Micah Parsons isn’t holding back when it comes to defending his Cowboys.

The elite pass-rusher didn’t mince words on his podcast, The Edge with Micah Parsons as he lashed out at critics of the Cowboys and their quarterback.

Parsons argued that the same level of scrutiny should apply to all NFL teams, including the rival Eagles, who suffered their first loss of the season against the Jets last week.

“People love to bash Dak Prescott, but they don’t bring that same energy for the Eagles,” Parsons stated on Tuesday, following the Cowboys win over Chargers on Week 6.

Prescott had a solid game, tallying 314 total yards, 2 touchdowns, and a solid 109.3 passer rating.

Parsons didn’t stop there, raising questions about the media’s treatment of other teams, like the 49ers, who might receive more favorable coverage.

The linebacker expressed his frustration, asserting that the 4-2 Cowboys don’t receive the same allowances as some other top teams in the league.

“Why do people keep saying we’re just a bunch of scrubs who don’t belong on the field, while they make excuses for other teams?” Parsons wondered. “If you just hate Cowboys Nation, just come out and say it. I’m tired of people trashing my quarterback and my team, and that’s why I had nothing to say to the media this week.”

Parsons has a lot to say each week on his podcast, including picking an NFL players superteam for the 2028 Olympics flag football event.

The reason so many people listen to his podcast is because he’s a big star on a big team.. naturally playing for the Cowboys draws a lot of media coverage.

And that’s just what it is, people love to talk about the Cowboys, and that comes with good coverage and bad coverage.
