Where would Andy Murray rank among 21st-century icons of men's tennis? Fourth, most likely, behind Novak Djokovic, Roger Federer, and Rafael Nadal. But not No. 2 in any real way, which is why Los Angeles Rams edge rusher Myles Garrett telling Green Bay Packers edge rusher Micah Parsons that Parsons is the "Andy Murray" of football is just odd.<\/p>\n

In fact, the whole banter between Garrett and Parsons was strange, though Garrett did appear to show some depth of knowledge of tennis,<\/a> so that was good. Even Parsons at least knew who Nadal was.<\/p>\n

The conversation happened on an episode<\/a> of "Iron Sharpens Iron," and unfolds with the two football players in a weight room, and Garrett telling Parsons, "You're going to be the football equivalent of Andy Murray, like outside looking in. No. 2, No. 3. They're going to be like, 'He was amazing. It's just a shame he had to go against these<\/em> guys.'"<\/p>\n

At which time Parsons claims to be "Rafa Nadal" and tells Garrett that the Rams player could be Federer as Garrett watches Parsons surpass him in their chosen profession. At least, tennis fans can likely agree that the construction of the points the players were making had logic.<\/p>\n

Still, Garrett should have said that Parsons was Nadal and that he was Djokovic, at least in claiming to achieve the most success. One assumes that the debate was about how many sacks each could have in their careers (Garrett currently has 125.5 and Parsons has 52.5, but Garrett has played four more seasons). <\/p>\n

However the conversation began or the reason for it, at least tennis has made an impression on both football players. Stacking sacks against, presumably, Grand Slam titles does make some sense. The point was likely to just have some good-natured smack talk, and that was truly the case.<\/p>\n

As far as Parsons being Murray and being No. 2, that doesn't make sense. After all, as great as Murray was, he was nowhere near as elite as the Big 3, finishing with three major titles while the others had at least 20.<\/p>\n

Garrett called Parsons “the Andy Murray of pass rushers” and “an eternal number 2” \ud83d\ude2d\ud83d\ude2d\ud83d\ude2d\ud83d\ude2d\ud83d\ude2d pic.twitter.com\/tymau5PAm4<\/a><\/p>\n

Breaking that down to an NFL season would be like Myles Garrett having 20 sacks and Micah Parsons having, well…three. The statistical comparison doesn't hold up. <\/p>\n

One might wonder how Murray feels about the situation<\/a>. If he has heard the episode of the series, he probably laughed it off. The realistic hope, though, is that neither Garrett nor Parsons has to go through as many gruelling injuries as Murray did. Ultimately, that limited the Brit's career. Otherwise, he might have had five Grand Slam wins (his era was simply too difficult). <\/p>\n
