It’s officially “Micah Week” in Philly. The Eagles know the feeling all too well. Every time Micah Parsons lines up across them, chaos follows. And guess what, Jalen Hurts and co. aren’t taking this one lightly.

Right now, the Packers’ defense is no joke. They’re giving up just 286 yards a game, sitting fifth-best in the league. They’ve piled up 22 sacks already, and Parsons is leading that charge. So Eagles tackle Jordan Mailata knows how big of a headache Parsons can be.
“He opens up a lot of opportunities for other guys. We’ve faced Micah a lot of times (from when Parsons played with Dallas), so we know what kind of player he is, man, and we know the kind of disruption he can present. We have never made it about anybody else. It’s about us and doing what we can do to make sure that he does not disrupt our game. The coaches have to put us in those positions, but we have to go out and execute.”

And yes, Parsons has always been a problem for Jalen Hurts and his crew. The edge rusher faced the Eagles seven times back when he was with the Cowboys. So, with 5 sacks, he’s ready for Hurts. And Hurts knows what’s waiting for him.
“That was a really good defense already last year,” Jalen Hurts said Thursday. “So, adding Micah to the mix makes them that much more of a problem.”

He’s not wrong. The Packers already had one of the top defensive units in the league. With Parsons fully unleashed, it’s bound to get wild. And he is making sure his opponents know that.

Micah Parsons is ready for a dogfight on MNF
While both teams sit near the top of the NFC, this matchup feels bigger than just another Monday night game. Green Bay walks into Philly with a 5-2-1 record, holding firm control of the NFC North. Meanwhile, the Eagles come in at 6-2, tied for the best mark in the conference.
The stage is set, the lights are bright, and everyone knows what’s on the line. And Micah Parsons? He’s ready for it. And he also made it clear: this isn’t just another game. For him, it’s about identity and pride.
“It’s going to be a very respectful and disrespectful game. It’s going to be a dogfight.”

Parsons knows the Birds are built tough, but he’s ready to test that toughness in front of the whole league. And he’s got the numbers to back it up.
Parsons has been a wrecking ball since arriving in Green Bay. In just a few games, he’s stacked up 43 quarterback pressures and seven sacks. Only four edge rushers across the NFL can say they’ve done more.
But it’s not just about him anymore. Parsons’ presence has reshaped this Packers defense. So, his ability to move around, create mismatches, and draw double teams has lifted the entire unit. Now, all that’s left is to see how that energy translates when the lights hit Lincoln Financial Field.
