The Green Bay Packers won, but the mood around the Packers’ defense felt different. The Bears came into the game ready to test Micah Parsons, and they did it in the ugliest way possible. As Matt LaFleur argued with the refs on the sideline, fans watched Parsons get grabbed and pulled with no whistle. And after the game, Parsons finally let his emotions spill out.

“I’m immune; I just gotta keep fighting through. I mean, that’s been the definition of my career … The rule book is they gotta be in the chest area, and I’m just not getting grabbed in the chest area,” Parsons said as he could not understand how the Chicago offensive line got away with it.

Micah Parsons looked quiet only because Chicago was hanging onto him all night. In reality, he finished with one tackle and two hits on Caleb Williams. However, the tape told a different story, and everyone in the stadium saw it. Chicago did not block him; they wrestled him.

One play in particular fired up the entire stadium. In the fourth quarter, during a crucial drive, Darnell Wright wrapped Parsons around the head and neck. Parsons still bent the edge but got pulled past Williams like he was in a headlock. Williams escaped and hit a big throw for a first down. The reaction inside the bowl was instant rage.

And the highlights added fuel. The NFL posted the highlight online, and it showed Parsons on his knees asking for a flag as Williams threw the ball. He wasn’t the only one confused. After the game, Matt LaFleur carefully expressed his displeasure. And now the conversation is loud.
