Micah Parsons seemed to overshadow Mike McCarthy after the Cowboys loss to Eagles

The Dallas Cowboys’ 34-6 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles gave fans plenty to think about on Sunday, from the flawed design of AT&T Stadium to the team’s increasingly bleak future.

The Cowboys finished Sunday’s game with 32 net passing yards while Cooper Rush and the offense couldn’t get anything going on the ground or in the air. After losing Dak Prescott for the remainder of the season, the Cowboys may need to take a hard look at themselves in the mirror, with far more questions than answers at this point in the year.

After the brutal loss to Philly, Cowboys star Micah Parsons shared his candid perspective on the team’s coaching in particular.

“Mike (McCarthy) can leave and go wherever he wants,” Parsons said, via Jori Epstein. “Guys I feel a little sorry for are guys like Zack Martin and guys who might be in their senior 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 legends like that who put in more time and work than Mike McCarthy ever did.”

Parsons added that the question of whether Mike McCarthy will coach the Cowboys next year is “above my pay grade.”

It’s worth noting that Parsons’ comments can be interpreted in a number of ways. The All-Pro pass rusher may not have intended to throw shade at his head coach and may have just vented his frustrations after a bad game for the Cowboys.

That said, his comment about wanting to win games for “legends” other than McCarthy seems like a bit of a veiled criticism.

Perhaps Parsons will clarify his comments later this week.
