If the Dallas Cowboys win the final three games of the regular season and the Washington Commanders lose their last three games <em>and<\/em> the Seahawks, Falcons, Cardinals and 49ers all finish with less than nine wins, <em>then<\/em> Dallas will make the playoffs. While that might seem a touch unrealistic, the Cowboys are all in because they\u2019re not tankers. They\u2019re going to eat all the Ws as if they were tasty little critters.<\/p>\n<p>Whether or not the team reaches the postseason, Micah Parsons has decided he wants to spend his entire career with Jerry Jones and the Cowboys. And he\u2019s hoping to make a long-term extension happen sooner rather than later.<\/p>\n<p>Parsons would like to get his deal done prior to the start of free agency, per Todd Archer of ESPN. \u201cI\u2019m going to try and work with them as much as possible to help them attack free agency\u2026 I want to be back with this team. This offseason, I want to be here. I want to get these guys right. I want to take big steps,\u201d Parsons explained.<\/p>\n<p>The fourth-year linebacker has already told Dallas that he\u2019s willing to take a pay cut so the team can use the extra cash to bring players back and sign free agents. Parsons would rather make a bit less money if it means playing on a better team.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, any deal would actually be a raise as the Cowboys picked up the defender\u2019s fifth-year option for 2025, which would pay him $21.4 million. On the other hand, a new contract before year five is a foregone conclusion so the Cowboys will save some money working out a long-term extension with Parsons this offseason. And the team will have even more cash freed up as he\u2019s not insisting on becoming the highest paid defender in football.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>How quickly can the Cowboys get a deal done with Micah Parsons?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<div><center><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Micah-Parsons_8c8869.jpg\" alt=\"Cowboys\u2019 Micah Parsons reveals preferred timing of contract extension\" \/><\/center>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>It sounds like a good deal for Dallas but it only makes sense if the Cowboys want Parsons. And according to Jerry Jones, they absolutely do. Jones has repeatedly shot down trade rumors surrounding the All-Pro. Stephen Jones is in full agreement with Jerry (shocking).<\/p>\n<p>However, Stephen, the Cowboys\u2019 executive vice president and CEO, has also said it will be a quiet offseason as the team is strapped for cash. And he made that statement <em>after<\/em> Parsons went public with his offer to take less money. Perhaps it\u2019s just a negotiating tactic but a quiet offseason seems to be the exact opposite of what Parsons wants out of the team.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to Parsons, the Cowboys must make a decision on Mike McCarthy. The veteran coach is in the final year of his five-year contract with Dallas. Jones doubled down on not firing McCarthy this season but that\u2019s not the same as bringing him back for another five years.<\/p>\n<p>Dallas will host the 8-6 Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday night in Week 16. It will be the first of three must-win &amp; wish games to close out the year. If the Cowboys lose, they can get a jump on those quiet offseason plans.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u2019s pretty simple.
