Mike McCarthy and reality

[My3Sons]

One of the few times the Cowboys were in a hurry up Sunday night was when we needed our HC to challenge a bad call on the field. No, hurrying into a failed 4th down attempt that turned it over to the Eagles in Cowboys territory was his priority.

He may run a good practice, but he is not known as a great in game coach. Think about this, how would MM look right now if we lost Dan Quinn last offseason.

The MVP of the Cowboys(Micah Parsons), has stated he LOVES Dan Quinn and wants to play for him for the rest of his career.

Would you keep MM over DQ if you had to make a choice between them?

Mike McCarthy is a big reason why Dan Quinn is back. I like McCarthy, he relies on his coaches to give him split second decisions and sometimes they're wrong. Maybe he should rely on his own eye more.
He's a good football coach, the best we've had since Parcells.

l like Quinn as a DC, not as a a HC and I think Dan Quinn is enjoying himself.

 

[DogFace]

Maybe let’s try to be positive ? We have a pretty good team.

Just kidding. Let’s nitpick it all.

 

[Doomsday101]

God I hope this team is not as divided as the Fan base. This is what Cowboy nation has deteriorated into

Remember that when Dan Quinn becomes head coach, his influence on the defense becomes more executive producer and less show runner.

See: Atlanta Falcons

This is funny...Mike Mccarthy bias aside has been a million times the head coach Dan Quinn has throughout their careers.

A guy is supposed to buzz down and let them know to challenge it. Ceedee didn't even look like he know he got it.


Dan Quinn has become overrated. Our defense in 2020 wasn't great but all the next coordinator had to do was go back to a 4-3 and get Jaylon Smith off the field..and guess what we'd be a solid defense He's a good coach but he inherited a talented bunch.

If the 4th down pass worked he would have be a genius, the concept was good , go hurry up so the Eagles couldn’t stack the box with big bodies and everyone thinks it’s a run up the gut or a qb sneak, the execution was poor. Should have worked.

Let’s keep them both.

Dan Quinn coached Matt Ryan to one Super Bowl in 5 tries

Mike McCarthy coached Aaron Rodgers to one Super Bowl in 12 tries.

McCarthy was dealt a way better hand at the most critical position on the field.

Was it MM the said go hurry up there. Or did Moore have complete control. And he made the decision.
I put the blame on Moore more so than MM. It was idiot Moore trying to be cute again, and yet again, failed.

It shouldn't have needed to work. The Cowboys should have had it. Just needed an NFL coach to challenge.

I just wish Moore had a boss that was in charge of the challenge flags and clock management.

Kyle Shanahan did. Also...coaches gotta stop being blamed for their players terrible performance.
Rodgers team got him 4-5 turnovers and he didn't do anything with them. They should have went to 2.


Not every coach is Bill Belicheck where they go and win multiple SB"s.

I think you are over thinking this.
I still say it was Moore that called the hurry up, therefore not giving anyone time to look at any replays.

That sequence alone was not why Dallas lost. Even if they got the 1st down, they still had to go like 60 plus yards to get a TD. And the way it was going, they still could have ended up punting.

No way.
Keep DQ whatever it takes.
No disrespect to Mac...
He has done a great job for the most part.
DQ has just become more vital to the success of the team.

Rodgers hasn't done anything since McCarthy left other than flame out in big playoff games.

Had it been in Philly territory I would have no issue with the call but from your own 35 yard line with inches to go? I was not thrilled with the call. There was too many things that can go wrong, batted ball, dropped pass or in this case play defended. With inches I go with Zeke to plow out inches. Because I disagree with a single call does not mean I have no faith in the coaches just mean I disagree with them on this call.

No doubt it was a very questionable decision based upon the field position, but the hurry up play call should have worked, the whole world thinking Zeke up the gut, just poor execution.

Don’t know which is worse….going for it on your own 30 on the road against a solid DL when it’s not near the end of the game, or the play they actually ran.
