Last night’s saw the Cowboys establish a franchise record with 166 penalty yards. Logically, everyone was upset, including the coach, and all had harsh words for the officiating standards. Cowboys Linebacker Micah Parsons also shared similar sentiments and believed that they fell victim to some really awful calls. “I feel bad for my guys cause I know some of the penalties were 50/50; some would say really bad calls,” Parsons said.

Parsons further emphasised on the injustice by talking about the aggressiveness in football. “It doesn’t matter. At the end of the day, football is an aggressive game and you’re gonna attack the ball, and you’re gonna play through the ball, and you’re gonna play the defender. End of the day, it’s gonna come to a point and time. Where when are you going to let us truly play?”
