As the Cowboys' problems continue to mount, Jerry Jones may have no other choice than to trade away Micah Parsons.

Jones, who has been criticized throughout the year over personnel moves — or lack thereof — had NFL execs and talent evaluators scratching their heads over the Cowboys’ decision to give Carolina draft capital for Mingo, a second-year wideout who has 12 receptions for 121 yards this season.

It was Parsons’ words, not his play, that stole the spotlight. Parsons was asked after the game about the job status of head coach Mike McCarthy, which is understandably a topic of interest as the Cowboys fell to 3-6 in McCarthy’s final year of his contract.
