Parson and Neal are basically the starting linebackers.

What a waste of two high draft picks on Drop Foot and Glass Neck. :stopitslime:

And watch the dumbass Joneses not get any trade value off these two busts.

Cowboys' Jaylon Smith shakes off criticism like 'Michael Jordan, LeBron James'

Smith, 26, has endured his share of the criticism because of the way the Dallas defense performed last season, finishing 28th in yards per game and allowing a franchise-record 473 points. He frustrated those inside and outside the organization with poorly-timed celebrations when the unit was performing badly. He raised eyebrows by switching from No. 54 to No. 9 this offseason, forking over close to $500,000 to make the switch when it would not have cost him anything to do so in 2022.

"I mean, I don't care who you are, you're going to have criticism," Smith said. "Michael Jordan had criticism. LeBron James, some of the best players in the world have criticism. That's just a part of the game. But you got to control what you can control. And for me, it's just focused on my development and becoming a better player."

Some people will view that as comparing himself to Jordan and James. Others will see it as context as to how to brush off criticism.

"Optics is out there, especially with the age of social media and things of that nature," Smith said. "Being a warrior, it's all about the only thing that matters is what you do next. Regardless of injury, where I should have been, how I played a year ago, missing the playoffs the last couple of years, none of that matters. It's about right now, so that's where my focus is."

He doesn't even realize if MJ or Lebron was on this team all we'd see is

I need to see Dorance Armstrong and Bradlee Anae dominate today, otherwise, I'm going to continue to be skeptical about the hype around them. :unimpressed:
