Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons sacks Lions quarterback Jared Goff on Sunday.

The Bears know what they have to do when they get to the line of scrimmage Sunday against the Cowboys.

“Every snap, you’ve got to be aware of where 11 is at,” center Sam Mustipher said.

No. 11 is Micah Parsons, the Cowboys’ all-world linebacker who was drafted one spot below Bears quarterback Justin Fields last year. He’s ranked first in the league in pressures (36), second in sacks (8) and tackles for loss (9), fourth in quarterback hits (14) and fifth in forced fumbles (2).
