Micah Parsons' first month with the Green Bay Packers reinvigorated the confidence of the franchise and its fanbase. For a player in rare air already with his production through four seasons matching the likes of Reggie White, it must be terrifying for opposing offenses to realize that Parsons is playing at an even higher level in Year 5.
Parsons' impact has already thrust the young Packers’ defense into the conversation of best in the NFL. The outcome of Sunday night’s game against Parsons’ former Dallas Cowboys dampened that outlook a bit, but their early work against the Detroit Lions and Washington Commanders did display what this defense is capable of when it’s firing on all cylinders.
