Micah Parsons: “We played well enough to beat the Eagles”
The Cowboys suffered their third loss of the season after being defeated 23-28 by the Eagles this Sunday. Without a doubt, the result was not what Dallas expected, but they looked like a team capable of fighting against the elite of the National Conference and the taste of it was pleasant for the team, or so LB Micah Parsons suggested. who affirms that after going head to head against Philadelphia, leaders of the NFC East, they trust themselves more than ever.
“We know we played well enough to win that game,” Parsons said, via The Athletic. “But we didn’t do it. That way happens. Sometimes you play well enough and good enough isn’t good enough. That is the reality of the game. I feel like we have even more confidence now. I feel like everyone gave us up and everyone was praising the Eagles. Obviously, we gave them the best. I’m not even going to add fuel to the fire. We will see you again in four weeks,” he concluded.
After this result, the Eagles now have a 2.5-game advantage over the Cowboys in the NFC East fight, so it seems difficult for Dallas to close this difference in this second half of the championship. However, facing Philadelphia twice a season helps Parsons and company have a great idea of what lies ahead in the postseason if they manage to qualify, as everything would indicate unless a catastrophe occurs.

Jonathan Gannon: “Kyler Murray will start on Sunday”
The Cardinals were shut out this Sunday by the Browns, being their eighth loss of the year and now they are already the worst team in the league. In the event, rookie QB Clayton Tune finished 11 of 20 for 58 yards, 0 TD and 2 INT in his first game as a starter in the NFL, but sadly for him, it could have been his last. HC Jonathan Gannon confirmed this Monday that, “if the week goes well,” QB1 Kyler Murray will return for Week 10 against the Falcons.
“The plan for the quarterback this week: Kyler will continue to improve,” Gannon mentioned, via a video from PHNX Cardinals. “He will take the reps with the first team and, if the week goes well, he will start on Sunday. Satisfied with where you are now. We will see how the week goes,” concluded Gannon about a Murray who has not played in 329 days, since he suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee, undergoing surgery on January 3.
Now, Murray, a 26-year-old veteran, is finally ready to be activated from Injured Reserve, and although it is too late to save the Cardinals who have a 1-8 record, this second half of the season will serve him well. Arizona to evaluate whether Murray will continue to be their franchise quarterback or if they will take advantage of their two first-round picks in the 2024 NFL Draft to take another quarterback they consider worthy of replacing Murray in the immediate future.

Mac Jones: “The results are not there, it stinks, there are no excuses”
The Patriots suffered their seventh loss of the season this Sunday and established themselves as the worst team in the AFC, all after falling 20-17 against the Commanders. However, the scenario could have been different: New England had a final offensive series with which they could come back in the game, but QB Mac Jones was intercepted after the ball bounced off WR JuJu Smith-Schuster. Without a doubt, it is now difficult for Jones to continue trusting this team’s offensive system.
“It’s complicated,” Jones said. “The most important thing, as they say, is to maintain confidence in yourself. When you do everything you can every day, you should have no regrets. I have no excuses. I have to do things better, but I will always work hard and put in the hours, that’s all I can do, right? Motivate the people around me to do it too. I will always be the same person. Obviously, as they say, the results are not there at this time. Stinks. There are no excuses”.
Jones, 25, completed 24 of 44 passes for 220 yards, 1 TD and 1 INT. Without a doubt, his numbers are not the best, but it is also true that on multiple occasions he was the victim of several of his receivers who did not make deliveries that looked catchable. Therefore, Jones was also asked if he felt he had to be “too fine” in his passing compared to other passers who have “bigger windows” to make “explosive plays.”
“There are no excuses,” Jones added. “It’s difficult to compare yourself with other people, with other teams. We have a standard here. At the end of the day, we need to live up to that standard and execute to the best of our ability, me as a quarterback and all that. That’s a great point, but at the same time we’ll always focus on ourselves and what we can do better and the things we need to improve, what I need to improve and all that. But yes, that is a good question,” he concluded.

Chargers regret signing JC Jackson
The Chargers made a big move for the 2022 season by signing CB JC Jackson for 5 years and 82.5 million dollars, but what seemed like it would be the right decision, they ended up regretting it: recently, prior to the trade deadline of the current campaign , Jackson was sent to New England for low-round draft picks. Thus, Jackson concluded his stay with Los Angeles with only seven games played, and regret did not take long to come.
More precise, via Kris Rhim of ESPNit was reported this Monday that Chargers GM Tom Telesco felt so bad about acquiring Jackson that at the team’s first defensive backs meeting after the trade was made, Telesco stood in front of the group and apologized. , admitting that signing him had been a mistake, and would have added that continuing to give him opportunities was also a failure because Jackson never showed enough commitment to the team.
Jackson, a 27-year-old veteran, shone with the Patriots between 2018 and 2021, especially in that last campaign when he was named Pro Bowler after leading the league with 23 passes defensed. However, he was never up to par with the Chargers and his stay in that organization was short-lived. Thus, he now finds himself back in the team that saw him become a star and, although in five games with New England in 2023 he has not played well, he hopes to revive his career gradually.
