Micah Parsons lost his first game since joining the Packers on Sunday and the defensive end gave a blunt assessment of what they did to fall 13-10 to the Browns.
The Packers led 10-0 with less than four minutes left in the game, but the Browns kicked a field goal before safety Grant Delpit picked off Packers quarterback Jordan Love and set the offense up inside the 5-yard line. A game-tying touchdown was followed by a Packers drive to set up a 43-yard field goal attempt that was blocked by Browns defensive lineman Shelby Harris. The Browns picked up 16 yards and Andre Szmyt kicked a game-winning field goal as time expired.
“Sometimes, just like today, you s—t the bed ,” Parsons said. “That’s just the reality of it. It happens to the best teams. Even the best Super Bowl champs make mistakes, and they pay for it early. You go back to the history of the champions and who’ve they’ve played and games they should’ve won. It’s just part of the game, it’s just that competitive. It’s that hard to win. It’s hard as hell to win football games. When you win football games, it’s a celebration. But when you lose, it sucks.”
Parsons and the Packers will work to clean up their mess before they face Parsons’ former team in Dallas next Sunday night.
