He's not being clever. He's telling you the truth.

He said the same of Garrett. Pink slip incoming.

This is Jerry trying to convince you that crap sandwiches are good for you.

 

[Hawkeye0202]

This could easily be a reference for another team to hire him ........remember he help Quinn get the Commander job.

We have a bright future if we just stay the course.

Apparently he felt good about all six of those double digit losses this year. Doubling down I am sure will pay off. Amiright?

Finish the race? The race For the Cowboys has been over for many weeks if not months.

 

[kskboys]

Told y'all.

And exactly what good would it do to fire him anyway? Who would you propose that would be better?

W/ Jerry in charge, MM is as good as it gets.

Jerry "I like the job that he's done."

I couldn't disagree more with that comment.

Bring him back, Jerry.

Todd France will ensure McCarthy becomes the highest paid coach ever. Why? Because Todd France owns Jerry in contract negotiations.

Are the Fan guys still softballing him right down the middle like they have since he threatened their jobs?

I've been on the fence about McCarthy. He's not the greatest coach in the world, but he isn't that bad either. In the right situation I think he could be successful. But lately I have been re-considering if Dallas is the right place for MM or if MM is the right coach for Dallas. Let's be honest first. Jerry has made it abundantly clear that he thinks he is in charge, including player decisions. He took responsibility for starting the two rookies on the OL and I will take him at his word. What that means is whoever replaces McCarthy will have to agree to Jerry's absurd level of control. I think that eliminates some of the best coaches who will want full control of the roster. So now answer the question. Who would be willing to take this job given the reality of Jerry pulling the strings? MM may be the best they can do. If Jerry is comfortable that MM will allow him to be the guy in front of the camera, then I think Jerry keeps him around. It will not shock me if MM is re-hired.

Of course this assumes MM wants the job. If Jerry gets wind MM does not want the job, Jerry will not offer it to him and then gaslight us into believing he was planning on moving on from Mike all along.

If MM does stay I hope he does two thing. First, he needs to stop designing his offense to get the ball to 2 players. He needs to spread it around more. The Cowboys offense - or any offense, does best when all skill position players are included in the game plan. Design plays to get different receiver open and then get them the ball. Don't just focus on CeeDee and Fergie, or Turpin. If you don't trust some receivers or TEs, then get new ones you do trust.

The other ting is run the football. the QB should not be the focus of every play unless he is Mahomes. If running isn't successful, the make it successful. Don't settle for throwing 40 times. Find out why it's not working and fix it. Try different players if its not working. When your running game is at the bottom of the NFL, it's you. Fix it.
