Micah Parsons reacts to underdog label before Cowboys vs Eagles opener

Send Push
The NFL season kicks off with a bang as the Dallas Cowboys face the defending champion Philadelphia Eagles . But before the action even begins, Cowboys star Micah Parsons is already making waves. With just four words on Instagram, he lit a fire under fans and sent a clear message to the Eagles that he’s ready to bring the heat.


“Yeah yeah, let’s ball”: Micah Parsons isn’t holding back




In what’s now becoming one of the most talked-about preseason moments, Parsons took to Instagram with a quiet, chilling message. He reposted the Cowboys vs. Eagles schedule graphic with just four words: “Yeah yeah, let’s ball.” No fluff. No fake bravado. Just energy.


The post hit harder than most press conferences. Coming from a former Penn State standout who grew up in Pennsylvania but now bleeds blue and silver, it felt personal. And the timing couldn’t have been better. The Cowboys opened as betting underdogs, but if you ask Parsons, none of that matters.


Dallas is entering 2025 with a revamped playbook under head coach Brian Schottenheimer and a fully healthy roster. On paper, this team has the firepower to punch above expectations. Meanwhile, the Eagles are coming off a rocky offseason, losing key defensive pieces and offensive coordinator Kellen Moore, who left for the Saints. Yet, despite the losses, the Eagles are still getting the “champions’ respect” from oddsmakers and analysts. Parsons, though, isn’t buying the hype.


Contract talks loom, but Parsons is already locked in


While the spotlight stays on the season opener, Parsons has another battle brewing behind the scenes, his contract extension. With four Pro Bowl nods and two All-Pro selections under his belt, he’s on track to become the highest-paid defensive player in NFL history.

The Cowboys haven’t finalized the deal yet, but make no mistake: Parsons’ mindset is already in game mode. His social media statement wasn’t just a callout to Philly, it was a signal to the entire league. He’s ready, and he’s coming for everyone.
On opening night, Micah Parsons won’t just be chasing Jalen Hurts. He’ll be chasing respect, a win, and maybe even a legacy-defining season.
