parsons did not point the finger at the new Zimmer defense, which had performed so well to open the season in\u00a0Cleveland. Instead, he pointed at his Cowboys teammates.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo me, it had nothing to do with the scheme,\u201d he said\u00a0after the game (interview is at 9:54). \u201cI thought Zim called a pretty good game. \u2026 At the end of the day, that\u2019s life. No play is gonna be a perfect call. But at the end of the day, I just believe we got outplayed. I don\u2019t think\u2014whoever played on that field, everyone didn\u2019t play to 100%. That\u2019s just me being accountable and saying the truth. We all got to play better.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Postgame LIVE: Cowboys OT #NOvsDAL | Dallas Cowboys 2024\" width=\"790\" height=\"444\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/BUCK2WKzV50?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere are some plays I wish I had back. Schematically, things I wish I was in a different position. But, you know what I\u2019m saying, at the end of the day, I believe I will still go out there and do 100 (percent) but I just believe, you know, there\u2019s a lot of BS-ing today.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Cowboys Defense Yielded 432 Yards<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>In all, the Cowboys gave up\u00a0432 yards of offense\u00a0on just 56 plays, a whopping average of 7.7 yards per play. Quarterback\u00a0Derek Carr\u00a0threw just 16 passes and completed 11, but still tallied 243 yards through the air. Running back\u00a0Alvin Kamara\u00a0was the real wrecking ball for New Orleans, as he scored three touchdowns and put up 115 yards on 20 carries.<\/p>\n<p>Last week, the Cowboys allowed only 230 yards to the Browns, the fifth-best total in the league. They allowed only 3.3 yards per play, and took away two interceptions.<\/p>\n<p>Parsons had only three tackles on the day and said that the Saints gave him a different look, where he was not only being chipped by a tight end, but then getting blocked by a back, too. He compared it to being in a maze.<\/p>\n<p>Still, he said, there is no cause for panic from the Cowboys.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe gotta be aggressive, we gotta create penetration,\u201d Parsons said. \u201cAnd do a much better of tackling. I am trying to ride the guys, get everyone to calm down, let\u2019s focus in. We\u2019re here. This is adversity. We need to hit this wall, we need to get better. Don\u2019t shy from it.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Micah Parsons: \u2018It Is so Early\u2019<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Still, to see the Cowboys\u2019 run defense go from allowing 93 yards last week to 190 this week evokes bad memories of the Cowboys\u2019 struggles against the run\u00a0in the 2023 season, when Dallas allowed 170 yards or more three times during the season, and allowed 143 yards rushing in the blowout loss against the Packers in the playoffs.<\/p>\n<p>The Cowboys have changed up their front seven a bit, with\u00a0Mazi Smith\u00a0now manning the nose tackle spot and a new linebacking crew of\u00a0Eric Kendricks\u00a0and\u00a0DeMarvion Overshown. The results are frustratingly familiar.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLast year is last year,\u201d Parsons said. \u201cWe are in a new year this year, it\u2019s a new room I am with, new guys. I would not say I am concerned right now, just because it is so early in the year. We can do so much better. I don\u2019t think a lot of guys played 100%, and we didn\u2019t do our job to the best of our standard and our standard wasn\u2019t held today.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Getty Cowboys DE Micah Parsons By the end of Sunday\u2019s Week 2 home opener, the surprising thing about the\u00a0Cowboys\u00a0having given up 44 points in a\u00a0pasting of a&#8230; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":731,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-730","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nfl"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.4 -
