"So how does the trade stack up after the first six weeks? A Tale Of Two Franchises The Green Bay Packers are 3-1-1. The Dallas Cowboys are 2-3-1. Clearly it is the best of times for one, the worst of times for the other. And there's your obligatory classical literature reference for the season. The tie game coming, of course, against each other at the end of September."
"Aside from that wild 40-40 overtime tie against Dallas, the Packers have only allowed 62 total points in its other four games this year. Parsons has 2.5 sacks, 11 tackles, one tackle for a loss, and eight quarterback hits in five games. He did not start the season-opener, a 27-13 win over the Lions. While Parsons is behind his usual pace in sacks and tackles this year, he is clearly drawing a lot of attention and freeing up his new teammates."
Jerry Jones traded Micah Parsons to the Green Bay Packers one week before the season opener, acquiring defensive tackle Kenny Clark and two first-round picks in return. After six weeks the Packers are 3-1-1 while the Cowboys are 2-3-1, giving Green Bay the advantage in the NFC North race and overall standings. The Packers' defense has been stingy aside from the 40-40 tie, allowing only 62 points in four other games. Parsons has 2.5 sacks, 11 tackles, one TFL and eight QB hits in five games, drawing attention and helping teammates. Green Bay has 12 sacks to Dallas's 10. Jones's goal to improve run defense with Clark remains unproven.
