For those of you wanting Mike McCarthy to be sacked, I'm writing this thread as a caution to be careful what you wish for. I know we all want better than what we've been doing, but what coaches do you think would agree to take the HC job here with Jerry? Mike might be the last big name we get for a while. Sean isn't going to put up with Jerry. I know he was claiming interest in 2019, but how many times are we used as a way for players and coaches to get better deals? Sean McVay won't be coaching here.

The best case scenario is that maybe we get Quinn to stay and be the HC. However, I have a sinking feeling that we are going to have Kellen Moore be the next HC. Let's face it, he's the exact Yes Man that Jerry would want, and he'd be a way for Jerry to try to prove he made the right decision in elevating Jason Garrett when he did. He very well cannot rehire Jason Garrett, but I get the sense that Moore is being groomed for EXACTLY the same purpose.

If Mike gets the sack, Jerry might use that as a way to say big names don't work, so he'll be back to the Yes Man coaches. Guess who that favours. Also, look at the way that Kellen is being protected by Jerry. We all know Moore is in over his head. We all know Mike has more experience. Yet, Mike isn't able to call his own plays. I hope I'm wrong, but the signs are there. I see Kellen Moore succeeding Mike if he gets binned, and that would be a complete disaster. But, it'd be exactly what Jerry would do to prove that he knows football.
McCarthy won't get fired in 2022 or 2023. Stephen Jones won't pay him for 2 remaining seasons under contract while also having to pay a new HC.

Note: Garrett replaced with zero years remaining under contract...

True, but I still think after Mike, we will be getting Moore.

I'm fine with MM as coach. Going for it on 4th was the right call. The problem was the play calling. If we are going for it on 4th down then we should have ran on 3rd, instead we elect to pass both times when Pollard + Davis was gashing them at the end of the game.

I don't dislike the idea to go for it on 4th down in ot but the play call and the blocking failed

Fur sure, and I think Mike was upset with the playcall, like you said, because the call wasn't smart. We only needed a few yards. I'm not sure why we didn't just have Lamb run a slant. That's one of the easiest routes and ways to gain short yards.
