NFC Insights: Micah Parsons, Cowboys, Eagles, and Giants
Cowboys
- Cowboys DE Micah Parsons discussed what it will take to improve the team’s performance in Dallas: “Firstly, we need to prioritize getting healthy. We have three or four starters who won’t be back until mid-next season. It’s essential to plan for that and continue building our chemistry.” (Jon Machota)
- Cowboys QB Dak Prescott provided insights on his recovery from hamstring surgery: “I’ve gained some strength and started to use it more. I’d say in a few weeks, maybe a month, I’ll be back to running. I’ve been able to get on the bike, so I’m definitely making progress.” (Todd Archer)
Eagles
- Eagles RB Saquon Barkley achieved a remarkable milestone, becoming the ninth player in NFL history to rush for 2,000 yards in a season. He is currently just 101 yards away from breaking Eric Dickerson‘s record for the most rushing yards in a single season.
- Barkley shared his thoughts on reaching Dickerson’s record next week: “While I’m not explicitly chasing the record, I’m not nervous about it either. Our team goals are more significant. Whether we play next week or take a rest, I’m perfectly fine with that. My focus isn’t solely on breaking a record; I aspire to achieve something extraordinary with this team.” (Mike Garafolo)
- On the Eagles’ offensive line, Barkley stated: “At the end of the day, my name may be associated with 2,000 yards, but none of that is possible without the amazing work of my teammates. We aimed for something special, and they did all the hard work; I just followed their lead.” (James Palmer)
Giants
- Giants QB Drew Lock expressed his excitement after the team’s significant victory over the Colts, where he threw five touchdown passes: “We were really clicking today; we knew we had it in us.” (Dan Salomone)
- Lock praised WR Malik Nabers: “He’s a beast and keeps improving. His understanding of the game is exceptional; he studies corners and executes smartly.” (Salomone)
-
Lock became the fifth player in NFL history to achieve 300 or more passing yards, four or more touchdown passes, a rushing touchdown, and a passer rating of at least 155 in a single game. (NFL345)
- Giants HC Brian Daboll summed up the victory: “It was refreshing to secure a win at home. It felt really good.” (Art Stapleton)
