Eagles Already Bracing for “Nightmare” Micah Parsons Ahead of Packers Showdown

The Philadelphia Eagles might be enjoying their well-earned bye week after a win over the New York Giants, but inside the film room, the focus has already shifted — to Lambeau Field, where Micah Parsons awaits.
This time, Parsons isn’t wearing a Cowboys jersey. The three-time All-Pro defensive star was shockingly traded to the Packers in August after contract talks stalled in Dallas. With 52.5 career sacks and five against Philadelphia alone, Parsons has long been a nightmare for the Eagles’ offense.

Eagles offensive coordinator Kevin Patullo summed up the challenge: “He’s so dynamic in everything that he does. And they move him around so much that you always have to account for him.”

Since joining Green Bay, Parsons has been nothing short of dominant. He’s currently Pro Football Focus’ highest-graded edge rusher, tallying 42 quarterback pressures — including 27 hurries, 8 hits, and 7 sacks. His impact has been instrumental in Green Bay’s 5-1-1 start and their climb to the league’s third-best Super Bowl odds (+750).

As the Eagles rest and regroup, Nov. 10 looms large — a “Monday Night Football” showdown at Lambeau Field that could define both teams’ seasons. It’s more than just another game; it’s a statement opportunity for two NFC powerhouses — and a reunion with a familiar menace now wearing green and gold.

Analyst Skip Bayless Posts Video Criticizing Coach Schottenheimer "It's Disgraceful That Cowboys Lost to Broncos - You Should Resign"
Analyst Skip Bayless blasts Dallas Cowboys offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer after a 44-24 defeat by the Broncos. He accuses Schottenheimer of weak play-calling and says he should step down. 1. A Humiliating Loss for the Cowboys The Dallas Cowboys suffered a major defeat at the hands of the Denver Broncos by a score of 44-24, continuing a losing streak that now ties their longest ever vs. Denver.From the outset, discipline was missing—an interception near the goal line, a false start that turned a first-and-goal at the 1 into third-and-goal at the 6. The problems were glaring.  2. Skip Bayless’ Explosive Critique On his YouTube show, Skip Bayless didn’t hold back: “Schotty, you can’t be shtty… that’s who you are. This was shtty play-calling. Change the O to I and you got it.”He accused Brian Schottenheimer of abandoning the strong, physical style the Cowboys were expected to play—calling it a “meat and potatoes” offense from the past—but instead of execution, they got poor calls and lackadaisical performance. 3. The Impact of the Team's Mistakes Schottenheimer admitted post-game that the team failed to dominate the line of scrimmage and that red-zone failures hurt them badly.The Broncos took advantage of a weakened Dallas defense (due to injuries) to rush for 157 yards and force four touchdowns from the Cowboys’ QB. Bayless remarked he has “never seen a worse defense than the one the Cowboys put on the field today.” 4. Why the Call to Resign? Bayless contends that at this level, such a performance is unforgivable, especially for a coach with Schottenheimer’s pedigree. He asserted: The play-calling was below standard. Discipline and identity were missing. Leadership should accept responsibility when execution fails repeatedly.In his view, the only way forward for Dallas is a fresh start at the offensive coordinator position. 5. What Comes Next for the Cowboys? With a record now concerning and morale shaken, the Cowboys face a crucial home game against the Arizona Cardinals.For Schottenheimer, the upcoming weeks will be deeply scrutinised—can he reverse course and salvage the season? Or will Bayless’s call for resignation gain real traction?
