The Dallas Cowboys started their season with a bang, delivering a resounding 40-0 victory over the New York Giants. The star of the game, Micah Parsons, couldn't contain his excitement and took to X (formerly known as Twitter) to share his elation with the world.
Parsons, a two-time All-Pro and Pro Bowler, led the charge for the Cowboys' defense, which was nothing short of exceptional. After the game, he posted a passionate message calling out the lackluster effort from New York and silencing the doubters of the Cowboys.
“Y’all thought this was a game?! #doomsday”
Parsons and the Cowboys are not to be taken lightly. He even shared some of his favorite social media moments from the game, including a video of a sack created by defensive tackle Osa Odighizuwa, whom Parsons assisted.
Parsons also highlighted a shoutout from Fanatics CEO Michael Rubin and a recap of the ferocious defensive performance by Next Gen Stats. Yet, his most noteworthy reaction was to the incredible defensive stats the Cowboys achieved in the game.
The Cowboys racked up seven sacks, two interceptions (one returned for a touchdown), one blocked field goal returned for another TD, and an astonishing five forced fumbles. Parsons is clearly reveling in their success and is ready to face anyone who doubts the Cowboys' prowess.
As the season kicks off, Dallas is already being labeled as an early Super Bowl contender, and their opening performance unquestionably supports that claim. In fact, according to ESPN, the Cowboys became the first team since the 1999 Steelers to start their season with a road shutout victory of 40 or more points.
Micah Parsons and the Cowboys have set the bar high, leaving no doubt that they mean business this season. It's clear that they are a force to be reckoned with, and their dominating victory has sent shockwaves through the league. The anticipation for their next game is already building, as fans eagerly await another electrifying display of skill and determination.
