Miami Dolphins Head Coach Mike McDaniel praised Dallas Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons, stating he is one of the best players in the NFL at any position and adding, “I don't think it's debatable.” However, Parsons faced a controversial call during a game where he was penalized for roughing the passer after hitting Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa from the back, leading to a first and goal at the Dallas 4-yard line. The penalty, which Parsons and others criticized as a bad penalty, resulted in the Cowboys giving up a touchdown and has been described as game-changing. Parsons was visibly upset about the call, with some suggesting that the NFL may be unfairly targeting him. The penalties have been a point of contention, with Parsons expressing his frustration over what he considers 'mind-blowing' decisions by the referees.
