Not sure why they even bothered to talk if they were just going to let him walk over a term limit.
I wasn't in the room but IMHO, they could have easily worked that out. Like agreeing on 3 years with an option for 2 more if his record was = to or > X# of wins/playoff wins etc..
Wouldn't surprise me if McCarthy was irked about no extension last year and having to coach a lame duck season. Probably wanted something more solid/guaranteed and Jerry balked.

Length of years figured to be a sticky point. Mike wants 4 or 5. Jerry wants 2 or 3.

A dumb reason not to keep the guy you supposedly believe in.

After 5 years Jerry isnt letting Mike walk because he wants an upgrade at HC. He is letting him go because after being strung out his final year, MM wouldnt agree to Jerrys lowball offer and terms.

Thats what happens when a coach has options. Now we get to see which coach is willing to accept JJs BS offer.
Get ready for Zimmer or Marvin Lewis or someone like Al Harris who hasnt even been a coordinator.

Jerry cant be gone soon enough.

think about the other openings...Jets - crap, Jax - probaby the best potential but its a hole, Chicago - wont be winning any time soon.

At least Dallas has a lot of cap money, a starting qb (hopefully), some very big pieces on both sides of the ball and the appeal of "dallas"....
Dallas, wont be winning anytime soon.

At least Chicago has rookie Caleb Williams. Even Jax has Trevor FWIW. We have a soon to be 10 yr vet who has only ever won 2 wildcard games.

I have a feeling it may be wonder boy. It has to be someone who believes they can fix Dak. Whoever it is it will be a upgrade to MM.
Yep, Jerry wants to look smart for extending Dak, so that will be his main focus...pushing KM up the list behind Gruden.

Lance goes to another team or stays here as a backup.

Not hard to figure out. He isnt a starting QB.

Could end up with? They could have last year. Instead we got Zeke.
Will Lance go with McCarthy? Will he sign with Dallas? Will he sign with a different team? If isn't hard to figure out, pick 1.

Gruden will work cheap just to get back after his problems so he may be the target.

Cowboys FAs will have Quinn and McCarthy to sign with, so those honest offers will lead to a repeat of last offseason.

Well you guys get what you wanted. Another head coach scapegoated and this one with a resume that very few of his era can match.

You have made your bed. Now you have to lay in it.

Seriously, I'll take your likes but you disgust me right now.
Dude was responsible for one of the worst playoff performances in Cowboys history. Good riddance.
