The Dallas Cowboys began the 2025 season of season 0-1 after falling to the Philadelphia Eagles, and each football fan wanted to listen to the thoughts of the owner Jerry Jones about his defense without Micah Parsons for the first time.

While Parsons prepares for his new role as the edge corridor of the Green Bay Packers after the shocking exchange of the cowboys, Dallas gave 24 points in his defeat against the Eagles on Thursday night.

Jones spoke with the media members after the game in Lincoln Financial Field, where he was asked if he believes that the team lost Parsons out there. Jones was not so direct with his answer.

“Well, every time you have a great player and don't have it in the field,” Jones replied. “But I was specifically seeing some of the types that could collect the slack. No. 54 had a really significant impact on his offense.

“In general, this group was adjusted and made the adjustments. We advanced in the second half in defense …”

Jones referred to Sam Williams, who finished the game with five cups and was seen having a great impact on the second half chasing the Marshal of the Eagles, Jalen Hurts, who seemed to run in the first half.

Hurts ran for two TouchDowns in the first half, and the cowboys met 21-20 after 2024 offensive player of the year Saquon Barkley scored his first TouchDown of the season at the end of the second quarter. But the defense of the cowboys hindered the offensive of the Eagles in the second half, keeping them in just three points.

However, Jones saw how Campo Dak Prescott tried to push the field in the field to recover the advantage of the cowboys, but Ceedee Lamb, generally safe, had some problems of falling in the fourth quarter that hurt the team badly at the end.

However, the cowboys were able to hurt on the ground for a sack, since Marshawn Knealand made it possible in the second half. Kenny Clark, the Tackle All-Pro that was part of Parsons' trade, was also present at that play.

Clark finished the game with two solo tacle and three combined in his debut in the cowboys.
