Cause you all know that Jerry is going to use this as another excuse to not make the hard choice...and just resign Big Mike and probably on a discount.
If not for a muffed punt, it’s a 5 game winning streak with half the roster full of practice squad players.

That’s impressive, the team did not quit on him.

So yeah, I expect a new extension for Fat Mike.

McCarthy will be back, the team will surprise and go 11-6, we will finally get some lucky bounces, we will manage to beat one of the Packers, 49ers, or Eagles in the regular season, Dak will give some starry eyed interview about winning the Super Bowl, and people will start talking about us as a team to beat.

Then we will be absolutely hammered in the first round in the playoffs by a team with a younger coach that makes better and quicker adjustments, hungrier players, and better QB play.

As Taylor Swift said, I know it All Too Well.

He deserves to come back.

It’s clear now Dak should’ve been the one let go after this season.

Not his fault he was stuck with the biggest choke artist QB of all time and the woat GM
This is why it doesn’t matter who the HC will be… with Jerry on your back and Dak around your neck, no HC will want to come and jeopardize their career. Same old, same old.

I agree Rush isn’t better and the defense is better when Rush plays because they know points are usually at a premium so they have to lock in

With Dak they take risk because they know he can make up for it until he doesnt
When's the last time Dak made up a boat load of points? He's looked horrible since the GB playoff game last year.

Why is everyone so quick to forget the reason he was brought here? (To get us over the top in the playoffs), and then of course the GB Playoff game debacle? He absolutely does NOT deserve to be back......Having said all that, after tonight I do finally admit that more than likely he'll be back, With Zim......And I will also admit its pretty evident that this team hasnt quit, which is a major Plus/"Pro" in McCarthy's column.......But IMO, all the other negatives should still outweigh the positives and lead to yet another fresh start. I almost dont even care anymore though, smh.
The Green Bay slaughter was Quinn's fault. He made no adjustments, and his defense basically collapsed.

Hell we didn’t make the playoffs going to finish 3rd in the division deserves it just because we beat some really bad team s and 2 decent teams and you think he has earned it come on

He a good coach cooking with the groceries that Jerry and son bought him. He isn't the issue. Another coach isn't going to come in here and fix what multiple coaches in 30 years have not.

Unless Prime comes to town, nothing changes.

Doesn’t matter who the coach is as long as Jerry is in charge. And it could be worse than MM. Enjoy the victory and what will soon be the sweet silence of the off season.

Yup and keep the sane system and players. Honestly I’m more frustrated. Where was this effort in early blowouts. It’s like a joke to keep us burdened with Jerry doing bad stuff
Zimmer getting half a season to see how his defense best works is the biggest change.

5 years. 1 playoff win vs an awful team. We already knew Mike could win regular season games. The bar is so so so low.

I don't dislike Fat Mike. But he had me cursing him last night. With 12 seconds left in the half, no timeouts, and on 3rd down, why are we lining up to run a play? To get 4 more yards? The entire stadium and defense knew that. Only bad stuff can happen here. For what, 5 yards? Sure enough, Rush throws it deep. If Tolbert comes up with the catch the half is over. Just kick the FG. The Raiders lost last week in the same situation on a bad snap.

It could just be the practice squad players didn't quit on what could be their only opportunity. I wonder how many "made" players would have kept fighting at this point in the season. I am glad to see Cee Dee fight so maybe it is McCarthy.

Jerry sabotaged MM by making him a lameduck coach...I'm not a big fan, but he's better than Garrett and the team seems to be playing hard for him. Whoever it is, GO COWBOYS!

He wanted Dak back. That's why Dak is returning the favor saying out loud that he wants Mike back. So we're stuck with both of them unfortunately.
