Roach story by Micah Parsons
The Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons knows the caliber of Aaron Rodgers and Co. So his strategy is to bury the opponent without giving them a chance to bounce back. And he learned that through one of his grandmother’s stories.

Talking to Yahoo Sports, Parsons narrated the story he takes a great life lesson from.“My grandma told me: If you see a roach, and it’s fooling around, do you step on it and bury it or do you let it rebuild and get back to life?” Parsons told Yahoo Sports. “You step on it. I live life with no remorse. You can’t have no remorse in this game [or] it turns up to bite you,” Parsons said.
So even if Aaron Rodgers has thrown as many interceptions in the last two games as he had the entire last season, the Cowboys won’t take him lightly.

Aaron Rodgers had a particularly bad game as the last year’s MVP threw three interceptions in the game. The Lions won 15-9.
