It seems as though the rivalry between the Dallas Cowboys and San Francisco 49ers has been renewed. Two of the most storied franchises in NFL history, these teams have been a part of some of the most heated battles in NFL history, including three straight meetings in the NFC Championship Game from 1992-1994. Fast forward to the present day, and two of the team’s biggest stars are talking trash to one another.
Cowboys All-Pro linebacker Micah Parsons made it clear that he is hoping for a rematch and a chance to avenge the 42-10 loss the Cowboys endured on Sunday Night Football. What drew the line for Parsons was when 49ers tight end George Kittle flaunted a shirt that read “F— Dallas” after scoring one of his three touchdowns in the 49ers’ blowout victory.
“I just feel like he’s making it way more personal than it had to be,” Parsons said on his podcast series titled The Edge with Micah Parsons. “Kittle’s my guy, but I’m just going to say this: Laugh now, cry later. We got something for that. Just trust.” Parsons added.
It seems as though Parsons’ comments rubbed 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel the wrong way, who addressed the matter on the Up & Adams Show earlier this week. “It was already personal before the game started, and now, 42-10, I don’t think you want to see us again… It might be a little worse.”
Hopefully, we get to see these two teams meet again down the road with even more at stake. It could make for one of the more exciting atmospheres the NFL has to offer.
