The problem is we really do not know how good Mike McCarthy is at this point.
We do not know how much of the credit or blame he deserves for the Cowboys wins and losses.
Quinn's defense won several games over the last couple of seasons.
Despite questionable playcalling, Kellen Moore's offense won several games over the last couple of seasons.
Would that have happened if the Cowboys had another head coach?
Would that have happened if McCarthy kept his first choice for defensive coordinator in Mike Nolan?
Is McCarthy a good coach?
.. or is he smart enough to surround himself with talented coaches to make himself look good?
.. or is he the brains behind everything and simply helped make the other coaches better?
I like McCarthy and for the first time since Parcells, I actually like watching the Dallas Cowboys head coach press conferences.
I just hope he turns out to be a vital piece of the equation and not just another footnote of failed coaching experiments in the post-Jimmy Johnson life of the Dallas Cowboys
