Micah Parsons Offers Blunt Explanation for Cowboys’ Road Struggles

The Cowboys’ struggles on the road continued Sunday when the team looked completely outclassed by the Bills in a blowout loss. Dallas lost 31–10, and after the game, star linebacker Micah Parsons ripped his team for coming up short yet again when not playing at home. 

“Honestly, it’s unacceptable at this point,” Parsons told reporters after the game. “There’s no excuse for it. It’s mind-boggling and I don’t understand why we’re not playing well, and why we’re not coming together on the road. We’ve something we need to look at and get better at, because we’re back on the road next week.”

The loss dropped Dallas to 10–4 on the year, including a 3–4 record on the road. The team’s only wins away from AT&T Stadium this year have come in a Week 1 annihilation of a hapless Giants squad, a narrow win over the Chargers and win over the Panthers, who just won their second game of the year Sunday. None of those teams are poised to reach the postseason.
